Senior Software Engineer, Marketing Automation

At Olo we develop an online food ordering platform used by many of the country's largest restaurant chains, reaching millions of consumers. Chances are if you've ordered directly from a restaurant brand's app or website, we've made that happen.

As a full-stack engineer on our team, you will architect, develop, scale, and monitor solutions, improvements, and services across our Olo Engage marketing suite. Our software products support our brands in harnessing guest data to market and engage with their guests to boost retention, lower acquisition costs, and do more with less. We handle restaurant marketing messages on the scale of billions per year. Find out more at https://www.olo.com/engage
