About Mashgin
Mashgin powers the world's best checkout experience for over 40 million users. Customers just place their items on our kiosks and our AI rings up their entire order in less than a second. With Mashgin, lines are now optional.
Mashgin's technology powers over 1 billion transactions at your favorite locations, including over half of all US professional sports teams, 4,000 convenience stores, major airports, universities, and more.
We’re not just building cutting-edge AI—we’re creating real-world impact and unforgettable experiences. Backed by a well-funded Series B, we’re also one of the rare AI startups that’s already profitable.
Our secret? A culture of extreme ownership, autonomy, and customer obsession. At Mashgin, we are building something extraordinary by challenging conventional wisdom. We’ve thrown out the old rules to focus on what truly matters: creating a kickass product that makes people say, 'Wow'. We don’t care about short-term wins; we build systems that stand the test of time. If you thrive in a culture of excellence without compromise and want to see your work have an immediate, remarkable impact, you’re in the right place.
Position Summary
This is not a specialized position. We're hiring Builders — people who can wear every hat and ship products that blow people's minds.
Most companies split this across five roles: a PM to decide what to build, a designer to figure out how it looks, a frontend engineer, a backend engineer, and someone to handle support when it breaks. We don't do that. At Mashgin, one person owns the whole thing — from talking to a stadium operations manager about their pain points, to sketching a solution, to writing the code that runs on thousands of kiosks, to watching real users interact with it and iterating until it's right.
You'll work across our entire stack: the computer vision models running on-device, the kiosk UI that a customer touches, the cloud infrastructure processing a million transactions a day, the dashboards operators use to manage their locations. You'll use AI tools to move at 10x speed, but you'll understand what's happening under the hood.
If you could credibly start a company tomorrow and do every job yourself — engineering, design, product, support — you're the kind of person we're looking for.
We maintain a flat, high-impact engineering culture where every engineer who joins our team carries the title of Member of Technical Staff.
Where We Need Builders Today
Reporting & Management Application. Own the application our customers use to understand their business — reporting dashboards, transaction analytics, location management, and operational tools. This requires a deep understanding of data, visualization, and customer processes. You'll need to get inside the heads of stadium operators, c-store managers, and university dining directors to understand what numbers matter to them and how to surface insights that drive real decisions. Not just charts — the whole product experience around the data.
Creator (Menu Management UI). Own Creator, our menu management platform — the tool operators use to configure what their kiosks recognize, how items are priced, and how menus are organized. This is an incredibly complex workflow (think: thousands of SKUs, regional variations, seasonal rotations, tax rules, modifier chains) that needs to feel simple to a normal human end user. If you love the challenge of taking gnarly domain complexity and making it disappear behind an interface that a non-technical operator can use without training, this is your role.
