Job Description

About the Role As a Founding Engineer at BiteSight, you’ll be key in building
and scaling the technical infrastructure that changes the way people order
food delivery forever. You’ll work on everything from enhancing our
recommendation engine and adding social features to improving video encoding
and building the tools that make sure our users get their orders—all to create
the food delivery experience of today and tomorrow. You’ll be joining a small,
passionate team of foodies where you’ll have a direct impact on the trajectory
and culture of the company. Your contributions will help shape not just our
technology, but the future of BiteSight itself. About You We don’t care about
your age or how many years of experience you have—we’re looking for someone
who’s a cracked full-stack engineer, ready to tackle whatever challenges we
throw your way. If you’ve got the skills and the drive to figure things out
and make them work, you’re exactly who we want. You love building and have
experience across the stack working with technologies including Python,
PostgreSQL, and hopefully Swift/Swift UI. You thrive in a fast-paced, startup
environment and are excited by the ambiguity and challenges that come with
building something from the ground up. You have a passion for food and
technology, and you’re eager to create a product that transforms the food
delivery experience for users. You’re a clear thinker and communicator, able
to articulate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical
people. Why does the world need another food delivery app? We started
BiteSight because of our deeply held belief that a better food delivery
experience can and will exist. Short-form video is the most dominant form of
content consumption in modern history and allows us to process information in
a way not possible through photos. Plus, with ratings on traditional food
delivery apps becoming increasingly inflated, the need for real
recommendations from people we trust has never been greater. As the largest
delivery companies focus on expanding into other verticals, we will keep
innovating and delivering the experience we know our users deserve. People
used to ask why cars were needed when horses and buggies were already fast
enough. If you want to create the future, join BiteSight. Your life at
BiteSight When you join our team as a founding engineer, you’ll have the
opportunity to: Take ownership of key features and systems that will define
the future of food delivery. Work closely with a passionate and talented team
to shape the direction of the company. Join a well-funded startup backed by
top investors like Y-Combinator, SurgePoint Capital, and industry leaders from
Airbnb, Delivery Hero, and Starbucks. Benefits Competitive salary & equity
