About the role:

Hostaway is seeking a highly motivated Staff 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! Staff Engineers are expected to govern the technical maturity for their respective domain, having a clear view of the architectural challenges and how to remediate them over time.

Having a close relationship with the domain’s Product Manager is key. While the PM brings the what, you are their peer responsible for bringing the how. Digging deep into the business problem the PM is trying to solve is key to be able to make the right decisions on how to shape the technical solution for the team to work on.

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.
