Let's fix hospitality, for good.

Hospitality is tough – margins are thin, waste is high, and teams are stretched.

But it doesn't have to be this hard.

That's why we built Nory.

Our CEO, Conor, knows the pain first‑hand.

After founding and scaling Mad Egg in Ireland, he got fed up with juggling "market‑leading" systems, clunky spreadsheets, and endless printouts.

So he set out to build the tool he wished he’d had from day one.

Nory is an all‑knowing restaurant management system.

It blends real‑time data with AI predictive analytics, giving operators control of their margins.

From food prep to forecasting, it's operational intelligence that helps restaurants run with consistency, certainty, and profit.

The result?

Thriving restaurants, better jobs, less waste, healthier margins.

Learn more about what we are building here.

And we're just getting started.

Fresh off a Series B led by Kinnevik, we've grown to 100+ people across Ireland, the UK, Spain and recently, New York – and demand is scaling faster than we ever imagined.

The role We're looking for a Staff Engineer to own the problems that actually move the business: the features and initiatives we're betting on, not just the ones that keep things running.

This is a backend‑leaning full‑stack role.

Your centre of gravity is backend systems, architecture, and complex product development, with the range to contribute across the stack and help lay the foundations of our AI‑native platform.

You won't just solve hard technical problems.

You'll help decide which ones are worth solving, shape how we approach them, and bring others with you.

Strong technical instincts and sharp product thinking both matter here in equal measure.

You must have the right to work in the UK or the EU without sponsorship to be considered for this role.

What you'll be doing: Our teams are cross‑functional with clear ownership.

You'll take on the highest‑impact technical and product priorities: the ones driving ARR, shaping how we differentiate, and defining what Nory becomes over the next few years.

Own the hardest problems.

The features and initiatives we're betting the business on, from problem framing through to execution and iteration.

Not just the complex, but the consequential.

Work directly with operators and PMs to shape what gets built.

You'll talk to restaurant operators, understand what's actually broken, and use that to change direction, not just validate what was already planned.

Shape direction, not just delivery.

Define the technical approach, sequence the work, influence the roadmap.

Your engineering judgment should change what gets built, not just how.

Drive cross‑team alignment.

Own initiatives that cut across squads.

Make sure decisions
