At Olo we develop an online food ordering platform used by many of the country's largest restaurant chains, reaching millions of consumers. Chances are if you've ordered directly from a restaurant brand's app or website, we've made that happen. As a distributed systems engineer on our team, you will architect, develop, scale, and monitor solutions, improvements, and services across our Olo Engage product suite. Our software products support our brands in harnessing guest data from across their tech stack to boost retention, lower acquisition costs, and do more with less. We handle restaurant event data in the scale of billions of events per month. Find out more at https://www.olo.com/engage.
