We're the bridge connecting properties to the global travel ecosystem. Our team tackles complex integration challenges that directly impact revenue for thousands of hotels worldwide, from building rock-solid connections with major OTAs to ensuring every booking flows seamlessly and securely. We balance innovation with pragmatism: migrating legacy systems to modern microservices while maintaining the reliability our customers depend on. If you thrive on solving hard technical problems with real business impact and love the challenge of both building greenfield features and refactoring legacy code, you'll feel right at home here.

• Lead technical discussions on complex concepts and requirements with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, driving alignment on backend and frontend architecture decisions

• Contribute to our ongoing initiative to migrate core platform components into microservices, helping shape the long-term technical vision

• Re-architect and refactor existing legacy systems to align with modern standards and project requirements, demonstrating ownership and commitment to continuous improvement

• Proven track record of taking ownership of projects and delivering results independently
