Job description

👋 About Us

sunday is building the fastest, simplest way to pay in restaurants. With a quick scan of a QR code, diners can pay, tip, and leave in about 10 seconds. We believe great products should feel obvious, not complicated, and we focus relentlessly on keeping things simple while earning trust from restaurants and guests at every interaction. Today, sunday powers payments in thousands of restaurants across the US, UK, and France, helping operators turn tables faster, increase tips, and unlock valuable insights. We push ourselves to go beyond what’s expected, building with ownership, moving fast, and scaling with ambition as we tackle our biggest growth opportunity in the US.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and deliver high-quality full-stack features, from Kotlin backend services to React.js frontend applications.

  • Write code using AI agents and help build a true agentic software factory.

  • Take ownership of complex topics related to software design, architecture, and service reliability.

  • Design solutions capable of running in production at scale.

  • The ability to reason about architecture, reliability, and technical trade-offs.

  • Strong business acumen: you understand the impact of your decisions and know how to prioritize what truly matters.

  • Fluency in both French and English, spoken and written.

What will set you apart:

  • Strong ownership: you tackle problems head-on rather than waiting for permission.

  • An entrepreneurial mindset, strong adaptability, and a willingness to thrive in ambiguous environments.

  • Independent thinking: you know how to reframe problems and find simple, original, evidence-based solutions.

  • A strong focus on impact, with the ability to make clear trade-offs and apply the 80/20 principle.

  • Positive energy, a collaborative mindset, and a desire to help the entire team succeed beyond your own scope.

  • Intellectual curiosity, the ability to learn quickly, and a genuine desire to keep improving.

Compensation, Perks & Benefits

  • A competitive package, depending on experience, plus stock options.

  • Unlimited paid time off.

  • Significant ownership and numerous opportunities for career growth.

  • 100% employer-paid health insurance coverage for you and your children.

  • Beautiful offices in the heart of Paris, in the Sentier district.

  • A hybrid working model combining office presence and remote work.

  • €50 per month towards remote-working expenses.
