Senior Software Engineer - Front of House (Frontend)

Toronto, Canada

This will be a remote role to start, with plans to transition to hybrid in-office 2x/week located in downtown Toronto at 134 Peter Street.

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Front of House web team, you’ll build and improve the software that restaurant staff use to run service in real time. The team’s work spans critical operational workflows across reservations and related Front of House experiences, including areas such as seating, timeline, reservation editing, waitlist workflows, and in-house reservation management.

This is a strong fit for someone who enjoys complex product domains, values clean and maintainable code, and can help drive projects from technical planning through production rollout.

Requirements

• You are humble and enjoy working with developers, designers and product owners of all career levels
• You have 5 or more years of full-time professional experience as a software developer in a team environment, including extensive experience with React
• You have strong communication skills, especially the ability to represent the technical trade-offs between different potential solutions
• You can drive projects from technical planning all the way to production
• You write code that is readable and maintainable. You create abstractions and find opportunities for code reuse.
• You carefully test your work for bugs while ensuring consistency with requirements and designs. You also build automated tests and understand how to use them properly.
• You have experience implementing designs and collaborating with designers using tools like Figma
• You are comfortable providing feedback to others via a code review process, and receiving feedback others have provided to you via this process
• You adopt AI technologies to enhance your workflow, while also taking ownership of the results produced by these technologies and carefully checking them for accuracy.
• Generous paid vacation + time off for your birthday
• Work from (almost) anywhere for up to 20 days per year
• Focus on mental health and well-being:
  • Company-paid therapy sessions through SpringHealth
  • Company-paid subscription to Headspace
  • Annual company-wide week off a year - the whole team fully recharges (and returns without a pile-up of work!)
• Paid parental leave
• Focus on your career growth:
  • Development Dollars
  • Leadership development
  • Access to thousands of on-demand e-learnings
• Travel Discounts
• Employee Resource Groups
• Private health and dental insurance
• Life and Disability insurance

The expected compensation range for this Toronto, Canada based role is $155,000 - $175,000 CAD. There are a variety of factors that go into determining a compensation range, including but not limited to external market benchmark data, geographic location, and years of experience sought/required.

We offer a competitive base salary and benefits including: health benefits; flexible spending account; retirement benefits; life insurance; paid time off (including PTO, paid sick leave, medical leave, bereavement leave, floating holidays and paid holidays); and parental leave benefits. This role is eligible to be considered for an annual bonus and equity grant.

At OpenTable, we pride ourselves on fostering a global and dynamic work environment. As a team member with us, you will benefit from a schedule tailored to accommodate a global workforce operating across multiple time zones. While the majority of your responsibilities may align with conventional business hours, there will be instances where you are expected to manage communications - via calls, Slack messages, or emails - outside of regular working hours to effectively collaborate with international colleagues, respond to restaurant partners, and/or address urgent matters. OpenTable will always abide by and consider local laws and regulations.

We’re committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels they belong and can thrive. We know the best ideas come when we bring different voices to the table, so we’re building a team as dynamic as the diners and restaurants we serve—and fostering a culture where everyone feels welcome to be themselves.
