Job Description


Senior/Staff Backend Software Engineer

Location: Seattle | On-Site


About the Role:

We're building the infrastructure that powers the $100B U.S. online food delivery market. Our platform gives food and beverage operators the kitchen infrastructure and software they need to expand their operations with minimal upfront capital. We're $850M funded and operating at the intersection of real estate, logistics, AI, and robotics.


We're hiring a senior to staff level Backend Engineers in Seattle who are excited to contribute across the stack—whether your strength is infrastructure, platform, or product-facing systems. Your work will be mission-critical: the systems you build and optimize power real-world operations at massive scale, directly affecting how restaurants grow and how customers eat.


What You'll Do

  • Design, implement, and optimize backend systems that power mission-critical, high-scale applications across our platform
  • Build and maintain RESTful APIs, microservices, and distributed systems that support food operators and delivery workflows at scale
  • Work across relational and NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis) to ensure performance, reliability, and data integrity
  • Deploy and manage services on cloud infrastructure (AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure) with an eye toward uptime and operational excellence
  • Debug complex production issues and drive improvements in system reliability and performance—with a clear articulation of business impact
  • Collaborate across engineering and product teams, contributing to architecture decisions and mentoring where applicable


Why This Seat

  • $850M raised company operating at genuine scale—your backend work affects real restaurant operations and millions of end consumers
  • Broad technical scope: you can specialize in infrastructure, platform, or product-facing development depending on your strengths
  • Stable, well-resourced company with the backing and runway to invest in serious engineering
  • Relocation support available for individuals and families—we're committed to getting the right people here


You'll Thrive Here If You

  • Have 5+ years of backend software engineering experience, with a track record of building and operating production systems at scale
  • Come from a high-growth tech startup, unicorn, or top-tier public tech company—you know what it takes to build systems that don't break under pressure
  • Are proficient in Java or Go and can hit the ground running in a modern backend codebase
  • Have solid experience with relational and/or NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis) and understand how to design for performance
  • Bring strong debugging and problem-solving instincts—you don't just fix bugs, you understand root cause and communicate impact clearly
  • Are ready and excited to be in the office 5 days a week in a collaborative, in-person engineering culture


Nice-to-Haves

  • Hands-on experience with Docker and Kubernetes for containerization and orchestration
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and modern DevOps practices
  • Exposure to large-scale data processing or event-driven architectures
  • Leadership experience—leading team projects, driving technical decisions, or mentoring junior engineers
  • Experience with cloud platforms: AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure


What We Offer

  • Competitive base salary + equity!
  • Full relocation support for individuals and families
  • On-site environment with a large, cross-functional engineering org working on genuinely hard problems
  • Opportunity to work across infrastructure, platform, or product depending on your background and interests


Must-Haves (Logistics)

  • Based in or willing to relocate to Seattle; on-site 5 days/week required
  • Degree in Computer Science or a STEM field (required)
  • No more than two job changes in the past five years—tenure and stability matter here
  • Work authorization in the U.S.
