Software Engineer – Go & Javascript
Our Ambition
We’re on a mission to solve some of today’s most complex hospitality challenges by building thoughtful, scalable solutions using an open and modern technology stack. Our goal is to create systems that make a real difference for our customers, our restaurant teams, and the communities we serve.
Our Values
At Nando’s, our values guide how we work, collaborate, and grow:
- Pride – We care about doing great work and delivering quality outcomes
- Passion – We bring energy and enthusiasm to what we do
- Integrity – We act with honesty, fairness, and accountability
- Courage – We’re not afraid to try new things, challenge ideas, and learn
- Family – We support each other, celebrate together, and create a sense of belonging
We look for people who connect with these values and bring them to life in their own way.
The Retention and Loyalty Team
The Retention & Loyalty team sits at the heart of Nando’s UK & Ireland digital ecosystem. Our responsibility is to provide security over the customer data through our ID services, to allow marketing communications and to manage and expand our rewards programme.
Our team is responsible for:
- Event-driven systems to process customer actions over the loyalty environment
- Third-party integrations with services to facilitate our reward programme and the security of the customer personal data
- Data protection of our customers
As a mid-level engineer in this team, you’ll contribute to systems that are critical to business performance while working in a supportive, collaborative environment. You’ll have the opportunity to take ownership of meaningful pieces of work, partner with experienced engineers, and grow your technical and product understanding.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
