Senior Software Engineer

All Gravy is the AI-native people operating platform for hospitality and retail. 🥞 We're modernising how frontline teams work, replacing scattered tools and outdated systems with a single app that's actually built for the way people work & socialise today. Our AI Colleague gives staff instant answers & executes day-to-day tasks, freeing up managers to focus on people & customers instead of paperwork. We work with some of the most exciting brands in hospitality and retail, including Gail's, L'Osteria, Dishoom, Pizza Pilgrims, Ottolenghi, Q8 and 7-Eleven. Today over 2,000 restaurants and stores trust us to run their teams. We've grown 10x in two years and are accelerating into new markets. Our team spans a wide range of nationalities and backgrounds, united by one mission: to create better work lives for the 80% of the world that do not sit behind a desk. 🚀

🤩 ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for an ambitious Senior Software Engineer who will be a pivotal member of building and scaling the most critical parts of our product. This is a role for someone who has already made AI a core part of how they work. The kind of person who spots the problem worth solving and doesn't wait for permission to go after it. You're a builder who loves the pace of a startup or scale-up, where things move fast and ownership is real. As a Senior Engineer here, you won't just be maintaining a critical system, you'll be shaping how AI transforms what it can do.

🎯 WHAT YOU WILL DO

The ideal candidate possesses a versatile skill set, demonstrating capability across the entire spectrum of software development at All Gravy.

• AI-Native Development: A versatile understanding of how to leverage AI in your day-to-day development workflow. The best candidates are top-tier at working with AI tools, can demonstrate concrete ways they've integrated them into how they ship code, and actively contribute back to how the wider team adopts and improves its AI-assisted ways of working.
• Full-Stack Development: You will take ownership of features across the full application stack from the manager and employee-facing interfaces where schedules are built and shifts are picked up, to the robust, scalable back-end services and data layers that power them.
• Hands-On Technical Approach: Comfortable reading and writing code (ideally TypeScript/Node.js, given our stack), reviewing architecture, and working directly with infrastructure. You can ship a fix, not just file a ticket.
• Cross-Team Collaboration: Work closely with our product teams to ensure everything integrates harmoniously across the All Gravy ecosystem, and contribute to shared standards and architectural decisions.

We have a full-fledged TypeScript-based tech stack in All Gravy which means our current developer team seamlessly switches between development tasks. All Gravy is undergoing high growth hence the job and responsibilities will develop over time, and there will be plenty of opportunities for you to learn and grow.

🙌 YOU'LL THRIVE HERE IF YOU

We're looking for people with great energy, a good sense of humour, and a drive for getting things over the line. You think elegantly but act pragmatically, love being part of a team, and never stop learning

• Genuinely AI-native. You can walk us through exactly how you use AI tools today, which ones, in what situations, and what's changed about how you build. This is a core part of the role, not a checkbox.
• 5+ years of proven full-stack experience across React, React Native, TypeScript, and Node.js.
• Ability to design and architect highly available, fault-tolerant, and scalable distributed systems.
• Startup or scale-up background. You know what it means to move fast, make pragmatic calls, and revisit them when the time is right.
• Fluent English, spoken and written.
• Based within European time zones, whether from our Copenhagen or London office or remotely.

An advantage if you have experience in:

• NestJS
• MongoDB

💎 WHY ALL GRAVY

• Grow fast, for real. We promote from within, move quickly, and give you real responsibility from day one.
• AI at the center, not the side. We're not sprinkling AI on top, it's woven into everything we build. You'll use it, push it, and help define what it means for the future of work.
• Top equipment. You'll receive all new equipment to do your best work
• A culture that actually develops you. Honest feedback, active coaching, and the autonomy to experiment. We invest in you because your growth is our growth.
• Work that matters. Your work will directly impact the daily lives of millions of frontline workers.
• You'll work with people who've built, scaled, and won. Ex-founders, operators, all here because they want to do it again, bigger.
• The good stuff too. Prime office location, team lunches, Friday bars, padel tournaments, wine tastings, offsites, top-tier equipment, and a fridge that's always stocked. We work hard and celebrate harder.
