Mobile Software Engineer (Android) - Olo App

Olo is a leading SaaS platform accelerating digital transformation in the restaurant industry, by helping customers deliver more personalised and profitable guest experiences. As a result, our digital ordering, payment, and guest engagement solutions enable brands to do more with less and make every guest feel like a regular.

While our roots are in NYC, we’re intentionally investing in Belfast and Northern Ireland as a key hub, with an established leadership presence, a local team, and community for the long term. This role is fully remote, offering you flexibility to work from anywhere within NI.

Your new role

With the brand-new Olo app launching later this year, you’ll play an integral part in shaping next-gen features and bringing our post-MVP vision to life while also gathering feedback from the fast-growing user base and fixing bugs they report. You’ll help us plan for the feature roadmap of the app and provide input in the direction of both the iOS and Android codebases. You’ll have the support of a dedicated Mobile Engineering Manager for the Olo app and work alongside four highly experienced mobile engineers, three of whom are based in Northern Ireland.
