Lead Engineer - ResX

ResX is an innovative platform revolutionizing last-minute dining experiences in New York and London, with plans for expansion. As their first in-house technical leader, you'll join a dynamic environment where your work directly impacts how people experience dining in major cities. The role combines technical leadership with product development, requiring expertise in full-stack development, particularly with TypeScript, React Native, Node.js, and AWS infrastructure.

The position offers a unique opportunity to shape both technical architecture and company culture, working directly with founders to build a product that transforms how people make spontaneous dining plans. You'll be responsible for evolving the platform's architecture, implementing new features, and establishing technical standards while collaborating with an offshore development team.

This role is perfect for someone who combines technical excellence with a passion for food culture and startup energy. You'll be working on a platform that's already live and growing, with real users actively booking and sharing reservations. The position requires a balance of hands-on coding, strategic thinking, and leadership skills, as you'll be laying the groundwork for future team expansion.

The compensation package includes a competitive salary range of $180k-$220k, meaningful equity, and the opportunity to work remotely while being based near a major food city. You'll have significant influence over product direction and company strategy, making this an ideal role for someone who wants to be at the intersection of technology and food culture, building something that brings joy to tens of thousands of users.

If you're someone who gets excited about both technical challenges and creating exceptional user experiences, and you have a genuine passion for food and restaurants, this role offers the chance to make a meaningful impact in the restaurant technology space while working with a motivated, founder-led team.
