About CookUnity:
Food has lost its soul to modern convenience. And with it, it has lost the power to nourish, inspire, and connect us. So in 2018, CookUnity was founded as the first-of-its-kind platform that connects the world with the source of truly great food: chefs. Today, CookUnity delivers 50 million meals a year from the industry’s best chefs to homes all over the country. Fresh. Ready-to-eat. And crafted with the passion that nourishes body and soul.
Unwilling to stop there, CookUnity is expanding beyond delivery to become an ever-innovating marketplace focused on our singular mission: empower Chefs to nourish the world.
If that mission has you hungry in more ways than one, you’ve found the right job posting.
About the Team:
The Menu Team is part of CookUnity’s Marketplace Zone, which focuses on creating a seamless and scalable platform that connects chefs with consumers.

The team is responsible for two key areas:
- User-Facing Menu Experience: Provide the best menu exploration experience to our users across mobile and web. This involves experimentation and iteration in search, discovery, meal displays, and menu taxonomy to maximize engagement and satisfaction.

- Collaborate with frontend, mobile, and product teams to design and implement new menu-related features
- Optimize database queries and caching strategies for high-performance API responses
- Improve monitoring, observability, and logging for backend services
- Participate in code reviews and engineering discussions, contributing to technical best practices

- Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills for backend services and APIs
- Solid understanding of performance optimization, caching, and API response efficiency
