Senior Front End Software Engineer - Booking Engine

As a Senior Front-end Engineer you will develop new architectures features and best practices as well as aid the application's front-end transformation to react. You will contribute to and support our vision of a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) by engineering frontend components and services. As a Senior Front-end Engineer your goal is to deliver an exceptional experience to our customers all around the world.

This role will be a member of the Booking Engine squad. Driving direct bookings has always been important for our customers as direct bookings have a lower customer acquisition cost than third-party bookings they put the property in control and provide the property more ability to interact with their guests (ie sending pre-arrival forms and upsells).

Across the entire hotel industry direct bookings account for roughly 30% of the booking volume. The same is true for Cloudbeds properties. And while some properties drive a very low volume of direct bookings others invest heavily into marketing campaigns and guest loyalty and drive upwards of 90% of the entire booking volume as direct bookings. In general there has been a recent trend where properties particularly major brands focus increasingly on driving direct bookings.
