Our client is transforming the travel industry with cutting-edge technology that redefines how people plan and book their trips. By combining flights from airlines that don’t traditionally collaborate, they create unique travel options that often include ground transportation, offering customers more affordable and flexible ways to reach their destinations while maximizing value for their partners—some of the world’s leading online travel agencies.
The organization prides itself on fostering a results-oriented environment where individuals can thrive, innovate, and make a tangible impact. Despite their scale, they maintain a startup-like agility, empowering each team member to contribute meaningfully. With significant challenges still ahead, they offer an opportunity for talented individuals to drive innovation and growth.
Software Architect involves designing large-scale distributed systems and APIs to deliver unique travel content (flights and more) to customers. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in system architecture, a sharp attention to detail, and the ability to work in a fast-paced environment both independently and collaboratively. If you enjoy solving complex challenges, collaborating across teams, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in travel tech, this position might be for you.
