About the role
This is a hybrid role in Toronto, Canada that requires in person attendance 2x/week.
About the company
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.
Availability Planning & Experiences Team
The Availability Planning & Experiences team builds the highly visible, mission-critical foundation where OpenTable’s thousands of global restaurant partners define their operational setup: setting shifts, defining schedules, optimizing table layouts, and creating unique dining events and Experiences.
This work is profoundly impactful. The features you build directly shape the experience of our top-tier restaurant partners, who frequently come to us with requests that influence our roadmap. You won’t just be building features; you’ll be influencing the user experience and technical foundation of a product central to both OpenTable and our partners’ success.
This role offers a unique mix of autonomy and ownership: you will have a real voice in both design and product decisions, ensuring we deliver powerful control without overwhelming complexity.
The Role:
As a Staff Frontend Engineer in Toronto, you will serve as a core technical leader and hands-on architect, responsible for tackling the most complex and ambiguous engineering challenges within the Availability Planning system. Your primary contribution will be through deep, direct technical execution, system design, and the implementation of large-scale features.
Responsibilities
Your key responsibilities will center on:
•
Hands-On System Building: You will actively write and review mission-critical code in React, Redux, TypeScript, and JavaScript. This role requires continuous deep engagement with the codebase to drive performance and maintainability.
•
Architectural Ownership: Define and implement the technical vision for the Availability Planning system. You will own system design and execution, focusing on creating intuitive and scalable UI architectures that can manage immense complexity.
•
Frontend Mastery & Quality: Design and build elegant, reusable abstractions and an integrated layer between the UI and backend. You will set a high standard for quality, driving sophisticated testing strategies using React Testing Library, Jest, and Cypress.
•
Technical Elevation: Act as a force multiplier, elevating the coding standards and practices of the entire team through meticulous code reviews and mentorship.

Requirements
You are a highly experienced engineer ready to translate strategic goals into elegant, production-ready code while leading technical strategy.
•
Extensive Expertise: 7+ years of professional software development experience in a collaborative team environment, with a significant track record in building and scaling large-scale frontend applications.
•
Code Mastery: Deep, expert-level proficiency in JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js, and React. You write code that is readable and maintainable, and you take the time to learn things you are working on that you don’t understand.
•
Strategic Architecture: Proven experience investing deeply in code architecture and driving multi-year technical roadmaps on large, established codebases. You excel at creating generic and reusable code.
•
Strategic Execution: Exceptional ability to drive large, cross-functional projects from the early planning stage all the way into production.
•
Communication and Collaboration: The ability to articulate complex technical trade-offs to product and design partners, as well as experience collaborating closely with designers (e.g., using Figma).
•
Quality Champion: A passion for rigorous quality control and pixel-perfect design implementation through the use of both automated and manual testing as well as careful code reviews.
•
Ownership Mindset: You embrace full ownership over your systems and adopt modern tools (like AI helpers) to enhance efficiency, while maintaining rigorous standards for code quality and accuracy.

The best connections happen face-to-face, whether you’re sitting down to dinner or having coffee with a coworker. That’s why OpenTable has adopted a hybrid workplace model. This role aligns with that approach, with an expectation of coming into the office two days a week—giving employees the best of both worlds: in-person collaboration and flexibility.
There are a variety of factors that go into determining a compensation range, including but not limited to external market benchmark data, geographic location, and years of experience sought/required.
We offer a competitive base salary and benefits including: health benefits; flexible spending account; retirement benefits; life insurance; paid time off (including PTO, paid sick leave, medical leave, bereavement leave, floating holidays and paid holidays); and parental leave benefits. This role is eligible to be considered for an annual bonus and equity grant.
Work Environment & Flexibility
At OpenTable, we pride ourselves on fostering a global and dynamic work environment. As a team member with us, you will benefit from a schedule tailored to accommodate a global workforce operating across multiple time zones. While the majority of your responsibilities may align with conventional business hours, there will be instances where you are expected to manage communications - via calls, Slack messages, or emails - outside of regular working hours to effectively collaborate with international colleagues, respond to restaurant partners, and/or address urgent matters. OpenTable will always abide by and consider local laws and regulations.
Inclusion
We’re committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels they belong and can thrive. We know the best ideas come when we bring different voices to the table, so we’re building a team as dynamic as the diners and restaurants we serve—and fostering a culture where everyone feels welcome to be themselves.
If you need accommodations during the application or interview process, or on the job, we’re here to support you. Please reach out to your recruiter to request any accommodations.
