We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer - Frontend Focus to join our fast-growing team. This 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. You can expect a remote-first working model with periodic in-person gatherings at your closest office for team connection, planning, or other key moments.

At Viator our Engineers are versatile and enjoy working on a variety of technical challenges. This is a frontend focused full-stack position in which you will be working mostly on the frontend with some backend projects from time to time. While you need to be hungry to learn, you don't need to be an expert at backend development right away - we can teach that part on the job and you won't be tested on it in interviews.

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.

Viator’s web stack includes Java, React, TypeScript, GraphQL, Kubernetes, SQL and NoSQL databases, and runs on AWS. You don’t need to have experience with everything listed but you do need to be hungry to learn.

Responsibilities

• Work primarily on the frontend with some backend projects as needed, collaborating with product managers and designers.
• Contribute to the full software lifecycle: design, code, test, deploy, and monitor in a daily production release cadence.
• Engage in frontend development using the Viator web stack (Java, React, TypeScript, GraphQL, Kubernetes, AWS) and learn on the job where needed.

Qualifications

• Senior Software Engineer with frontend focus; comfortable with a full-stack context but primarily frontend work.
• Hungry to learn; not required to be an expert in backend development at the start.
• Ability to work in a remote-first environment with periodic in-person office gatherings.

Perks and Benefits

• Competitive compensation packages, including base salary and annual bonus.
• Remtote-friendly with flexibility to join on-site in select locations.
• Flexible schedule and work-life balance.
• Donation matching and tuition assistance for career growth.
• Lifestyle benefit to spend on travel, wellness, or personal needs.
• Travel perks and employee assistance program.
• Health benefits with 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 and the known.
• We’re better together. We learn from, accept, respect, support, and value one another.
• We serve our customers, always. We listen, question, respond, and strive for wow moments.
• We strive for better, not perfect. We provide a safe environment to make mistakes, iterate, and grow.
• Our workplace is for everyone. Bring your unique identities, abilities, and experiences to revolutionize travel.
