Qualifications

We are looking for candidates who possess: Strong expertise in Java and backend development. A willingness to learn and adapt to new technologies.

About the job

Join the Tripadvisor Group, where we connect people with unforgettable experiences and strive to be the world's most trusted source for travel and adventure. Utilizing our vast portfolio of travel brands and advanced technology, we aim to engage a global audience and facilitate meaningful connections with our partners across diverse travel categories including accommodations, restaurants, and unique experiences.

The Tripadvisor Experiences Engineering team, distributed across Europe, plays a pivotal role in managing Tripadvisor.com and our mobile applications, alongside the supporting infrastructure. We empower operators to grow their businesses while enabling third parties to leverage our comprehensive inventory. Our dedicated team provides essential tools that support our customer service representatives in delivering exceptional service to travelers and operators worldwide.

We are in search of a Senior Software Engineer to become part of our dynamic team. This position is available to candidates who can commute (generally within a 2-hour radius) to one of our office hubs in Lisbon. We appreciate flexibility in work arrangements and value the importance of in-person interactions for collaboration and connection. Expect a remote-first work model complemented by periodic office gatherings for team planning and engagement.

At Tripadvisor, our engineers thrive on tackling a diverse array of technical challenges. This backend-focused full-stack role primarily involves backend development, with opportunities to engage in frontend projects as well. While a willingness to learn is essential, expertise in frontend development is not required at the outset, as we offer on-the-job training.

Our collaborative environment is designed for productivity, where engineers work closely with product managers and designers throughout the entire software development lifecycle—from design and coding to testing and deployment. Most engineers deploy code to production every few days within our daily release cycle.

The technology stack at Tripadvisor includes Java, React, Typescript, GraphQL, Kubernetes, SQL, and NoSQL databases on AWS. While strong proficiency in Java is mandatory, familiarity with the entire stack is not a prerequisite; a passion for learning is what we value most.

Why Work with Us?

  • Competitive compensation packages, including base salary, annual bonuses, and more.
  • “Work your way” approach offering flexibility to cater to your lifestyle and needs.
