Running a food business is hard, too hard. About 2/3 of brick and mortar restaurants and bakeries fail within their first year, putting these types of businesses in the same risk category as startups. It is insane that that is the case.
However, during COVID, as people were stuck at home, a new model for selling food emerged: people making and selling food in their home through social media via pre-order pickup. These new businesses opened pre-orders for a brief period at the beginning of the week and had their customers come to pickup their food at the end of the week. This seemingly small change has massive implications. By running on a pre-order pickup model, these chefs and bakers solved many of the problems traditional brick and mortars faced:
- No ingredient waste or need to forecast demand.
- Significantly less labor needed, a single creator can take the orders, make them, and hand them off to the customer over the course of the week.
- No need for an expensive lease: customers can pickup from the creator's house or a local business they partner with.
- Zero startup cost, anyone can start small and organically grow without needing to invest over $100,000 to start a traditional brick and mortar.
As we saw this trend develop, we spoke to the people behind these businesses and found out that many of them were making upwards of 50% margins on their food sales, 10x the average of 5% for a standard brick and mortar.
However, there was one big problem: no product existed to sell food this way. These businesses were taking orders via DMs, Google Sheets, or hacking the functionality of a Square or Ecommerce website to post their sales. They were spending most of their time trying to organize orders, remind customers about pickups, chasing down venmo payments, and tabulating spreadsheets. They were hitting a glass ceiling.
By building the foundational tool for this new model, we have the opportunity to fundamentally change the food industry for the better: increasing the diversity and accessibility of food by making it possible for anyone to start a food business.
The OpportunityWe are hiring an engineer with experience working across our stack who craves an environment where they can have full ownership over the features they build. In this role, you will have the opportunity to build out end-to-end features as well as participate in the ideation and design of a product that thousands of people rely on to be the backbone of their business.

Our philosophy of engineering
Hotplate's engineering team is small, and as we scale we want to keep it that way. Every engineer operates in a full stack capacity. Features are owned by individuals, so even though we all have our strengths, each of us pushes code to all layers of the app. We find this increases our velocity, results in better decision-making before and during feature development, and is a forcing function for us to grow as full stack contributors. If this is an environment in which you think you would thrive, we would love for you to apply
Our Team & Culture
We are a lean team devoted to pushing ourselves outside our comfort zone to constantly learn and improve, and look for candidates that do the same. We challenge each others ideas, voice concerns and feedback openly, fight for what we believe is the best solution to a problem, and work longer to deliver the best result on the timeline we set. With all that being said, we also have a very social work culture. The team often goes to concerts, hangs out after work, hosts happy hours, and goes on at least two full-team activities per month around the Bay Area. We rotate who controls the office music playlist, make community meals, and talk about our interests. In order for us to be comfortable healthily challenging each other and pushing each other to succeed, we have to have a connection. If you align with this, please apply
