Data Engineer

At Kitchen Spurs, we help restaurants grow by combining data, design, and operational intelligence. We’re hiring a Catalog Lead to take full ownership of how menus are structured, priced, and presented on delivery platforms like Swiggy and Zomato—while managing execution through POS systems or first-party menu tools.

This is a critical, cross-functional role that directly impacts discoverability, conversions, and revenue for our restaurant partners. As a team lead, you will also be responsible for mentoring, training, and overseeing a team of catalog executives, ensuring accuracy, speed, and consistency in execution at scale.

Role Overview

You will be responsible for crafting and managing the digital menu experience across platforms. While the menu is presented to customers via Swiggy and Zomato, it's often managed through external POS systems (like Petpooja or DotPe) or the platforms' own menu dashboards. This role requires strong attention to detail, platform fluency, and a deep understanding of how to drive performance through better catalog design.

Key Responsibilities

• Take full ownership of how restaurant partners' menus appear on Swiggy and Zomato
• Navigate POS systems and aggregator dashboards to implement structured, conversion-optimized menus
• Work closely with internal teams and restaurant partners to translate business goals into catalog strategy
• Benchmark competitors and guide pricing, add-on logic, modifiers, images, and naming conventions
• Document processes and develop SOPs to support execution at scale
• Train and manage a team of catalog executives to maintain quality and turnaround times
• Ensure menus are not only accurate, but also positioned to maximize AOV, frequency, and discoverability
• Use a combination of culinary knowledge and performance data to refine catalog strategies.

What We’re Looking For

• 2 to 5 years experience working with e-commerce catalogs
• Comfort with online tools (either first party or via middleware like UrbanPiper, DotPe, Petpooja)
• Strong understanding of menu performance drivers - from pricing and categorization to imagery and modifiers.
• A process-oriented mindset with the ability to define playbooks and troubleshoot at scale.
• Excellent communication and client-facing skills with a consultative approach.
• Hands-on problem solver with ownership mentality and first-principles thinking.
• Ability to collaborate across teams (e.g., Account Managers, Developers)
• Experience using ChatGPT or similar AI tools to plan smarter and execution at scale, eg, menu descriptions, cross sell suggestios (e.g., descriptions, tags), or assist with operational documentation and efficiency
