Millions of diners and thousands of restaurants around the globe use our products. If you are excited by constantly meaningful engineering processes and can deliver exceptional quality in a fast-paced, agile environment, we'd like to meet you. Bonus points if you love restaurants too.

What You'll Work On

You will be a Senior Software Engineer working on the Foundations Team. The Foundations team is the engine responsible for building and maintaining the platform that powers our Restaurant frontend ecosystem.

This is a high-impact role where you'll work on developer tools, libraries, design systems and platform architecture that improve developer experience and velocity on the Restaurant teams and can be adopted across the organisation. The scope is FullStack across the Frontend and Backend-For-Frontend systems.

You will work closely with developers across multiple teams to drive the evolution of our Restaurant platform. If you have a strong appetite for building high-quality systems, and working with the community to drive technology standards, we want to hear from you.

Requirements

  • You have 5 or more years of full-time professional experience working in a team environment
  • You are an expert in JavaScript, Typescript, Node.js, React, Frontend build tools (webpack, Vite, etc.) and Testing using tools like Jest and Cypress

  • You adopt emerging AI technologies like Claude and Cursor to enhance your workflow and automate recurring and repetitive tasks, while also taking ownership of the results produced by these technologies and carefully checking them for accuracy.

Bonus

  • You have previously built design systems or component libraries at scale
  • You have an understanding of accessibility standards and implementation

Work Environment & Flexibility

At OpenTable, we pride ourselves on fostering a global and dynamic work environment. As a team member with us, you will benefit from a schedule tailored to accommodate a global workforce operating across multiple time zones. While the majority of your responsibilities may align with conventional business hours, there will be instances where you are expected to manage communications - via calls, Slack messages, or emails - outside of regular working hours to effectively collaborate with international colleagues, respond to restaurant partners, and/or address urgent matters. OpenTable will always abide by and consider local laws and regulations.

Inclusion

We're committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels they belong and can thrive. We know the best ideas come when we bring different voices to the table, so we're building a team as dynamic as the diners and restaurants we serve—and fostering a culture where everyone feels welcome to be themselves.
