Distributed Systems Engineer - Data Platform (Delivery, Database, Retrieval)
Join Cloudflare as a Distributed Systems Engineer to design and maintain scalable systems that handle massive data volumes, ensuring real-time visibility for customers.
7shifts is a scheduling and payroll platform designed to help restaurant teams thrive. With an easy-to-use app and industry-specific solutions, 7shifts saves time, reduces errors, and helps keep costs in check for over 55,000 restaurants. Our mission is to simplify team management and improve performance for restaurants, with a long-term vision of creating a thriving restaurant industry through the power of connected & engaged teams.
As an Intermediate Software Developer, Mid-Market at 7shifts, you'll be one of the founding engineers on our mid-market squad - the team responsible for building the foundational systems that serve restaurant groups with real complexity: multiple locations, layered permissions, and the need for rollup visibility across their entire operation. You're a full-cycle builder, taking features from technical design to deployment, owning your work end-to-end and making pragmatic technical decisions that ship. You'll work closely with a product counterpart, the data team, and report into a Director of Software Development. AI is part of the toolkit here — you use it actively, you know when to reach for it, and you hold the bar on what ships.
The work is greenfield in the places that count. You'll contribute to defining the data structures that power rollup reporting for multi-location operators and help build a permissions and authorization system that properly supports role-based access control (RBAC) at scale. The expectation is a beta of rollup reports delivered across a few dimensions and the architectural path for the permissions system defined and in early development. This is not a backlog of tickets. It's a chance to help shape systems used every day by over 1.5 million restaurant workers.
