60 Jerry Software Engineer Jobs Hiring Near You

Who we are 

In the past, to be a successful restaurateur, you simply had to have a passion for food and a passion for people - but to succeed as a digital restaurateur you also need to have a passion for technology. We believe in the joy of serving others, and that's why we created Otter - to help restaurateurs succeed in online food delivery. Restaurants around the world, both large and small, including Chick-fil-A, Ben & Jerry's, KFC, and Eataly trust our software to power their delivery business. We increase sales, reduce order issues, and decrease delivery headaches.

What you'll do

At Otter Grow, we are a fast-paced, product-focused engineering team building the future of Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) dining. Otter Grow provides the end-to-end platform for direct ordering, merchant storefront configurations, and hyper-targeted customer engagement.

As a backend generalist on this team, you will design and scale the services that power our customizable front-end web experiences, facility direct ordering, and advanced merchant tools, ensuring a seamless experience for customers.

Core Responsibilities

• Architecture, build, and maintain highly scalable backend services in Java to power our direct ordering ecosystem and storefront configuration tools.
• Design and optimize robust, flexible APIs
• Work closely with front-end engineers, product managers, and designers to translate merchant and consumer needs into reliable backend logic.

 

What we are looking for

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience is required.
• 3+ years of professional software engineering experience.
• Deep understanding of backend system design, APIs, data stores, microservices, concurrency, and distributed systems

• Experience with relational and/or NoSQL databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis)
• Experience with cloud platforms like AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure

Preferred Qualifications

• Working on D2C, e-commerce, or transactional product engineering teams.
• Experience building microservices that handle complex merchant configurations, ordering states, or payment flows.
• A full-stack background or comfort working closely with front-end technologies. While this is a backend-heavy generalist role, an understanding of how backend systems impact front-end web customization and performance is highly valued.
• Passion for product impact and building systems that directly support customers and operators
