Description For Software Engineer (Backend)

SkyLink is revolutionizing corporate travel management through an innovative AI-powered platform that enables travelers to book and manage travel through chat or email, similar to interacting with a corporate travel agent. The platform leverages cutting-edge natural-language processing and generative language technologies to handle complex travel itineraries and changes using colloquial English.

As a Backend Software Engineer, you'll be joining a dynamic team backed by Menlo Ventures, Y Combinator, Human Capital, and Fortune 50 CEOs. The role offers an exciting opportunity to build complex systems from the ground up, working with modern technologies including Python, Django, and AWS infrastructure.

Your responsibilities will include creating unified integrations with major travel systems, implementing sophisticated algorithms for travel itineraries, and architecting an AI-driven platform using LLMs. You'll be working in a collaborative environment where you can make significant impact on global travel technology.

The ideal candidate brings 4+ years of software experience, strong architectural skills, and a passion for building scalable systems. You'll need to balance technical excellence with practical delivery, maintaining high engineering standards while working in a fast-paced startup environment.

Benefits include healthcare, 401(k), unlimited PTO, and hybrid work arrangement in New York City. This is an excellent opportunity for a talented engineer who wants to work at the intersection of AI and travel technology, with significant autonomy and ownership in their role.
