Hungrrr (https://www.hungrrr.co.uk/) is a white-labelled ordering app that holds around 500 restaurants. It’s similar to Hungry House and allows users to search for the nearest takeaway/store and create an order for collection/delivery. It’s a large application that’s been in development for around 10 years – I held the position of API Engineer/Web developer (senior).
I contributed many functions to the system, such as external hardware integrations, payment integrations and order-product management.
I lead the development of all new web features during my tenure and worked closely with mobile development teams and other departments to enhance the product and deliver a suitable solution to feature requests.
