The backend written in ROR - is no child’s play. It throws up multiple challenges that include handling complex menu structures, dish level search and complex geo spatial queries for better results.

All of which continuously strive to make the food ordering process easier and convenient. At TinyOwl we use agile development, which means you develop, test, deploy, get feedback from users and go back to development.

Required Skills:

A capability for a great learning curve

A clear understanding of data structures, algorithms and databases

Being a food lover would be an added bonus. An appreciation for XKCD comics doesn’t hurt either!
