ezCater is the world’s largest online marketplace for catering – a $60+ billion market just in the U.S. Businesspeople use us to find and order great food for meetings and events; restaurants and caterers use us to grow their catering business. We’re backed by Insight Partners, Iconiq Capital, Wellington, Lightspeed, and GIC, and in early 2019 were valued at $1.25 billion. COVID slammed us, but we responded by finding new customer segments and seizing the rare opportunity COVID offered: when in life does a very successful operation get a do-over? Come help us power Food For Work even better than we did it the first time.
At ezCater, we pride ourselves on being insanely helpful, especially when it comes to great UX and great service. As a Senior Product Designer on the Fulfillment domain, you’ll be solving for the users that ensure our orders are successful: our catering partners, customer service representatives, and delivery drivers.
You’ll be a leader on the team tasked with finding and delivering innovative solutions to some of the most complex design challenges in our space. You’ll have the opportunity to work with a group of talented product designers and design researchers, while spending your days on projects that solve for valuable user and business problems.
We’re proud of how many times the adjective ‘easy’ appears in our TrustPilot reviews and we think that it’s both UX and UI that helps get us that reputation – come join our team and help us keep those great reviews coming!
