This will be a remote role to start, with plans to transition to hybrid in-office 2x/week located in downtown Toronto.

With millions of diners, 70,000+ restaurant partners and 25+ years of experience, OpenTable, part of Booking Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: BKNG), is an industry leader with a passion for helping restaurants thrive. Our world‑class technology empowers restaurants to focus on what matters most – their team, their guests, and their bottom line – while enabling diners to discover and book the perfect restaurant for every occasion.

Every employee at OpenTable has a tangible impact on what we do and how we do it. You’ll also be part of a global team and its portfolio of metasearch brands. Hospitality is all about taking care of others, and it defines our culture.

The OpenTable for Restaurants (OT4R) platform is the heart of OpenTable and connects restaurants to our network of over 25 million diners. The OT4R iOS app is a sophisticated software tool that enables restaurant hosts, servers, managers, and owners to plan shifts, manage tables, and grow their business.

As a part of the team, you’ll collaborate with a hardworking and diverse group of engineers, designers, and product managers who are committed to building beautiful, scalable, high‑value features. On this team, you will explore a variety of deeply complex and rewarding domain areas, offering plenty of opportunities for professional growth (plus lots of opportunities to just geek out). From inventory management and high‑performance data synchronization to crafting sophisticated yet intuitive user interfaces, OT4R has something for everyone.

Responsibilities:

- Work closely with other engineers, product managers,



and designers to rapidly iterate on product requirements and UX/UI designs, evaluate scope, understand and clearly communicate trade‑offs, and build consensus on technical direction.
- Turn open‑ended problem statements into shipped products by asking the questions that sharpen the problem, proposing a direction, and validating assumptions with product and design rather than waiting for a fully specified requirement.
- Structure multi‑month initiatives into milestones where each increment delivers real value and reduces risk for the next, and own delivery end to end through launch and beyond.
- Promote quality as a first principle by helping us evolve testing practices, facilitate architecture and code reviews, and improve our CI/CD capability.
- Assess user impact and provide timely responses to support escalations and incidents.
- Provide mentorship and guidance to team members.

Minimum Qualifications:

- Experience shipping production‑quality native iOS applications and features, with proficiency in Swift.
- Comfortable using (and have deep experience in two or more of): SwiftUI, Async/Await, Combine, CoreData, Networking, Instruments, SOLID, MVVM, FRP.
- Strong debugging skills with the standard iOS toolchain, including Instruments, breakpoints, and the LLDB console. You test your work carefully for bugs and for consistency with requirements and designs.



You also build automated tests and know how to use them properly.
- You write code that is readable and maintainable. You create abstractions and find opportunities for code reuse. You embrace AI‑native development, and you own the results it produces, checking them for accuracy and holding them to a high quality bar.
- Strong communication skills, especially the ability to represent technical trade‑offs between potential solutions. You give feedback through code review, and receive it the same way.

Preferred Qualifications:

- Experience building and maintaining a B2B application: software people depend on to run their day, with dense business logic, high information density, and demanding state management.
- A track record with release management, including branching strategy and release trains, feature flags, phased rollouts, App Store submission, and crash and regression triage.
- Experience strengthening the foundational layers of an app (networking, persistence and data synchronization, design systems, module boundaries, build and test tooling) alongside product feature work, with a transparent sense of how platform investment compounds into product velocity.
