Description For Senior Software Engineer - London

TravelPerk, a rapidly growing SaaS business travel platform valued at $2.7 billion, is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join their London team. The role offers an exciting opportunity to work on a next-generation travel management platform that serves global brands like Wise, Red Bull, and Aesop.

The position requires working in a hybrid environment (3 days in office) and focuses on developing complex travel-related web products using Python/Django and React. As a senior engineer, you'll be responsible for system architecture, third-party API integrations, and mentoring other team members. The ideal candidate should have extensive programming experience and a product engineering mindset, though specific stack expertise is less important than smart problem-solving abilities.

TravelPerk offers an attractive compensation package including equity, comprehensive health benefits, and mental health support. The company has grown to over 1,400 people across Europe and North America, and has been recognized as one of the best places to work. They maintain an IRL-first approach to work, believing in the value of in-person collaboration for improved connectivity and creativity.
