About the role:
Hostaway is seeking a highly motivated Senior Backend Engineer to join the Core team. This team is responsible for the integrations with our key partners (Online Travel Agencies). These integrations are critical to our customers’ daily workflows, powering seamless connectivity between their properties and major booking platforms. If you’ve worked on similar tools that handle huge volumes and interact with a variety of complex APIs, you’ll be a great fit!
Collaboration with the Product Manager is essential. While the Product Manager defines the 'what', you are responsible for the 'how'—translating business requirements into effective technical solutions. By deeply understanding the problems our users face, you help shape the technical direction and ensure our backend services deliver maximum value.
You’ll be supported by an Engineering Manager, who will help coordinate the team’s day-to-day work, maintain a sustainable delivery pace, and ensure the team is set up for success. Together, you’ll break down complex projects into manageable tasks and drive continuous improvement in our engineering practices.
