Chewy operates a large-scale e-commerce platform for pet products, supplies, and prescriptions, underpinned by a tech stack heavily weighted toward data infrastructure (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Kafka, dbt, Apache Airflow) and ML tooling (Qdrant, Pinecone, Milvus, FAISS). Current hiring focus is dominated by healthcare roles (70 openings) and operations (53), with much smaller engineering (26) and data (16) teams — a signal that the business is pivoting toward veterinary services and supply-chain optimization rather than platform scaling. Active projects span dynamic bidding algorithms, click-through prediction, and ads-ranking models, suggesting expansion into advertising as a revenue stream alongside core e-commerce.
