More about Your team

At Wrike, every team member’s input counts—our Scrum teams (with FE, BE, QA, UI, UX, and a PO) drive our projects forward. Backend engineers in product teams work on a mix of business logic and technical challenges, while technical teams support internal tooling, CI/CD, and developer experience. We invest in our architecture, ship code daily with minimal merge conflicts, and welcome backend engineers to suggest improvements, tackle technical enhancements, and help shape product plans alongside POs. As we move toward a microservice architecture, our product teams enjoy more ownership and flexibility with ongoing support from the technical teams. Our mission is to make things simpler and more powerful for clients of all sizes.
