AI overview

Design and build composable ERP modules for diverse industries, ensuring adaptability while collaborating with cross-functional teams to enhance customer solutions.

About Tailor

Tailor is pioneering Headless ERP technology - a new way for growing companies to design internal workflows that fit their business, not the other way around. Our platform combines the flexibility of modern developer tools with the power of enterprise-grade operations.

We're helping multi-channel retailers, manufacturers, and B2B businesses replace rigid systems with adaptive, composable infrastructure. If you care about solving complex real-world problems and building products that scale from first principles, you'll fit right in.

Lastly, we're a Y-Combinator backed startup and have recently closed our $37M USD Series A to accelerate the future of composable ERP.

The Role

We're looking for a Full-Stack Engineer to join Tailor's Omakase team full time.

Omakase is Tailor's take on ERP - a library of composable, pre-built modules (Sales Orders, Purchasing, Inventory, Accounting, etc.) that customers can adopt and customize for their business. Think of it as the "batteries included" layer on top of Tailor's platform.

You'll be building these modules from first principles, creating reference implementations that serve as both working products and blueprints for customer deployments. Occasionally, you'll embed with forward deployed teams to support customer go-lives and bring learnings back into the module library.

What you'll do

  • Design and build composable ERP modules that solve real operational problems for retailers, manufacturers, and B2B businesses

  • Work across the stack - from GraphQL APIs and business logic to React frontends built on our AppShell framework

  • Create abstractions that balance flexibility with opinionated defaults, making modules easy to adopt and customize

  • Collaborate with forward deployed teams to understand customer needs and incorporate learnings into the module library

  • Occasionally embed with forward deployed teams to deliver for end-customers and validate module designs

  • Coach and review designs and code from technical partners and forward deployed teams, maintaining quality standards across the Omakase ecosystem

  • Document module patterns and contribute to our deployment playbook

Who you are

  • 8+ years of professional software development experience, with meaningful full-stack exposure

  • Strong TypeScript skills across the full stack - backend APIs, business logic, and React frontends

  • Experience in ecommerce, operations, or enterprise software domains (ERP, inventory, order management, etc.)

  • Familiarity with existing ERP platforms (SAP, NetSuite, ERPNext, Odoo, etc.) is a strong plus

  • You've built software that runs real business processes, not just user-facing features

  • Pragmatic about architecture - you know when to abstract and when to keep it simple

  • Comfortable working asynchronously across timezones (AU/JP/US)
