Our client is looking for a Backend Engineer building a first-of-its-kind platform empowering travel lovers & creators to become travel entrepreneurs, connecting their advice and guidance in the travel community with those setting out on their journey to discover the world. The founders of the business have been responsible for multiple successful start-ups including a Series D funded home rental provider.
Since its inception, they have experienced exponential growth moving through Seed & Series A funding ($18.5M) in less than 10 months and are now up to 110 heads in the business, so are well into the “scaleup” phase VS just a startup. Now boasting an incredible group of investors, they have also accrued nearly 500 advisors around the world (with over 30,000 people on the waitlist). To match their growth, they are now looking to acquire talented engineers to join their engineering squad and influence the next generation of their software.
The platform you will be building is looking to revolutionize travel by enabling anyone to become a travel advisor through an innovative client and booking management system. The platform allows individuals to leverage their travel knowledge into an accessible portfolio; offering a tailored experience of hidden gems and unique excursions.
Their platform is built with Python in the backend and React in the front end (they also deploy to AWS and containers are built in Kubernetes). This is a backend focused role with potential to work across the stack if you'd like.
They are paying up to $150k, in addition to an excellent equity & benefits package.
HQ is based in New York and they operate on a flexible hybrid work pattern (a couple of days in the office)
