Senior Engineering Manager – Full Stack AI Applications

About the company: 

At WizCommerce, we’re building the AI Operating System for Wholesale Distribution — transforming how manufacturers, wholesalers, and distributors sell, serve, and scale.

With a growing customer base across North America, WizCommerce helps B2B businesses move beyond disconnected systems and manual processes with an integrated, AI-powered platform.

Our platform brings together everything a wholesale business needs to sell smarter and faster. With WizCommerce, businesses can:

• Take orders easily — whether at a trade show, during customer visits, or online.

• Save hours of manual work by letting AI handle repetitive tasks like order entry or creating product content.

• Offer a modern shopping experience through their own branded online store.

• Access real-time insights on what’s selling, which customers to focus on, and where new opportunities lie.

The wholesale industry is at a turning point — outdated systems and offline workflows can no longer keep up. WizCommerce brings the speed, intelligence, and design quality of modern consumer experiences to the B2B world, helping companies operate more efficiently and profitably.

Backed by leading global investors including Peak XV Partners (formerly Sequoia Capital India), Z47 (formerly Matrix Partners), Blume Ventures, and Alpha Wave Global, we’re rapidly scaling and redefining how wholesale and distribution businesses sell and grow.

If you want to be part of a fast-growing team that’s disrupting a $20 trillion global industry, WizCommerce is the place to be.
