At Blackbird, we believe every guest should feel like a VIP the moment they walk into a restaurant. Whether it's last-minute tables, welcome drinks, off-menu items, or exclusive perks, we're building a platform that helps restaurants identify, connect with, and reward their guests in meaningful and personalized ways. Our vision? The more you check in at your favorite spots, the more you unlock—from unique rewards to seamless direct messaging for reservations. With each visit, you'll earn $FLY, our universal rewards currency, which you can use across our network of outstanding restaurants. As a Senior Backend Engineer, you'll be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining our core APIs. You'll work closely with product managers, designers, and fellow engineers to define and execute the technical vision behind our payments and loyalty platforms. You'll contribute to key architectural decisions, help establish engineering best practices, and play a critical role in scaling the platform. We're looking for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, high-ownership environment and is excited to build products from the ground up.
