About Hotel Trader

Hotel Trader is a VC-backed, cloud-native B2B platform transforming how hotels
connect with global demand. Founded by serial travel-tech entrepreneurs and backed
by Highgate Technology Ventures (HTV), we’re building the next generation of hotel
distribution—automated, scalable, and integrated directly with CRS/PMS systems.
Scale that speaks for itself:
• 1B+ search requests per day
• 40ms average response time
• 200M+ inbound messages daily
• Live integrations with Hilton, Highgate, Wyndham — rapidly expanding across
the US and Europe

We’re a remote-first, high-growth company with a strong engineering culture. Over
the past 18 months, we've tripled our team, achieved 100% year-over-year revenue
growth, and continue to scale rapidly—with real revenue traction and a growing
global footprint. Our focus remains on automation and low-latency infrastructure to
power real-time connectivity at scale.

hotel marketplace.
You’ll work across the stack—from building intuitive, data-driven UIs to
high-performance backend services that power our distribution engine.

Responsibilities
● Build and maintain end-to-end features spanning React.js frontends and Java
(Spring Boot) microservices and database integrations .
● Develop responsive, performant, and accessible UIs integrated with REST
and GraphQL APIs.
● Design and scale low-latency, high-throughput microservices for real-time
data workflows.
● Implement event-driven systems using Kafka or SQS for asynchronous
communication.
● Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and Architecture teams to translate
business requirements into scalable technical solutions.
● Optimize application performance via caching strategies, async processing,
and database tuning.
● Implement and maintain CI/CD pipelines, test automation, and monitoring
frameworks.
● Leverage AI-assisted tools (Claude, Cursor, etc.) to boost velocity and maintain
code quality.
● Participate in code reviews, design discussions, and architecture decisions.
● Write clean, maintainable code, follow design patterns, maintain high test
coverage, and document key technical decisions.
Requirements

● 6–10 years of full stack development experience with a proven track record in
production systems.
● Strong proficiency in React.js, JavaScript/TypeScript, Redux (or similar state
management) and modern frontend frameworks.
● Solid backend experience with Java, Spring Boot, and Hibernate.
● Database experience with MySQL, MongoDB, or ScyllaDB.
● Hands-on with microservices, AWS (ECS/Lambda), SQS, and GraphQL.
● Familiarity with event-driven architectures and caching layers (Redis) and
asynchronous processing.
● Working knowledge of observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch,
Sentry).
● Understanding of data structures, algorithms, and system design
fundamentals.
● Passion for clean code, testability, and engineering excellence.
● Strong analytical and communication skills with the ability to collaborate across
Product, Design, and QA teams.
● Comfortable in a remote-first, asynchronous, and ownership-driven culture.
Nice to Have

● Experience with React Native or mobile web frameworks.
● Exposure to Kafka, Kinesis, or other event-streaming platforms.
● Familiarity with CI/CD (GitHub Actions, Docker) and container orchestration
(ECS).
● Experience with AI-assisted development, LLMs, or LangChain pipelines.
● Domain exposure to B2B platforms, travel-tech, or high-scale marketplaces.
● Background in Test-Driven Development (TDD) or Agile methodologies.
Why Join Us?

● Work on mission-critical, high-scale systems used by global hotel brands.
● Build real-time, low-latency products impacting millions of hotel transactions
daily.
● Be part of a remote-first, AI-accelerated engineering culture that values
autonomy and quality.
● Collaborate with senior engineers and architects solving complex distributed
system challenges.
● Competitive compensation with equity participation and career growth
opportunities.
● Learn and work with cutting-edge AI tools—from code generation to
observability automation.
