Software Engineering Team Lead at Slyce GmbH in Remote

About Slyce

At Slyce, we’re reinventing how food delivery operations work. Our globally unique SaaS platform is already trusted by some of the world’s largest restaurant brands. By combining cutting-edge technology with in-depth food industry expertise, we help restaurants expand their reach, boost revenue, and foster customer loyalty.

Our founders previously built and scaled Honest Food, the world’s largest virtual restaurant brand, which Delivery Hero successfully acquired. Backed by top-tier venture capital, we’re now in stealth mode — and building the next big thing in food-tech. If you want to make a real impact, this is your chance.
