Description For Senior Software Engineer (Backend)

SkyLink is revolutionizing corporate travel management with an AI-powered chatbot that integrates seamlessly with enterprise chat channels like Slack & Teams. Our platform enables travelers and arrangers to book and manage travel using natural language, just as if they're speaking to a corporate travel agent. By leveraging cutting-edge LLMs and generative AI, we handle both simple and complex travel itineraries and changes effortlessly.

We're seeking a senior software engineer to join our mission of building the best-in-class AI travel management platform. The ideal candidate brings 5+ years of experience building complex technical systems and thrives in collaborative environments. You'll be working on creating unified integrations with major travel systems, designing scalable database models, implementing smart travel itinerary algorithms, and managing AWS infrastructure.

As a senior engineer, you'll need to be scrappy yet systematic, balancing quick shipping with maintaining high engineering standards. Your role involves architecting solutions, writing clean code, and ensuring robust testing and documentation. Experience with AI/LLMs is valuable, as you'll be working with cutting-edge technology to solve real-world travel challenges.

Backed by Y Combinator, Menlo Ventures, Human Capital, and Fortune 50 CEOs, we're well-positioned to transform the corporate travel industry.
