Product Engineer at Zavo – London, England

About the Role

We're looking for a Product Engineer who will build and ship features across our AI-powered payments and POS platform—working on everything from our Next.js merchant dashboard to React Native terminal software to AI agents that automate restaurant operations. You'll own product features end-to-end, working directly with our founders and small, agile engineering team to serve the 400+ restaurants and retail businesses already using Zavo.

Compensation: £80,000–£120,000 base salary + equity

About Zavo

We’re a YC-backed (F25) startup based in London, building an intelligent, all-in-one platform to replace today’s fragmented restaurant tech stack.

Zavo powers card payments, POS, and AI for 400+ restaurants and retail businesses. We’re backed by leading global investors, growing revenue rapidly, and moving fast to define the next generation of restaurant technology.

What You'll Do

• Ship product features end-to-end across our modern stack (Next.js, React Native, Python/Supabase)
• Build and improve our merchant dashboard that restaurant owners use daily
• Work on React Native terminal software that runs on our payment devices
• Help build AI agents that automate restaurant operations
• Work directly with co-founders and a small technical team—your work will have immediate impact
• Talk to customers, understand their problems, and build solutions that actually work

What We're Looking For

• 3-5+ years building production web and mobile experiences that real users love
• Strong full-stack skills with a frontend/product tilt—you care about UX as much as code quality
• Experience with our stack (Next.js, React Native, Python) or similar modern technologies
• Founder mentality—you treat this like your own company and do whatever it takes
• Customer obsession—genuinely excited about building products for restaurant owners and merchants
• High agency and comfortable with ambiguity—we're a small team moving fast
• Based in London (hybrid)—we need in-person collaboration with the team
• UK work authorization—we can't sponsor visas at this stage

Why Zavo

• YC-backed with very strong revenue and momentum (400+ merchants and growing)
• Work directly with founders on high-impact problems
• Modern tech stack—Next.js, React Native, Python, Supabase, AI/ML
• Real product ownership—you'll ship features that merchants use every day
• Early-stage equity with real upside potential
• London-based team with a collaborative, all-in culture

The pay range for this role is:
80,000 - 120,000 GBP per year(Hybrid (London, England, GB))
