Toast is building the restaurant platform that helps restaurants adapt, take control, and get back to what they do best: running the businesses they love. We’ve grown into a leading hospitality software company in the U.S., and are now entering our next phase of growth—one defined by scale, complexity, and a new class of enterprise customers.
As our customers grow, so do the demands on our platform. Operators who once managed a handful of locations are rapidly expanding, while new enterprise brands are adopting Toast to power increasingly complex operations. Supporting this evolution requires more robust, enterprise-grade capabilities—especially in how menus are defined, managed, and scaled across locations.
At Toast, the menu is more than a list of items—it’s the clearest expression of a restaurant’s brand and the foundation of its operations. It serves as the shared language between guests, servers, and the kitchen, while also acting as both a storefront and a guide across digital ordering experiences. Behind the scenes, the menu is the central hub of restaurant configuration: it determines what guests can order, how items are presented and priced, how orders are routed and fulfilled, and how data is structured for reporting. And because menus are constantly evolving—with new items, pricing changes, and operational optimizations—they must be both powerful and easy to adapt.
We build for the full spectrum of customers, from single-location cafés to enterprise brands with thousands of locations. That means creating a menu platform that is both highly flexible and able to scale with ease. Our team is responsible for making that possible—evolving our menu data models, building APIs for first- and third-party integrations (like DoorDash), and designing intuitive tools that support a wide range of use cases, from complex verticals like pizza to our expanding retail platform.
Within this space, we’re looking for a Software Engineering Manager to lead our Bangalore Menus team. In this role, you’ll guide a team delivering high-impact features that directly shape the experience of every Toast customer. You’ll be responsible not just for what the team builds, but how it builds—driving clarity, improving execution, and maintaining a high bar for quality.
You’re someone who enjoys developing engineers and building strong, collaborative teams. You connect day-to-day work to broader outcomes, helping your team understand the impact of what they’re building while identifying opportunities to deliver more effectively. You bring enough technical depth to provide clear direction and sound judgment, while still empowering engineers to take ownership.
Day to day, your work will span reviewing design documents and pull requests, facilitating cross-team discussions, partnering with product and architecture on roadmaps, and supporting your team’s growth through regular 1:1s and feedback.
Join us to shape a critical domain that touches every Toast customer.
