At Too Good To Go, we have an ambitious goal: to inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste together.

40% of all food produced in the world is wasted. And that has a huge impact on the health of our planet, with 10% of greenhouse gas emissions coming from food waste.

We’re more than an app: we are a certified B Corporation with a mission to empower everyone to take action against food waste, so alongside our marketplace app, we create educational tools, explore new business solutions - such as our Retail Technologies offering, and influence legislation to help reduce food waste.

We’re growing fast: Our community of 127 million registered users and 253,000 active partners across 20 countries, have together already prevented 489+ million meals from going to waste - avoiding over 1.322.000 tonnes of CO2e!

The Role

We are building a brand-new engineering hub in London, and we are looking for foundational Frontend Software Engineers to help us kick it off. This is a unique opportunity: you will be joining a completely new team, building a new hub from scratch, and working remotely from the rest of our global Tech organisation.

As an integral part of this new product team, you will help define, build, and deliver our product features. You will work towards specific outcomes with the freedom and responsibility to figure out the best way to achieve them together with your team. Your mission will be to help refine, design, implement, deliver, and maintain an international top-class product, ensuring quality, maintainability, and sustainability.

The Tech Stack

We have created a single-page React application localized into multiple languages with TypeScript, RTK Query, MUI, and react-router. Developers typically run the SPA locally with Vite or Webpack DevServer (including hot module replacement) against endpoints on test servers.

Responsibilities

• Build and evolve our frontend applications and user-facing infrastructure to stay ahead of our growth curve.
• Develop exciting new features for our customers, partner businesses, and internal systems to improve usability and operational efficiency.

The Ideal Candidate

• Strong experience in modern frontend web development.
• Proven production experience with JavaScript, TypeScript, DOM manipulation, HTML, and CSS/MUI.
• Deep understanding of React.js, its core principles (state, props, context, hooks), and modern architectural patterns.
• Experience with state management solutions (e.g., Redux / RTK Query, React Context API) and client-side routing.
• Experience with common frontend tooling, testing, and CI frameworks (e.g., Vite/Webpack, NPM, ESLint, Jest, Playwright).
• Proven success in building scalable, responsive visual interfaces with strong cross-browser compatibility and user experience design sensibilities.
• Familiarity with RESTful APIs, modern integration patterns, and code versioning tools like Git.
• Enjoys actively participating in a cross-functional product team and takes pride in writing clean, high-quality code.

• We win together: Food waste is a big beast to fight. We believe in a #oneteam.
