About the Role

We are looking for an exceptional Software Engineer to join our team in New York or Toronto and help us bring our UI to the next level so we can serve more guests and more restaurants.

In order to provide a seamless experience both to guests and to restaurant brands, our platform has to communicate with a broad and ever-growing array of external services. We have a modular plug-n-play architecture that makes it easy to add any new integration from Point of Sale systems, to loyalty platforms, to payments processors. We also have a completely customizable guest UI that can be deployed to every restaurant in seconds. And it's all built using React, Node.js, and MongoDB. There is never a lack of interesting challenges in need of inventive solutions, and we’d love to have you experimenting alongside us.
