Description

•We build software for Airbnbs to rent themselves, with a state-of-the-art product and user experience. •We believe that everyone, no matter their background in work, life, culture or experiences has the ability to be exceptional. •We are bold, like risks, and take on big challenges together. •Together with our team of four software engineers and five Direct support specialists, you will be evolving the Direct product and establishing Direct as a market-leading offering for short-term rental direct bookings. •You will be an important part of our product and engineering team, focusing on shipping glorious experiences to our hosts. •You will have a high degree of ownership and accountability over the product shaping process. •After a few weeks onboarding, you'll dive right into feature development; building, improving and owning the experience that we deliver to hosts and their guests. •You will partner with product, sales, customer success, and other engineers to develop and ship features that solve the right problems. •Actively seek out opportunities to innovate. •Integrate multiple third-party services, often in an asynchronous logic flow. •Work within our “majestic” monolithic codebase and few micro-services, all sitting on a Kubernetes-powered infrastructure-as-code stack.

Requirements

•Hospitable.com is a remote-only and distributed company. For this position, your location is not a requirement. The ideal fit would work under European timezones. •Don’t tick all the boxes? Talk to us about why you’re still an amazing fit. •3+ years software engineering experience, with a focus on backend. •Significant experience with Laravel, PHP 8.1+, MySQL, and testing pipelines in a deployed web application used by paying customers. •A 'shipping' mentality - you get kicks from seeing real customers using your features, receiving feedback from them and iterating/improving on it. •Exceptional communication skills - especially written. We are a remote-first, fully distributed company. Most communication happens on Slack and Notion. •Knowing that Aron's favorite fruit is mango. •An eye for testable, maintainable, and intuitive code, but also... •Your compass points towards customer and business value, over perfect code (if such a thing exists). •The ability to think through non-obvious usage scenarios and explore ripple effects within complex systems. •High degree of empathy both toward customers and teammates. •Self-motivated and able to make decisions when surrounded by uncertainty. •Experience with query optimisation and queue/job-centric backends is a plus. •Experience with support engineering and communicating with stakeholders who are impacted by your work

Benefits

•The company itself is also a product, one that we iterate on. •A supportive and caring team environment, where you are trusted, not managed. •The total budget for this role is within $106,448.40 - $134,450.00 depending on the cost of living in your location. •We can hire talent internationally as contractors—or employees if you are based in the United States, the European Union, or Australia, taking into account payroll taxes to determine your gross compensation. •We also offer an extra incentive into our equity with RSUs (through our $HOST token). •35 days off per year, encouraged (including self-serve public holidays) and parental leave. •Mental-health and emotional support with therapists on call through Slack. •Recognized on Inc.’s list of Best Workplaces for 2023
