About the role

Who Are We❓

We Are Foodics! a leading restaurant management ecosystem and payment tech provider. Founded in 2014 with headquarter in Riyadh and offices across 5 countries, including UAE, Egypt, Jordan and Kuwait. We are currently serving customers and partners in over 35 different countries worldwide. Our innovative products have successfully processed over 6 billion (yes, billion with a B) orders so far! making Foodics one of the most rapidly evolving SaaS companies to ever emerge from the MENA region. Also Foodics has achieved three rounds of funding, with the latest raising $170 million in the largest SaaS funding round in MENA, boosting its innovation capabilities to better serve business owners.

What you're really being hired for is the second act. As the product matures into a real line of business at Foodics, you're the person who builds the team around it - hiring, structure, process, the whole thing. We want that team built by someone who wrote the first version of the system, not someone who inherited it.

If you're looking to step away from the keyboard, this isn't the role. If you want to build something from zero and then build the team that owns it, it is.

What Will You Do❓

  • Write production code as a core contributor, not as a manager who occasionally picks up a ticket
  • Own significant parts of the system end to end: core modules, the transactional foundation, regulatory compliance, integration s…
