Description
At Too Good To Go, we have an ambitious mission: to inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste together.
More than 1/3 of all food produced in the world is wasted. And that has a huge impact on the health of our planet. 10% of greenhouse gas emissions come from food waste and loss.
Through our marketplace app, we connect businesses that have unsold, surplus food, with consumers who can buy and enjoy it at ⅓ of retail value. We are a certified B Corporation with a mission to empower everyone to take action against food waste. Alongside our marketplace app, we create educational tools, explore new business solutions, and influence legislation to help reduce food waste.
We’re growing fast: Our community of 120 million registered users and 180,000 active partners across 20 countries, have together already saved over 500 million meals from going to waste
In 2023, Too Good To Go was recognised on Fortune's acclaimed 'Change the World' list, named as one of Deloitte's 'Best Managed Companies' and won a coveted 'Cultural Impact Award' at the annual Apple App Store Awards.
The Role
We are building a brand-new engineering hub in London, and we are looking for foundational Senior Backend Software Engineers to help us kick it off. This is a unique opportunity: you will be joining a completely new team, building a new hub from scratch, and working remotely from the rest of our global Tech organisation.
You'll be an integral part of this new product team, so you will help define, build, and deliver our product features. You will work towards specific outcomes with the freedom and responsibility to figure out the best way to achieve them together with your team. Your mission will be to help refine, design, implement, deliver, and maintain an international top-class product, ensuring quality, maintainability, and sustainability.
As a senior member of this new team, you will serve as a technical anchor—taking full ownership of complex backend challenges, partnering closely with your Lead Engineer to set high quality standards, and helping guide mid-level engineers as the hub grows.
The Tech Stack
We have created a scalable Spring Boot Application running on Java 25 in Kubernetes, deployed in a multi-region setup in AWS. Developers are able to run a full development environment locally, which gives a great developer experience.

- Develop exciting new features for our customers and businesses who partner with us.
- Actively participate in your team’s agile development processes with a continuous improvement mindset.
- Strive to deliver international top-class products with maximum quality, maintainability and scalability.
- Take on additional tasks outside your current boundaries with help from your team to continue to grow and expand your skills.
- Take ownership of complex backend features end-to-end—driving efficient technical design, high test coverage, and smooth deployments in close collaboration with your Lead Engineer.
The ideal candidate
- A wealth of experience in Backend development with the Java ecosystem.
- Proven production experience with Java, SpringBoot, MySQL, Message System & GIT.
- Has worked with Domain Driven Design, and Clean, or Hexagonal Architecture.
- Knowledge of AWS services (SQS, SNS, S3…), ElasticSearch, Redis, Docker, Kubernetes.
- Experience with Restful APIs.
- Proven ability to break down ambiguous technical tasks into clean, production-ready code independently, while acting as a supportive mentor and reliable sounding board for mid-level engineers.
- Experience with building scalable solutions.
- Enjoys actively participating in a cross-functional product team.
- Takes pride in writing quality code.
