Role
Who you are
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field. Exceptional candidates without formal education, but with the skills to rival even the most educated, are encouraged to apply. We value talent and passion above all!
- 6+ years of honing your skills with React and React Native. You should be comfortable creating complex web and mobile applications as if you were simply stirring a potion
- Proficiency in the ancient runes of HTML/CSS, and a good grasp on the mystical arts of layout, specificity, cross-browser compatibility, responsiveness, and accessibility
- Experience with browser APIs and a knack for turning snails into cheetahs when it comes to frontend performance
- A deep understanding of continuous refactoring for reusability and testability
- A proactive approach, a results-driven mindset, and the resilience of a dragon in a fast-paced startup environment
- The gift of gab, or just really strong communication and teamwork skills
- Ability to work in an open office environment in a hybrid structure in Palo Alto. This is not a remote-eligible role

Our take
Corporate travel is an immense market, yet most infrastructure that supports the industry still runs on decades-old technology. Current Global Distribution Systems help travel agents with the logistics of finding and booking travel and accommodation, but are difficult to use and are not optimised for the globally connected world we live in today.
Spotnana has created new travel infrastructure, and uses a cloud-based technology stack to provide a modern travel platform to corporation. The company connects all leading content providers at a global scale through technology that can be used by anyone, anywhere.
The company's funding has been deployed into additional hires, particularly on the engineering team, building out its travel operations infrastructure and continued development of its open architecture. Its level of funding could also see Spotnana make strategic acquisitions in the coming years, something that is not uncommon in the fragmented travel market. The company is also expanding development of AI plugins.
