Senior Fullstack Engineer [Remote

Did you know that some cat food contains as little as 4% meat? Cats are carnivores – they need meat to thrive – but cat food companies use powdered animal derivatives because it’s cheaper and easier, and they top it up with grains and fillers that cats find hard to digest. We’re changing the cat food industry, with our 100% Fresh-cooked premium meat recipes, delivered to doorsteps everywhere. Each recipe is designed by our in-house vets and nutritionists, to be the very best (and tastiest) nutrition for cats. KatKin is building a global challenger brand in cat health and wellbeing, going after a $50B global market. Beyond the core product of Fresh food for cats, KatKin’s vision is to build a set of products and services for Cat Parents to manage their cat’s health. Everything from litter and treats, to digital health management for your cat. Today, KatKin is a UK D2C business that recently expanded into Retail and is planning to launch international markets, likely the US, from 2025 onwards.  Millions of cat parents engage with KatKin every month, and as a Full-Stack Engineer at KatKin, you’ll work alongside our Engineering team in bringing our hardcore cat parent’s digital journey to life. You will work closely with our Director of Engineering, Product, Design, Data, and the rest of the Engineering team to help meet the day-to-day and long-term ambitions of KatKin and its customers.
