As a skilled Software Engineer 2, you’ve worked on modern front end. You’re excited by React, Javascript/Typescript, Webpack, CSS, APIs (REST, gRPC) and npm to name but a few!
But what we really need is someone who can build and expand front end codebases, so we can scale through development. This isn’t just about having great technical talents, though. We’re also looking for a sense of team spirit, dedication to customers and accountability for your own projects. You will join a brand-new squad in charge of the Skyscanner Search experience, one of the most central parts of our product. You will have the chance to create an impact, explore new markets and grow the product. We need your expertise to help us do something great for over 100 million travellers: make booking stays and journeys more sustainable and straightforward. It involves technical challenges and the newest technology – but that’s ok by you.
First and foremost, it’s about driving automation and solving technical issues. A curiosity about security, data engineering/ETL, cloud services, real time accuracy and interfacing Java APIs will definitely help. You’ll be accountable for your own work and trusted to deliver, as well as forming part of a broader team that takes collective responsibility for success!
Skyscanner is a hybrid working company and most roles can be either Full Time or Part Time. We believe when people meet regularly in person, we are better able to innovate, learn, collaborate and inspire. We ask people to be in the office on average 8 days per month. Already a global leader in travel, we want to elevate the way we work to a whole other level. In return, you’ll get meaningful things like medical insurance, headspace subscriptions, a home office allowance and the option to buy more holiday. You’ll have the opportunity to work from any country for 4 weeks a year, and 30 days in our other global offices. Everything, in other words, to help you relax and give your best.
