About The Position

Owner is building the AI-native system that replaces the many tools local business owners use to run their business, starting with restaurants. This system powers everything from the restaurant’s website, online ordering, CRM, POS, and more. Owner's product philosophy is that most small business software makes owners do the work to get what they want (sales growth and profit growth), whereas Owner does the work for them agentically. The system drives demand, converts it, and helps operators run their business day to day. The vision is to start by helping independent restaurants succeed online and then scale the solution into every other local business type. Since 2020, Owner has generated tens of millions in revenue and processed over a billion dollars of online orders, impacting 1 in 5 Americans. The team is in the low hundreds, with top talent from companies like Shopify, HubSpot, DoorDash, ServiceTitan, Rappi, Faire and Stripe, and plans to scale faster in 2026. Owner is a remote-first, global company headquartered in San Francisco, with a sales hub in Toronto. This specific role is 100% remote and can be based anywhere in the United States and Canada. The RestX team is building the autonomous operating system for restaurants, which detects issues using signals across fragmented systems, automates decisions at scale, and helps restaurants run with minimal manual intervention. This team owns ordering, fulfillment, restaurant operations including guest relationship management, and kitchen workflows – systems directly in the critical path for restaurant revenue and a stellar guest experience. They are looking for a Senior Full-Stack Engineer who cares deeply about the product experience and has the range to own it end-to-end, building mission-critical software systems that directly impact restaurant revenue and reputation.
