THIS IS A HYBRID SCHEDULE (2X/WEEK) ROLE PLANNED FOR OUR DOWNTOWN TORONTO, CANADA OFFICE.
With millions of diners and tens of thousands of restaurant partners around the world, OpenTable is an industry leader in online
reservations. Our technology helps restaurants focus on what matters most – their guests, their teams, and their business – while
giving diners a reliable, delightful way to find the perfect restaurant for any occasion.
Every OpenTable employee has a tangible impact, contributing to a global team that includes our sister brand KAYAK and its
portfolio of travel products. We believe hospitality is about taking care of others, and that ethos shapes both our products and
how we work together.
The Diner Core Availability team builds and operates the systems that power availability search for the core diner
experience—delivering fast, reliable booking options across our global network.
We serve millions of diners, handle several thousands of searches per second, and operate under strict low-latency and
high-reliability requirements. The team owns the end-to-end lifecycle of availability queries: from ingesting upstream changes
(inventory, policies, events) through event-driven pipelines, to maintaining highly-optimized in-memory and distributed cache
layers, to responding to real-time search requests from web and mobile clients.
We’re looking for a Staff Engineer who applies a deep understanding of the underlying technologies and dependencies to solve
problems. They help raise the bar on performance, reliability, and simplicity as we scale availability search at OpenTable.
Technologies you’ll work with include C#/.NET, Redis, in-memory and distributed caches, RESTful APIs, and Kafka-based event-driven
architectures (EDA).
You’ll be both a hands-on engineer and a technical leader: writing code, writing technical design docs, reviewing design docs, and
owning solutions end-to-end from design through rollout, observability, and ongoing iteration.

This work is profoundly impactful. The features you build directly shape the experience of our top-tier restaurant partners, who frequently come to us with requests that influence our roadmap. You won't just be building features; you'll be influencing the user experience and technical foundation of a product central to both OpenTable and our partners' success. This role offers a unique mix of autonomy and ownership: you will have a real voice in both design and product decisions, ensuring we deliver powerful control without overwhelming complexity. YOUR ROLE: DEEP TECHNICAL OWNERSHIP AND EXECUTION As a Staff Frontend Engineer in Toronto, you will serve as a core technical leader and hands-on architect, responsible for tackling the most complex and ambiguous engineering challenges within the Availability Planning system. Your primary contribution will be through deep, direct technical execution, system design, and the implementation of large-scale features. Your key responsibilities will center on: * Hands-On System Building: You will actively write and review mission-critical code in React, Redux, TypeScript, and JavaScript. This role requires continuous deep engagement with the codebase to drive performance and maintainability. * Architectural Ownership: Define and implement the technical vision for the Availability Planning system. You will own system design and execution, focusing on creating intuitive and scalable UI architectures that can manage immense complexity. * Frontend Mastery & Quality: Design and build elegant, reusable abstractions and an integrated layer between the UI and backend. You will set a high standard for quality, driving sophisticated testing strategies using React Testing Library, Jest, and Cypress. * Technical Elevation: Act as a force multiplier, elevating the coding standards and practices of the entire team through meticulous code reviews and mentorship. REQUIREMENTS You are a highly experienced engineer ready to translate strategic goals into elegant, production-ready code while leading technical strategy. * Extensive Expertise: 7+ years of professional software development experience in a collaborative team environment, with a significant track record in building and scaling large-scale frontend applications. * Code Mastery: Deep, expert-level proficiency in JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js, and React. You write code that is readable and maintainable, and you take the time to learn things you are working on that you don’t understand. * Strategic Architecture: Proven experience investing deeply in code architecture and driving multi-year technical roadmaps on large, established codebases. You excel at creating generic and reusable code. * Strategic Execution: Exceptional ability to drive large, cross-functional projects from the early planning stage all the way into production. * Communication and Collaboration: The ability to articulate complex technical trade-offs to product and design partners, as well as experience collaborating closely with designers (e.g., using Figma). * Quality Champion: A passion for rigorous quality control and pixel-perfect design implementation through the use of both automated and manual testing as well as careful code reviews. * Ownership Mindset: You embrace full ownership over your systems and adopt modern tools (like AI helpers) to enhance efficiency, while maintaining rigorous standards for code quality and accuracy. Benefits and Perks * Generous paid vacation + time off for your birthday * Work from (almost) anywhere for up to 20 days per year * Focus on mental health and well-being: * Company-paid therapy sessions through SpringHealth * Company-paid subscription to Headspace * Annual company-wide week off a year - the whole team fully recharges (and returns without a pile-up of work!) * Paid parental leave * Paid volunteer time * Focus on your career growth: * Development Dollars * Leadership development * Access to thousands of on-demand e-learnings * Travel Discounts * Employee Resource Groups * Private health and dental insurance * Life and Disability insurance There are a variety of factors that go into determining a compensation range, including but not limited to external market benchmark data, geographic location, and years of experience sought/required. We offer a competitive base salary and benefits including: health benefits; flexible spending account; retirement benefits; life insurance; paid time off (including PTO, paid sick leave, medical leave, bereavement leave, floating holidays and paid holidays); and parental leave benefits. This role is eligible to be considered for an annual bonus and equity grant. Work Environment & Flexibility At OpenTable, we pride ourselves on fostering a global and dynamic work environment. As a team member with us, you will benefit from a schedule tailored to accommodate a global workforce operating across multiple time zones. While the majority of your responsibilities may align with conventional business hours, there will be instances where you are expected to manage communications - via calls, Slack messages, or emails - outside of regular working hours to effectively collaborate with international colleagues, respond to restaurant partners, and/or address urgent matters. OpenTable will always abide by and consider local laws and regulations. Inclusion We’re committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels they belong and can thrive. We know the best ideas come when we bring different voices to the table, so we're building a team as dynamic as the diners and restaurants we serve—and fostering a culture where everyone feels welcome to be themselves.
