Qualifications
Requirements:
• Have 2 to 5 years of design experience
• Thrive in a fast-paced results-driven environment with varied responsibilities and challenging assignments that would strike fear into the hearts of average designers
• Rock design tools like Figma
• Communicate ideas easily verbally and in writing with engineers and marketing
• Prefer to experiment with new designs and use data to drive decisions rather than view as an art project
• Listen to customers, partners, and teammates, and respond well to feedback
• Embrace Web Usability, User-Centered Design, & Agile methodologies
• Feel passionate that ‘success is in the details as much as in the ‘big picture’
• Love managing multiple projects simultaneously and hit deadlines, using the 80/20 rule as your mantra

In a perfect world, you would...
• Have experience in consumer marketplaces, e-commerce or other transaction-oriented consumer web apps preferred
• Know SEO and how to balance it with UX
• Have previously thrived in a true early startup experience previously (from Bootstrap to Series B)
• Understand and have helped design for online niche communities and/or gaming products

Job Description
You'll be an important part of a small team with big ambitions: delivering a delightful and engaging product that makes it possible to seamlessly find and book a traveler's perfect adventurous vacation.
The ideal candidate for this position has experience working with established, medium to large-sized codebases. You should feel comfortable building new systems, refactoring existing code, writing tests when you spot something that's lacking coverage, and implementing new features quickly.
We are still young, so there's a large opportunity here to steer the direction of the code and the product as it grows. If you think you're up for the challenge, we'd love to hear from you.
We're looking for...
An API developer who's comfortable doing a little bit of everything, from connecting to external API services to orchestrating AWS Lambda architecture and optimizing background processes. You can talk to other engineers and explain our API architecture and solve various bottlenecks.
Qualifications
Requirements:
• 2-4 years in web development
• Obsessed with clean and quality code
• Implementing API and integrating with external services
• Strong communication skills, positive attitude and empathy
• Grasp of the big picture

Job Description
You'll be an important part of a small team with big ambitions: delivering a delightful and engaging product that makes it possible to seamlessly find and book a traveler's perfect adventurous vacation.
The ideal candidate for this position has experience working with established, medium to large-sized codebases. You should feel comfortable building new systems, refactoring existing code, writing tests when you spot something that's lacking coverage, and implementing new features quickly.
We are still young, so there's a large opportunity here to steer the direction of the code and the product as it grows. If you think you're up for the challenge, we'd love to hear from you.
We're looking for...
An API developer who's comfortable doing a little bit of everything, from connecting to external API services to orchestrating AWS Lambda architecture and optimizing background processes. You can talk to other engineers and explain our API architecture and solve various bottlenecks.
Qualifications
Requirements:
• 2-4 years in web development
• Obsessed with clean and quality code
• Implementing API and integrating with external services
• Strong communication skills, positive attitude and empathy
• Grasp of the big picture
• Loves taking full responsibility and ownership over code/features/project
• Passion for excellence

• DevOps experience
