Software Engineer - GO

Mid-Level Software Engineer

At Nando’s, we’re more than flame-grilled PERi-PERi chicken – we’re a family of people who care deeply about creating experiences, supporting each other, and leaving a positive mark on the world. We believe brilliant ideas come from diverse voices, and we’re building a tech team where everyone feels they belong and can grow.

We’re looking for a Mid-Level Software Engineer to join our Accounting, Banking and Property (ABP) team. If you’re passionate about solving real-world problems, mentoring others, and working in an inclusive environment where collaboration and wellbeing are valued as highly as technical excellence – this could be the role for you.

Why Nando’s? Our Values

We live by four values that guide everything we do:

• Pride – We take pride in our roots, our purpose, and the positive impact we make.
• Passion – We bring energy and commitment to our craft and our community.
• Integrity – We do the right thing, always.
• Family – We look after each other, celebrate individuality, and grow together.

These aren’t just words – they shape how we build products, how we treat one another, and how we support work-life balance.

What You’ll Do

As part of our ABP team, you’ll help modernise how Finance and Property at Nando’s operate. We support:

• Finance – driving efficiency and modernisation across core processes.
• Property – supporting sustainability goals and efficient operations.

You’ll:

• Design, build and maintain backend and frontend services (Golang, Python, TypeScript, Next.js).
• Work with Google Cloud Platform and Terraform to deliver secure, scalable solutions.
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to a supportive, growth-focused culture.
• Collaborate with stakeholders across Finance, Property, Sustainability and beyond – the work you do will directly impact our restaurants and teams worldwide.
• Build systems that are reliable, automated, and sustainable.
• Be empowered to choose the best tool for the job – we’re proudly tech-agnostic.

Why You’ll Love It Here

• Inclusive Culture – You’ll join a supportive team where everyone’s voice matters and diverse perspectives are celebrated.
• Growth & Mentorship – We’ll invest in your development and give you space to mentor others, too.
• Flexibility – Hybrid working options and family-friendly policies to support your lifestyle.
• Real Impact – The tools you build will help thousands of people across our restaurants and support Nando’s sustainability journey.
• Belonging – At Nando’s, you’re part of a family, not just an org chart.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience with Golang and TypeScript.
• Strong engineering background, ideally with exposure to distributed systems.
• Experience in agile practices and collaborative team environments.
• Clear communication skills and a sense of ownership.
• A curiosity to learn, and a desire to help others grow.

Bonus Points

• Experience in cloud platforms (GCP preferred).
• Interest in sustainability-focused projects.
• Enthusiasm for mentoring and creating a welcoming environment for junior engineers.

Bring your whole self to Nando’s.

We know that confidence gaps and imposter syndrome can sometimes hold people back – but we encourage you to apply even if you don’t tick every box. What matters most is your willingness to learn, grow, and contribute.
