We want the world to travel the globe more off-the-beaten-path and independently, and our platform gives travelers the confidence to do just that. We are a team of seven (five full-time, two part-time) who are travel fanatics. We are disrupting the travel planning industry by getting travelers the information they need to travel independently. We have big ambitions and these are the early days. Join us in our mission to change the face of travel planning and beyond. ViaHero is looking for a Senior Full-stack Engineer to: - Architect, design, develop, test and deploy new, innovative features on our website and internal dashboard - Manage junior web developers - Maintain the codebase and continuous integration pipeline and implement best-practices for code hygiene, testing and deployment - Collaborate with the team on product management, UX design and feature prioritization. - Evaluate new features via in-person user testing, site metrics and A/B tests, and iterate quickly based on user feedback You'll have autonomy and the potential to build some more advanced tools for travelers in the near future.
