Our mission

Increase the value of the entire city by improving the shopping experience at the shops and services offered within Woven City

Our team aims to create more value between buyers and sellers by improving the shopping experience of the stores and services offered in Woven City.

We will be able to provide buyers with a more optimal and comfortable purchasing experience, and sellers with support that is close to the business they are aiming for.

We are looking for someone who has a strong sympathy for the project and the mission of the team, respects the team members and other stakeholders, explains their opinions, and can achieve it with high technology.

Our team is still in its infancy. Therefore, although there are many things to do, there are many cases where the method has not been decided. We welcome anyone who enjoys the challenge and has the courage to fail correctly.

We are looking for an engineer in backend services. In this role you will design and implement microservices, but not only that you will also decide development policies and processes as a senior engineer. You are required to explain your decisions clearly. And you will communicate with the other teams to build the shopping system. Many services need a shopping system, so you will be able to know other services in Woven City. Sometimes you are expected to have extensive knowledge of Japanese business practices and financial services. Woven City is a unique project, so nobody knows what to do to succeed. We need to fail early and work tenaciously with a positive mind.

If you are currently located outside of Japan we will set an interview over Google Hangout Meet or Skype.
