This job opportunity is working for one of the most exciting early-stage foodtech startups in London right now, building the operational and logistics infrastructure behind modern workplace catering. Having rapidly scaled and tripled revenue over the past two years, they’re now hiring a Senior Full Stack Engineer to help build the next generation of the platform from the ground up.

This is a genuinely high-impact opportunity within a fast‑growing startup that is still early enough for individual hires to have real influence over the product, technology and wider company direction. You won’t be joining a heavily layered corporate environment or maintaining legacy systems with little visibility over impact. The team is lean, collaborative and highly product‑focused, with close working relationships across founders, product, engineering and operations.

What’s on the table:

  • Build products and systems from the ground up
  • Shape how the platform evolves as the business scales
  • Solve complex real‑world operational problems
  • Influence product direction and decision‑making
  • Operate with high ownership and autonomy
  • Work closely with founders and senior stakeholders

The environment suits people who enjoy startup pace, ambiguity and ownership, and who are motivated by building meaningful products within ambitious, fast‑moving teams. It’s particularly well suited to individuals who prefer execution over bureaucracy, enjoy solving operational and workflow challenges, and want to help shape not just a product, but how a business grows.

You’ll be working across:

  • Payments & operational workflows
  • Platform scalability & infrastructure
  • Strong commercial experience building production software within startup, scale‑up or product‑led environments
  • Solid full stack engineering capability across modern frontend and backend systems
  • Commercial Node.js experience building scalable APIs and backend services
  • Experience working with SQL databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL
  • Comfortable owning features end‑to‑end from concept through to production
  • Experience working closely with Product, Operations or commercial stakeholders
  • Strong understanding of system performance, scalability and reliability
