Yumpingo is a food intelligence business that provides deep insights to restaurants based on real-time reviews from diners, collected through our devices at the end of the meal. We already have a fleet of devices being used by consumers right now in some of the most well known branded restaurants across the UK, including Wagamama, Jamie’s Italian and Wahaca.
Yumpingo is based in at our offices in Covent Garden, in a dynamic working environment. Our team culture is to be friendly, to challenge one another respectfully whilst being open to challenge yourself, and to be pragmatic about how to achieve our goals. Everyone in the business is serious about building a global company and is proud of their role in that.
About you
Your challenge is to develop the platform to support a fast-growing business that has an opportunity to transform the eating out sector globally.
Your role will be to join a team of five experienced and talented developers to enable Yumpingo to support one thousand restaurants by the end of this year across the UK and USA. That means broadening the product set to fulfil a diverse range of customer needs and developing systems that scale.
You will be working on both server and client sides. Your APIs will collect and process data from diners and third-parties to generate insights for restaurants. On the front end you’ll be building browser and native apps that help restaurants develop their menus, manage their operations and engage with their guests.
You’ll be working across our full product set and throughout the product lifecycle – from ideation, to new features, testing, deployment and bug fixes.
You’ll be part of a growing team and will be able to make the difference. You will have the chance to learn new technologies, so you should have the willingness to learn new skills and extend your knowledge further.
We’re looking for someone technically astute that’s able to communicate with other team members and execs in the business. The opportunity is to shape and build a product used by millions of diners around the world, and help restaurants serve more food people love.
Skills and requirements
We are primarily seeking backend skills, but if you can also work on the frontend that would be a bonus.
You must have at least 3-5 years experience with Nodejs, MongoDB and MySQL and Github. On the frontend we work with Angular 5+. We use a lot of TypeScript and you’ll get some exposure and native Android development if you like.
