Senior Software Engineer, Backend - Lodging
Remote
Job Summary
Contribute across Search, Integrations, and Bookings backend systems by building and maintaining business logic for the Partner API integration layer.

Partner closely with the PM, frontend lodging team, and supplier integrations lead to own projects end to end, surfacing blockers and delivering results. This contractor role requires hands-on experience with AI-assisted development, cloud expertise (AWS preferred), and strong SQL fundamentals. Candidates must demonstrate a self-directed working style and comfort with ambiguity. Applications are accepted through September 30th for candidates based in Latin America.
Required Qualifications
- Hands-on experience with AI-assisted development (Claude, Cursor, or equivalent)
- Cloud experience (AWS preferred)
- Strong SQL and relational database fundamentals
- A self-directed working style — you don't need daily direction; you find the work and drive it forward

- Adaptable to shifting priorities — lodging moves fast, and plans change
Desired Qualifications
- Node.js or Kotlin experience (either is a strong plus given the stack)
