Staff Android Software Engineer, Off Premise Dining
Toast is driven by building the restaurant platform that helps restaurants adapt, take control, and get back to what they do best: building the businesses they love.
The POS app is built on a custom Android ROM and runs on custom hardware built by Toast. We offer a variety of devices of different form factors and the mobile app adapts to each of them. And since it’s the only app on the device (besides the default apps), our deployment model opens up a wide variety of both opportunities and challenges that make Android development at Toast a unique experience. Our tech recipe* includes mostly Kotlin, some Java, and a small number of RESTful calls to our AWS backend platform; the bulk of the data is automagically synchronized with the cloud by our secret sauce*. To configure POS features, users login to our React web UIs.
The functionality our team tackles involves in-restaurant takeout & delivery operations, including online ordering and third-party services (e.g. Doordash), such as displaying off-premises orders to staff, messaging guests about their orders, and communicating order data with internal and external services. While our team focuses on the POS, we do contribute to backend services, which are also a mix of Kotlin and Java, with React frontends.
Our team tackles a mix of technical, product, and UX challenges during projects like:
- Managing all off-premise orders on the POS
- Innovative integrations of third-party ordering (e.g. Doordash) and online ordering features with in-restaurant operations
