Sauce is a premier restaurant technology platform that helps businesses grow with our Commission-Free Delivery & Pickup structure and proprietary delivery optimization technology. We are serving a 105 billion dollar US local restaurant business. Headquartered in NYC and Tel-Aviv, Sauce wants restaurants to fulfill their highest potential, this means giving local establishments everything they need to connect directly with their customers. The Sauce team pools together decades of restaurant tech experience, along with seasoned tech, sales, marketing, product and operations executives who produce an industry-changing delivery system for successful local restaurants and chains.

We're looking for a sharp, fast-moving engineer to build and maintain AI-powered tools for our operations team. You'll work directly with business stakeholders, turn feedback into shipped code within hours, and own full cycles - from scoping to deployment. Multiple releases per day is the norm, not the exception. This is a high-autonomy role. You'll get requirements directly from ops and business leads.

What You'll Do:

  • Build internal tools and automation workflows for the operations team using Cursor and n8n
  • Fix bugs and ship features in fast iterations - 3-4 production releases per day
  • Design and deploy AI agents that automate repetitive operational tasks end-to-end
  • Integrate with third-party APIs and internal systems without handholding
  • Own QA - test your releases against real business logic before pushing
  • Talk directly with ops users and translate vague feedback into precise solutions

What You Bring:

  • Cursor.ai / Other AI IDE -expert-level usage, this is your primary build tool
  • N8N / Other Agentic Workflow tools -complex multi-step workflows, not just simple triggers
  • OpenAI / LLM APIs — agents, tool use, structured outputs, prompt engineering
  • Full-stack: Node.js + React or equivalent
  • PostgreSQL or similar relational database
  • REST API design and third-party integrations
  • Cloud deployment (Azure / AWS / GCP)
  • Strong architecture instincts -you extend cleanly, never break existing systems
  • Strong security awareness - use emerging technologies but keep the system secure at the same time
  • Nice to have:

  • HubSpot API
  • MongoDB
  • Chrome extensions
  • playwright / browser automation
  • Internal ops tooling experience
  • Restaurant or logistics domain knowledge

Who you are:

  • Strong architect who also ships fast — you don't sacrifice one for the other
  • Young mindset: energized by speed, iteration, and direct ownership
  • Experienced working directly with non-technical stakeholders — no PM buffer needed
  • Available and responsive beyond standard hours when production issues arise
  • Based in LATAM with full overlap with US business hours (EST / PST)
  • You've built tools real teams use daily — not just side projects and demos

Requested Technology & Equipment:

  • Personal computer or laptop with up-to-date software
  • High-speed internet connection
  • Keyboard, mouse, working webcam, and headset with a microphone
  • Primary 24” monitor (with an additional 24” monitor preferred)

What We Offer:

  • Strong & Competitive Compensation Package
  • Flexible Work Environment
  • 10 Paid Personal/Vacation Days
  • 5 Paid Sick Days
  • Quarterly Team Dinners & Events!
  • The Opportunity to Build Something that Changes the Delivery Tech Industry for the Better!
