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

More than 40% of all food produced in the world is wasted and retailers lose between 1-3% of their annual sales due to food waste. All of this waste has a huge impact on the health of our planet, with 10% of greenhouse gas emissions coming from food waste. 

The Retail Technologies teams at Too Good To Go are working on our software solution used directly by Retailers to track and redistribute surplus food seamlessly. This B2B app, connected to our consumer marketplace, helps stores better manage expiry dates by: detecting products that are about to expire, recommending what to do with them, and facilitating their redistribution (via discounting for in-store customers, donations to charities, or sales on the marketplace). This business app is already used by tens of thousands of store employees every day, and soon to be hundreds of thousands by the end of the year. 

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 are growing fast, with a community of 102 million users in 19 countries. Together, we have saved more than 369 million meals from going to waste since we started - but there’s still a lot more we want to achieve.  

The Role

We are looking for a Frontend Engineer, to be a part of our Product Teams that define, build and deliver our product features. Working in a product team means you will work towards specific outcomes with the freedom and responsibility to figure out the best route to achieve them together with the other Engineers and Product members of the Team.

Your mission will be to develop and maintain our Too Good To Go Platform solution, which is used by over 1,000 retailers daily, to support them in their efforts to combat food waste, positively impact their sales and reach an even bigger audience.

As a Frontend Engineer, you will develop the web portal our partners use to configure and follow key metrics for the Platform. You will also work with our design team to deliver the best possible frontend experience for our key accounts and define the best architecture for the Single-page application with the separation of concerns in mind.

The Tech Stack

  • We use Django as a backend to create our Apis. 
  • For the frontend, we use React with Redux. All our JS code is written with Typescript. 
  • We previously used Django templates but are in the process of migrating all pages. 

The Ideal candidate 

  • Knowledge of React and TypeScript
  • Strong understanding of frontend design patterns and architectures
  • Familiarity with Redux or other state management libraries
  • Proficiency in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (ES6+)
  • Experience with frontend testing frameworks 
  • Excellent problem-solving and communication skills
  • Ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional teams

Our values

  • We fight together: food waste is a big beast to fight. We can do it if we fight together as Waste Warriors with no ego. We believe in a #oneteam.
  • We raise the bar: we always push for more. We work smart, smash barriers, and elevate one another.
  • We keep it simple: our ambitions are bold but our solutions are simple
  • We build a legacy: we’re proud of the change we’re driving.
  • We care: we always look out for each other. Caring is also about the way we do business. We do the right thing.

What we offer

  • An opportunity to have a huge impact, knowing what you help design will be used daily by hundreds of thousands of store employees daily, enabling them to save millions of food items per day.
  • A rare opportunity to work in a global social impact company (and certified B Corp!) where you can see a real and tangible impact in your role.
  • An autonomous environment, with several opportunities to contribute, build on experience and take ownership of your work in a way that works for you. 
  • A nice bunch of colleagues in the Paris office 🙂 (~100+ people) and beyond them 1,300+ colleagues across 19 countries that are on the same important mission.
  • Opportunity to influence our product, design and ways of working, every day.
  • An informal atmosphere, with a strong, values-driven team culture where we celebrate successes and socialise with colleagues that care to offer 
  • Relative flexibility at work and advanced employee benefits
