Almost everything you see, both online and in-store has been developed in-house — from our online store and in-store mobile POS (Point of Sale) app, to our warehousing and logistics systems. Taking a tech-forward approach affords us the opportunity to drive retail innovation; offer a true omnichannel shopping experience; and craft experiences that delight — both our customers and our staff who use these tools daily. And we're constantly on the look out for new talent to join our team.
Clojure has been part of our stack for over a decade because it fosters elegant, expressive code, by combining the best of functional programming with practical tools for real-world development. Its immutability encourages safer, more predictable code, while the interactive REPL allows for rapid feedback and prototyping. At Yuppiechef, you'll have the opportunity to master Clojure with support from experienced peers. Its simplicity, interoperability with Java, and growing demand make it a skill worth learning — and a joy to work with.
And, we make use of…
At the heart of Yuppiechef, you'll find a bunch of great, diverse and interesting people. From our talented buyers, assortment planners and marketers, to our warehousing specialists, customer and sales assistants, designers and developers, it's the people at Yuppiechef who drive our business and make it the shopping experience that our customers know and love us for.
We're foodies and home lovers, aesthetes and early adopters, and we’re passionate learners more than we're experts. Our offices in Cape Town and stores country wide are filled with people who value excellence, growth, integrity and teamwork, and who like spending time with one another over coffee and lunches.
We're always looking for new people to teach us new ways of doing things and help us make big things happen. And we'd love to know if you might be one of them.
All technical roles at Yuppiechef have progression paths, from Junior, Mid, Senior, to Lead.
We value and remunerate both individual contributions and management tracks.
