Toast creates technology to help restaurants and local businesses succeed in a digital world, helping business owners operate, increase sales, engage customers, and keep employees happy.

We are seeking a seasoned Engineering Manager for Toast Now - the team putting the power of the entire Toast platform into the pockets of restaurant managers and operators. Our ToastNow app has a rating of 4.9 stars. Our goal is to deliver native app experiences that empower restaurant operators to manage their business in real-time, whether from the restaurant floor, the back office, or their couch at home.

We're delivering an innovative new product on modern mobile technologies. Our teams are very agile and extremely customer-focused.

We have high standards for customer satisfaction, and we strive to deliver high quality features in rapid iterative cycles.

  • Hire and develop new team members
  • Coach individuals in professional and technical development
  • Champion the use of AI tools and practices to accelerate development, improve team velocity, and pioneer new ways of building - setting the bar for what it means to be an AI-first engineering organization.

What you'll need to thrive (Requirements)

  • Experience leading and mentoring successful teams to drive predictable business results
  • Experience delivering a high quality iOS and/or Android experience - both inside the app and across the native stack
  • Experience managing a mix of core contributions & away team engagements
  • Experience delivering products on technologies such as GraphQL and microservices
  • Not afraid to get hands-on or go deep to help the team reach its goals - and you encourage high agency and exploring creative outlets
  • A desire to build diverse teams that win together and prioritize customer success

Staying safe while you apply

  • Never pay to apply, interview or accept an offer — ROLIVA never asks you for payment to apply to a job.
  • Apply only through the official “Apply on the employer’s site” button, on the employer’s own site, and check that a recruiter’s email uses that employer’s own domain rather than a free email address.
  • Be cautious of an offer made with no real interview, or pressure to decide quickly or share financial details early.
