About TORI

We're TORI — a venture-backed startup transforming drive-thrus with our proprietary conversational AI assistant that takes orders with speed and efficiency. We're looking for a high-energy, mission-driven engineer who wants to build fast, learn constantly, and help define the future of food tech.

This is not just another dev job — it's a chance to be one of the first engineers at a high-growth startup, work directly with the Head of Engineering, Head of Product, and CEO, and leave your fingerprints on a product already deployed at scale.

What You'll Do

  • Architect, build, and launch core components of TORI's AI-driven ordering platform across web and edge environments
  • Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and customer teams to ship fast and iterate often
  • Apply AI and large language models (LLMs) to power real-world voice interactions
  • Make foundational technology decisions with long-term impact on scalability and reliability
  • Dive into real-world customer problems, fix issues fast, and help create a category-defining experience
  • Influence company culture, hiring practices, and technical direction as we grow

What We're Looking For

  • Entrepreneurial mindset and hunger to own projects end-to-end
  • Strong backend experience with Node.js, PostgreSQL, and cloud infrastructure (AWS or similar)
  • Solid frontend skills with HTML/CSS/JavaScript and modern frameworks
  • Experience building systems that integrate AI/ML, third-party APIs, and multi-platform frontends
  • Comfort working with devops tools like Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines
  • Strong computer science fundamentals and a bias toward shipping product
  • Bonus: experience in restaurant tech, voice AI, or high-scale transactional systems

Why Join TORI

  • Work with a team of experienced builders and restaurant operators
  • Competitive salary + meaningful equity
  • Medical, Dental, Vision insurance
  • Fully remote, with optional in-person meetups
  • Opportunity to shape the tech stack, the product, and the culture
