About Our Tech:

The On-Site tech stack primarily utilizes Python, with some services written in Go, for tooling, automation, and service code. We leverage Django as our primary web framework. For monitoring, we use New Relic and Splunk. Our robust infrastructure is built with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraspace (wrapped around Terraform). Our services run on Kubernetes, deployed via Helm. Our cloud technologies encompass various AWS services, including EKS, S3, ElastiCache, and Lambda. Data technologies include MongoDB, MySQL (RDS), Redis (ElasticCache), RabbitMQ, and Kafka. CI/CD is managed through Jenkins. The On-Site tech stack handles a significant portion of Grubhub's daily orders and is rapidly growing.
