Ilir Sela started Slice with the belief that local pizzerias deserve all of the advantages of major franchises without compromising their independence. Starting with his family’s pizzerias, we now empower over tens of thousands of restaurants with the technology, services, and collective power that owners need to better serve their digitally minded customers and build lasting businesses. We’re growing and adding more talent to help fulfil this valuable mission. That’s where you come in.

This position is open to applicants across all of the UK on a remote basis, with the physical office located in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

The Role

Our team brings together talented developers from across the US, UK, and Eastern Europe, each contributing unique perspectives and expertise to drive success.
