Costa Coffee Tech Stack
Global coffee retailer scaling stores, machines, and ready-to-drink products across 50+ countries
Costa Coffee operates a multi-channel retail business spanning physical stores, self-serve machines, ready-to-drink beverages, and at-home products across over 50 countries. The tech stack reveals a serverless-first AWS architecture (Lambda, SNS, SQS, DynamoDB, RDS) paired with modern frontend tooling (React, Angular, TypeScript) and enterprise systems (Dynamics 365, Databricks for analytics), suggesting infrastructure built for high transaction volume and rapid scaling. Active hiring is heavily weighted toward operations (35 roles) over engineering (9), reflecting a retail business in expansion mode — new store openings, IoT machine rollouts, and acquisition integration dominate the project list.
