Senior Software Engineer - Backend Focus (Viator)

New Yesterday

Senior Software Engineer - Backend Focus (Viator) Join to apply for the Senior Software Engineer - Backend Focus (Viator) role at Tripadvisor. We are looking for a talented engineer to join our fast‑growing Viator Experiences Engineering team, which is distributed across Europe and responsible for viator.com, the Viator mobile apps, and all supporting infrastructure. The role is open to candidates based within a commutable distance (generally within 2–3 hours) of one of our office hubs in Oxford or London. We embrace flexibility in where and how work gets done and also value meaningful in‑person moments to connect and collaborate. Expect a remote‑first working model with periodic in‑person gatherings at your closest office for team connection, planning, or other key moments. 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. This is a backend‑focused full‑stack position. You will spend most of your time on the backend, with some front‑end projects from time to time. 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. Strong Java proficiency is essential for this role and you will be required to code in Java during the interviews. Benefits
Competitive compensation packages, including base salary and annual bonus. “Work your way” with flexibility to suit your lifestyle. We take a remote‑friendly approach to collaboration, with the option to join on‑site as often as you’d like in select locations. Flexible schedule. Work‑life balance is ingrained in our culture by design. Trust and accountability make it work. Donation matching. Give back? Give more! We match qualifying charitable donations annually. Tuition assistance. Want to level up your career? We love to hear it! Receive annual support for qualified programs. Lifestyle benefit. An annual benefit to spend on yourself. Use it on travel, wellness, or whatever suits you. Travel perks. We believe that travel is employee development, so we provide discounts and more. Employee assistance program. We’re here for you with resources and programs to help you through life’s challenges. Health benefits. We offer great coverage and competitive premiums.
Our Values
We aspire to lead. Tap into your talent, ambition, and knowledge to bring us – and you – to new heights. We’re relentlessly curious. We push beyond the usual, the known, the “that’s just how it’s done.” We’re better together. We learn from, accept, respect, support, and value one another – and are creating something remarkable in the process. We serve our customers, always. We listen, question, respond, and strive for wow moments. We strive for better, not perfect. We won’t get it right the first time – or every time. We’ll provide a safe environment in which to make mistakes, iterate, improve, and grow.
Our workplace is for everyone. 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. We strive to create an accessible and inclusive experience for all candidates.
