Full Job Description
About the Role

We're looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer to join our Hospitality Fulfillment team at SpotOn. Our domain focus on how customers' orders actually get to the kitchen and are prepared, so the work you'll be doing is critical for smooth restaurant operation. You'll work across various backend services and microfrontends to build features that power our Express POS.

The ideal candidate will be able to:
  • Take extreme ownership: You don't just close tickets; you own the outcome. If a feature breaks or a customer is stuck, you're the one who sees the fix through, regardless of where the problem sits in the stack.
  • Navigate real complexity: We aren't doing simple CRUD work. You will be untangling massive systems and solving high-stakes puzzles that require creative thinking and the grit to push through frustration.
  • Be a "whatever it takes" engineer: You are flexible. If the frontend lead is out or an infra fire starts, you're ready to jump in, learn what you don't know, and clear the path for the team.
  • Treat AI as a teammate: We use AI tools daily to move faster. You'll be expected to leverage these tools to solve "impossible" problems and keep our quality bar high.
  • Drive the team forward: You'll provide technical leadership, ensuring we're making smart decisions and addressing tech debt before it becomes a roadblock.

What skill are we searching for?
  • Real-world experience: You've spent at least 5 to 7 years building software that survives high-traffic, production environments.
  • Backend mastery: You are highly proficient in Golang and ideally also JS/TS.
  • AI fluency: You have already integrated AI into your workflow and know how to use it to write better code and debug complex systems.
  • Solid fundamentals: You have a deep understanding of data structures, algorithms, and design patterns that allow you to build for scale.
  • Strong communication: You have a solid command of English (min. B2).

Perfect candidate also has:
  • The "Figure it Out" gene: You actually enjoy the challenge of a problem that doesn't have a clear answer on the first page of a search result.
  • Full-stack flexibility: You aren't afraid of PHP if that's what's needed to get a project across the finish line.
  • Cloud and Infra comfort: You've spent enough time with AWS, Terraform, or Kubernetes to understand how your code lives in the wild.
  • A mentoring mindset: you naturally raise the bar for those around you through thoughtful code reviews and shared knowledge.


What's in it for you
Compensation
  • Our base pay range for this role is $123,000-175,000/year.
  • Please note the salary range listed is just one component of a competitive compensation package which includes a company stock plan.
  • Offers will be reflective of the candidate's location and experience.


Benefits

At SpotOn, we put people above everything else. We're known for our innovative software and technology solutions, but we stand out because of the hardworking humans behind the tech. We can't take care of our clients without taking care of our employees first, and that's why we invest in your wellbeing with a competitive benefits package designed to support your health, family, and future:
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Options: Nationwide plans to fit your personal healthcare needs.
  • HSA with Employer Match: High-deductible health plan enrollees receive an annual company contribution to their Health Savings Account
  • Company-Paid Life Insurance & Disability
  • 401(k) Retirement Savings & Annual Employer Match
  • Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)
  • Pre-Tax Commuter Benefits
  • Paid Parental Leave
  • Paid vacation, 10 company holidays (including 1 floating holiday), sick time, and volunteer time off
  • Monthly cell phone and internet stipend
  • Education reimbursement up to $2,000 per calendar year to assist with your professional development
  • Employee Resource Groups to build community and inclusion at work
