We’re building Boston’s next great tech company - come be a part of it! ezCater was founded by two software engineers and serial entrepreneurs in 2007. Today, we have the only nationwide online marketplace for business catering in the United States, a $23.9 billion market. Our 3.3M+ on-time ratings and reviews, our 60K+ caterers and restaurants, and our 5-star customer service make it superbly easy for business people to find and order great food for their meetings and events. We’re backed by Insight Venture Partners, Iconiq Capital, and Wellington Management - we're on a path to $2B in 2020, and we'll get there - especially if you come help us.

At ezCater, we care a lot about great design. We’re especially proud of the number of times the adjective ‘easy’ appears in our TrustPilot reviews. (In case you’re wondering – nearly 2X as often as any other adjective – and the next most common adjective is ‘great’). We believe that the design of our product plays a huge role in that. Building great web and mobile apps that our customers and caterers love to use is a top priority – come join our team and help us keep those great reviews coming!
