Backend Java Engineer

Company

EatClub is a fast-growing tech company with global ambitions. Founded in 2016 by hospitality insiders, including celebrity chef Marco Pierre White, our technology has transformed how people eat-out across Australia (and recently launched in the UK) and is used by over 3,000 restaurants, serving 2M+ happy customers.

Our mission within hospitality is to make venue revenue more predictable and profitable using data science and dynamic pricing; similar to the transformation witnessed across the hotel & airline and multiple other industries. For restaurants, we enable them to optimise spare capacity, launch real-time offers and fill tables otherwise gone empty. For customers, our software enables them to explore the best restaurants in their city and save up to 50% off the total bill.
