Direct-to-customer platform for independent restaurants
Robin Cook builds a digital ordering and customer-engagement system designed to let restaurants bypass third-party delivery platforms and sell directly to diners. The tech stack—Python, PHP/Laravel, Vue, ClickHouse, dbt, Airflow—reflects a modern full-stack shop with analytics depth; active projects span webshop development, recommendation engines, and A/B testing infrastructure. Hiring is heavily weighted toward support and design roles (8 of 14 open positions), signaling a scaling phase focused on customer onboarding and UX refinement rather than pure engineering velocity.

Robin Cook operates a webshop and order-management platform for independent restaurants in Germany. The product handles direct customer ordering, marketing automation, and recommendation logic—allowing restaurateurs to maintain a first-party relationship with diners while reducing reliance on expensive third-party delivery commissions. The company is 11–50 employees, founded in 2018, headquartered in Bremen. Current focus areas include scaling webshop capacity, optimizing order volumes, and expanding revenue through upsell and recommendation features. Pain points are internal—staff shortage, platform dependencies, and the operational challenge of helping restaurants manage orders as volume grows.
