Now, more than ever, the Toast team is committed to our customers. We’re taking steps to help restaurants navigate these unprecedented times with technology, resources, and community. Our focus is on building the restaurant platform that helps restaurants adapt, take control, and get back to what they do best: building the businesses they love. And because our technology is purpose-built for restaurants, by restaurant people, restaurants can trust that we’ll deliver on their needs for today while investing in experiences that will power their restaurant of the future.

As a Front-End Web Developer you will have an opportunity to develop interactive web experiences, build and expand on the Toast Marketing web properties, and assist in conversion rate optimization of our sales funnel.  The ideal candidate will have experience building interactive web pages using tools like Three.js, GSAP, D3.js, or others; have an understanding of web development in a PHP-based CMS, and possess strong communication in order to be able to effectively deliver on cross-team marketing initiatives.

While it is critically important to understand the “how” as a front-end developer on the marketing team, it is equally important to understand the “why” behind the projects you will be working on. You’re a perfect fit for this role if you are a detail-oriented problem solver, who can work and contribute to the marketing team not only as a developer, but as a resource to help provide feedback and insights into how we meet and exceed our team goals.
