About Workplace Businesses across the globe are being challenged to adapt to shifting employee attitudes and preferences for hybrid work environments — part remote, part in-office. With this shift, companies are coming to us not just seeking space, but also the tools and solutions to bring their employees back to work safely and efficiently.
What You’ll achieve We are seeking engineers and leaders excited to build software experiences that help companies manage their employees’ workplace experiences and help employees successfully navigate and collaborate in hybrid or distributed working environments. You will partner with product, design, data, and research to build new software experiences that will be used by enterprise employees and companies around the world. This is an exciting opportunity for technologists with a love for map-based experiences, machine learning, and data visualization to break new ground on solving problems that are becoming increasingly relevant on a global scale.

WeWork is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action employer. We do not discriminate based upon gender, sexual orientation, marital or civil status, pregnancy (or pregnancy-related conditions), gender identity or expression, transgender status or gender reassignment, race, color, national origin or ancestry, citizenship, religion or religious beliefs, age, physical or mental disability, genetic information (including genetic testing and characteristics), military or veteran status, or any other grounds or characteristic that is protected under the law.
As part of our commitment to health and safety, WeWork - like a growing number of employers - is requiring all U.S. employees to be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 as a condition of employment, absent a legal exception for reasonable accommodation. We provide unvaccinated new hires a 45-day grace period after their start date to get fully vaccinated or, if eligible, obtain a reasonable accommodation. If you believe that a legal exception may apply to you, please still apply for any role(s) you are interested in and, if you are hired, you will receive instructions on how to request a reasonable accommodation after your start date. Please note that roles that require in-person work - currently, within our Community (excluding Member Experience), Facilities Management (including Security), Sales (excluding Sales Ops), and Member Technology teams - will not be eligible for work-from-home as an accommodation because it poses an undue hardship on our business.
