About Us

Tebi is creating the first Connected Restaurant Management System that makes hospitality flow. In one seamless platform, Tebi embeds sales, reservations, kitchen prep, payments, and all the data that powers it, creating smooth service and intuitive insights.

Founded by Arnout Schuijff, co-founder of Adyen, and backed by €50 million in funding from Index Ventures & CapitalG, Tebi is built in service of hospitality first. Thousands of restaurants, cafés, bars, and coffee shops across the Netherlands, UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, Denmark and Finland already love running on Tebi.

About the role:

We’re looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to help us build powerful, delightful features that empower restaurant teams. You’ll work across the stack to bring new ideas to life, whether it’s building intuitive interfaces, scalable backend services, or the glue in between that makes everything feel seamless.

You’ll collaborate closely with design, product, and other engineers to rapidly ship impactful features. As an early team member, you’ll also help shape our engineering culture, tooling, and technical direction.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, loves solving real user problems, and wants to help modernize an underserved industry with thoughtful, elegant software.

Responsibilities:

• Build, test, and ship end-to-end features across the stack—from APIs and data models.

• Collaborate with designers and PMs to translate user needs into working, intuitive product experiences

• Own projects from concept to launch and beyond, balancing speed, quality, and scalability

• Improve system performance and reliability across frontend and backend systems

• Help evolve our codebase and technical architecture as we scale

• Contribute to shared tooling, component libraries, and best practices that level up the whole team

What you’ll need:

• 8+ years of professional experience as a fullstack or backend engineer in a product-focused environment

• Deep expertise in either Kotlin, Java, or Scala.

• Significant experience with distributed systems. You know how to build and maintain scalable, resilient services that work together.

• Experience with event-driven architectures (e.g., Kafka).

• Good experience of relational databases, such as Postgres.

• Comfortable working with APIs, relational databases, and docker

• A product mindset, you care about the why behind what you’re building and optimizing for user impact

• Ability to work collaboratively across functions and communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders

• Strong attention to detail and a sense of pride in crafting great user experiences

What is Restaurant Software?

Restaurants and other merchants use various software systems such as Point of Sale (POS), Reservations, Kitchen Display Systems (KDS), Payments, Inventory, Staffing, and the list goes on. These systems all need to speak to each other which they frequently don’t. It’s a mess, and we are fixing it.

From buying a croissant at a cafe to having dinner with friends, it’s a €4 Trillion+ global market and a critical part of everyday life in today's economy.

How we use AI at Tebi

We use AI the way our merchants use Tebi, to cut out the friction and get to what matters faster. We believe in a world where AI increases quality, efficiency and speed.

At Tebi, AI isn't a policy or a checkbox, it's just part of how we work. It helps us write, analyse, build, and improve but doesn’t make the last call. If there's a smarter way to do something, we want to find it.
