About Viator

We’re looking for a Software Engineer II to join our fast-growing team. This hybrid role is based in either our Oxford or London office. Within Viator we have a fun and friendly environment where the key objective is getting things done. Working closely alongside product managers and designers, our engineers are part of the full process from software design, to code, to test, to deployment and back again. Most of our engineers release code to production every few days and we have a daily release cycle.
At Viator our Engineers are versatile and enjoy working on a variety of technical challenges. This is a backend focused full-stack position in which you will be working mostly on the backend with some front end projects from time to time. While you need to be hungry to learn, you don't need to be an expert at front end development right away - we can teach that part on the job and you won't be tested on it in interviews. Viator’s web stack includes Java, GraphQL, Kubernetes, SQL and NoSQL databases, and runs on AWS. You don’t need experience with everything listed, but strong Java proficiency is essential for this role.
Perks of Working at Viator:
- Competitive compensation packages, including base salary and annual bonuses.
- “Work your way” with flexibility to suit your lifestyle.
- Flexible schedule. Work-life balance is ingrained in our culture by design.
- Donation matching. We match qualifying charitable donations annually.
- Tuition assistance. Receive annual support for qualified programs.
- Lifestyle benefit. An annual benefit to spend on yourself.
- Travel perks. We provide discounts and more.
- Employee assistance program. Resources and programs to help you through life’s challenges.
- Health benefits. Great coverage and competitive premiums.
Our Values:
- We aspire to lead.
- We’re relentlessly curious.
- We’re better together.
- We serve our customers, always.
- We strive for better, not perfect.
Our workplace is for everyone, as is our people powered platform. At Tripadvisor, we want you to bring your unique identities, abilities, and experiences, so we can collectively revolutionize travel and together find the good out there.
