Why Deliveroo?

We obsess about building the future of food, whilst using our network as a force for good. We're at the forefront of an industry, powered by our market-leading technology and unrivalled network to bring incredible convenience and selection to our customers.

Working at Deliveroo is the perfect environment to build a definitive career, motivated by impact. Firstly, the impact that working here will have on your development, allowing you to grow faster than you might elsewhere; secondly, the impact that you can have on Deliveroo, leaving your mark as we scale; and finally, being part of something bigger, through the impact that we make together in our marketplace and communities.

What you'll do?

As a Frontend Web Engineer at Deliveroo, your individual work contributes to achieving goals in multiple teams. While you will work with your team and lead projects, some of your work will contribute outside of your direct remit. You will report to managers and group leads and together deliver the results.

Expectations:

Technical Execution:

You will improve code structure, architecture, review code of any scope produced by your team, as well as reviewing code from other teams. It will also include work to maximise the efficiency of your team by leading team project planning, foreseeing dependencies and risks, and constructively partnering with other disciplines (e.g. PM, Experience).

You'll aim to simplify the maintenance and operation of production systems, promoting visibility, operational readiness, and health of your team's systems.

Collaboration & Leadership:

As well as leading from the front regarding technical execution, you'll build relationships with other engineering teams and identify collaboration opportunities.

You'll break down large pieces of work, guide design and technical/implementation choices, and influence the roadmap within your team.

We want to emphasise that we don't expect you to meet all of the below but would love you to have experience in some of these areas.

  • Pride in readable, well-designed, well-tested software
  • Experience writing web-based applications in React and Next.js, and an ability to work with services written in Node.js
  • Experience writing cross-browser compatible and accessible UIs with internationalisation features
  • Familiarity and practical experience with frontend technologies (HTML, CSS, SCSS, JavaScript, TypeScript)
  • Familiarity and practical experience with web architecture at scale
  • Familiarity and practical experience with libraries such as React Router, TanStack Query, React Hook Form and Redux

Workplace & Diversity

At Deliveroo we know that people are the heart of the business and we prioritise their welfare. We offer multiple great benefits in areas including health, family, finance, community, convenience, growth, and relocation.

We believe a great workplace is one that represents the world we live in and how beautifully diverse it can be. That means we have no judgement when it comes to any one of the things that make you who you are - your gender, race, sexuality, religion, or a secret aversion to coriander. All you need is a passion for (most) food and a desire to be part of one of the fastest-growing startups in an exciting space.
