About the role
Lead Engineer - Hybrid (2 days a week in office)
Create the future of travel with us
Whether it’s to visit the people closest to us, starting an exciting adventure, or a career-defining business trip, travel is an essential part of our lives. Yet we've all experienced the aches and pains of getting to our destination. Today, more than 4 billion airline passengers rely on technology that hasn't kept up with the expectations of the modern connected traveller.
That’s why we’ve started to rebuild the infrastructure that underpins the travel industry. We’re on a mission to unravel travel — simplifying systems and building the tools that will make the future of travel effortless. Central to this mission is ensuring seamless, secure, and reliable payment experiences, which are crucial for every transaction and a cornerstone of trust in our platform.
We were part of Y Combinator S18's cohort and we are backed by Benchmark, Blossom, Index Ventures, and Kima Ventures. A fantastic set of investors that has helped build some of the world's largest companies.
Our team in London is growing, and we’re looking for talented people to join us on our journey.
What we're looking for in you
- You are hands-on. You're comfortable jumping into the codebase, contributing directly to projects, and pairing with engineers to solve complex problems.
- You have strong technical judgment. You can arbitrate technical discussions and make tradeoffs that balance short-term impact and long-term health.
- You’ve led engineering teams. You’ve managed and grown mid-sized teams (5-10 engineers), and you know how to balance delivery with team wellbeing.
- You value leadership. You lead by example, create space for others to thrive, and measure your success through the growth and success of your team.
