Senior Full Stack Engineer, Help Center

Описание вакансии

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.

The Help Center team is transforming how Toast customers get support through self-service. We build the systems and experiences that power knowledge discovery, case creation, support workflows, and proactive guidance across Toast’s product surfaces—helping restaurants find the right answers quickly, resolve issues independently when possible, and seamlessly connect to the right support channel when needed.

This is a high-leverage domain at the intersection of product, support, and AI. The Help Center is not just a content site—it’s a dynamic, deeply integrated platform that connects customer context (account, devices, subscriptions), intelligent knowledge retrieval via Toast IQ, and our omnichannel support infrastructure. The systems we build directly influence deflection, resolution speed, customer effort, and overall satisfaction at scale.

As a Senior Software Engineer on Help Center, you’ll operate as a full-stack engineer building customer-facing experiences and the backend services that power them. You’ll design and evolve APIs, workflows, and UI experiences that shape how millions of support interactions begin—ensuring they are context-aware, performant, resilient, and deeply integrated with Toast’s broader support ecosystem.

If you’re motivated by building highly visible product surfaces, excited to connect frontend experience with scalable backend architecture, and eager to shape the future of intelligent self-service at Toast, this role offers meaningful scope and impact.

• Mentor and support other engineers through code reviews, pairing, and technical guidance, contributing to a culture of quality and continuous improvement.
• Participate in technical design and architecture discussions, helping shape team-level technical direction and tradeoffs.
• Collaborate with team to plan and estimate work

What you'll need to thrive (Requirements)

• 5+ years of experience in software engineering, with a strong background building and maintaining production systems using Java, Kotlin, or other object-oriented languages.
• Strong hands-on experience with modern frontend frameworks such as React
• Proficient with modern API standards and technologies (e.g. REST, GraphQL)
• Proficient with AI tooling such as Cursor, Claude, and MCP servers
• Proven ability to own complex features or projects end-to-end, from design through production and iteration.
• Demonstrated ability to deliver high-impact, scalable solutions in complex, multi-product environments
• Strong leadership and mentoring skills
• Ability to collaborate effectively across teams and communicate technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical partners.
