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.
As a fundamental pillar of the platform, Horizon enables different business models within CookUnity, ensuring that users can seamlessly subscribe to plans, manage their preferences, and successfully place their orders.
The team is responsible for two key areas:
By combining a strong user experience focus with backend robustness, Horizon plays a vital role in shaping the way users interact with CookUnity and ensuring operational stability across the platform.
As a Staff Full Stack Engineer on the Horizons Squad, you will play a crucial role in leading technical initiatives, driving architectural decisions, and mentoring engineers as we scale our user experiences. You’ll work on building and optimizing backend services and APIs that power CookUnity’s experience. This role involves working on the Server-Driven UI (SDUI) service within our Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) architecture, as well as developing and maintaining backend services and databases.
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced engineer who thrives on complexity and enjoys designing scalable, resilient, and high-performing backend systems. You will collaborate closely with engineering leadership, product managers, and cross-functional teams—including Data teams—to build and improve mission-critical infrastructure that enables personalized user experiences across our platform.
We’re looking for someone who can bring strong system design expertise, lead projects from concept to deployment, and set a high technical bar for the team while driving forward best practices in software engineering.
We believe great leadership starts with alignment on vision, values, and ways of working. To give you deeper insight into who we are and what we’re looking for, we invite you to explore: CookUnity's Leadership Principles – The values and behaviors that guide how we operate, collaborate, and scale.
