Software Development Engineers- Backend

Technology is the backbone and the biggest differentiator of any consumer-centric internet business. Most
of the high growth consumer-based internet companies (e.g. Amazon - Retail, Netflix - Entertainment/
Media, Uber - Mobility etc) have constantly been disrupting their respective industries by powering their
end to end business processes and products by solving business and customer problems with the help of
new-age and scalable technologies. The restaurant industry still remains the major consumer-centric
industry where online penetration and automations are minuscule. Our goal is simple – to change this
incumbent mode of business in the food space.

Today, with 3500+ virtual / delivery only internet restaurants in 40 cities across India, Indonesia, UAE and
UK with 15+ brands (Faasos, Behrouz Biryani, Oven Story pizza etc), Rebel Foods is the world’s largest
and fastest growing internet restaurant company. Online Food Services (FoodTech) could be broken into
Food Discovery (commerce), Preparation (manufacturing/SCM) & Delivery (logistics) platforms and each
of these vertical/platform has many use cases which need to be solved at scale. Many companies
(Swiggy, Zomato, DoorDash, Delivery Hero, Gojek etc) are solving the use cases to some extent in Food-
Discovery and Food-Delivery Tech. Food-Preparation Tech remains old world solutions. While we
collaborate with many of these companies across the world, we solve the customer problems in food
space of all these verticals in an integrated fashion. As a software engineer, you will have interesting
opportunities in building/architecting/re-architecting different backend and frontend systems. You will get a
chance to work on different open-source, cloud, mobile etc tech stacks depending on your strengths.
