The opportunity
Toast creates technology to help restaurants and local businesses succeed in a digital world, helping business owners operate, increase sales, engage customers, and keep employees happy.
What you'll do
Scale and Reliability: The Orders API handles critical restaurant operations every day. Reliability is non-negotiable.
Order Lifecycle Impact: We own experiences across the entire order lifecycle, empowering innovation on top of our platform.
Platform Enablement: We’re not just serving end-users — we’re an internal platform that many other Toast teams build on, so the quality and clarity of what we ship compounds across the org.
Ownership and Growth: As a component owner, you’ll have real end-to-end responsibility for a meaningful piece of the system.
Design and implement new features that improve functionality and reliability for our customers and partners
Define and drive the testing strategy, ensuring quality through strong automated coverage
