From distributed computing to large-scale system design, complex algorithms to beautiful user interfaces, we have teams working on every step of the journey to ensure we continue to offer our customers a growing selection of choice at the best price with a fantastic level of service.

We work with thousands of restaurants worldwide, from renowned local gems to your favourite chains, allowing them to open up a new revenue stream and reach new customers. Our restaurant partners, riders and customers are as passionate about food as we are, and if you want to make an impact on millions of users by solving some of the biggest technical challenges at great scale, come on board and join the ride.

At Deliveroo we're striving to build one of the world's best engineering organisations.

We're dedicated to building a collaborative and supportive culture. We set goals and objectives. We empower our engineers to find solutions to problems at great scale. We trust them to use their time wisely.

Our teams are solving unique and difficult problems at scale in an energetic and fast-paced environment. We're growing incredibly quickly and we need experienced engineers to help us scale.

Senior Engineers drive implementation within the Platform Engineering group, and these roles typically focus on one area of Platform expertise. Deliveroo is growing rapidly and our global infrastructure critically underpins this growth. Having a security, stable, highly available and performant cloud environment is a key focus for this role.

As a Senior Platform Engineer at Deliveroo, your individual work contributes to achieving cross-team goals and metrics. Occasionally you will lead work outside of the direct remit of your team benefitting other teams.

• Responsible for the end-to-end delivery of projects within the Platform space
• Designs solutions for projects on behalf of their team, including writing technical documentation
• Contributes to project planning, foreseeing dependencies and risks. Constructively partners with other disciplines to de-risk delivery (e.g. Product, Experience)
• Works with their team and adjacent teams (when relevant) to deliver projects and solve problems
• Leads the work of other engineers, breaks down projects and guides design and implementation choices

We want to emphasise that we don't expect you to meet all of the below but would love you to have experience in some of these areas.

• Pride in readable, well-designed, well-tested solutions
• Ability to take a lead on the direction for a technical area in the platform space (eg. Containers, Kafka, Networking)
• Extensive experience with infrastructure tooling, ideally Terraform
• A strong background in software engineering, preferably with Go and/or Python
• Proven leadership skills, including coaching, team-building and generally supporting peers and colleagues
• Proven ability to define and run projects from inception to delivery
• Proven ability to coordinate technical projects across multiple teams
• Proven system design experience
• Extensive experience with AWS cloud computing
• Experience with datastores, ideally PostgreSQL, DynamoDB and/or Redis
• Experience of working closely and building relationships with customer engineering groups

At Deliveroo we know that people are the heart of the business and we prioritise their welfare. We offer multiple great benefits in areas including health, family, finance, community, convenience, growth, time away and relocation.

We believe a great workplace is one that represents the world we live in and how beautifully diverse it can be. That means we have no judgement when it comes to any one of the things that make you who you are - your gender, race, sexuality, religion or a secret aversion to coriander.
