Requirements
We are looking for a Software Engineer to join our passionate, lean, agile, fast-growing, evolving
and tech-loving team on a permanent basis. The projects we are working on are innovative and
will change the fast-casual dining experience forever.
As a Software Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, developing, deploying and

training, conferences and great opportunities for advancement as we grow our team.
You'll be comfortable working independently on backend and frontend tickets and can run

optimise and troubleshoot for continued reliability and performance.

About the Locate, Payment and Menu Team
Our team brings together three critical domains of the Nando's eCommerce platform. The Locate
domain is key to discovering restaurant capabilities during online ordering and third-party
integrations, helping communicate to our customers and other systems what a restaurant can
offer. The Menu domain's primary objective is to support the business in presenting menu items
digitally, effectively translating the physical menu into a seamless digital experience. The
Payment domain covers everything related to getting money in for our eCommerce journeys,
making integration with our payment provider a critical responsibility.
As a member of our team, you will play a crucial role in developing and enhancing the digital
experience across these domains. Your primary responsibility will be to work on end-to-end
projects, providing APIs and connecting them with the frontend experience on both web and app
platforms. Collaboration with other domain teams within the Customer Digital space will be a key
aspect of your role, ensuring smooth integration and leveraging collective expertise to deliver the
overall customer experience. You will be responsible for developing elegant solutions to match
multi-variant business requirements and building high-throughput systems to support our
