Senior Front-End Engineer

At Vio.com we believe booking accommodation should feel smart, fair, and effortless — never overwhelming or unclear.

As one of the world’s fastest-growing travel tech platforms, we help millions of users make smarter travel decisions by comparing stays across 100+ booking sites — so they can find the perfect place, at the best price, anywhere in the world. We cut through the noise and complexity of hotel and vacation rental booking, surfacing real value with clarity, transparency, and full support. No tricks. No confusion. Just great stays — booked with confidence. With operations in 100+ markets and growing fast, our mission is to reshape how people discover and book accommodation through technology travelers can trust.

We are looking for enthusiastic, motivated Senior Front-End Engineers to help build the best user experience for our brand new product.

We are working with a modern NextJS stack with TypeScript, React, Redux, and Emotion. Our servers run on Node.js, while our APIs are built with Go and Elixir. We have a comprehensive in-house design system, and employ linting, unit, visual snapshot, and end-to-end testing where it adds value. We rely heavily on experimentation and, at any time, have multiple A/B tests running simultaneously. We work in a flexible, results-oriented team structure, focused on shipping value in a collaborative fashion, with hopefully just the right amount of bureaucracy.

What you will do

• Work with your team to build innovative multi-device hotel marketplace products. Besides your own specialisation, you will be involved in shaping all key aspects of our customer-facing products.
• Work closely with the team Product manager and Engineering manager to define and lead product feature projects.
• Relentlessly improve the end-user’s experience and validate your work via A/B testing with real users.
• Optimise device-specific web experiences, including mobile phones, tablets and desktop devices.
• Work on new initiatives to help our users find, book and manage their bookings directly from Vio.com.
• Identify opportunities for improvements in terms of code quality, automation tests, feature and overall product quality.

Who You Are

• You have proven experience in front-end development (Modern ECMAScript, HTML5 and CSS3) - we don’t require experience with any specific framework, but we do expect experience with a modern set-up and tooling environment.
• You have a strong passion for the end user experience, from pixels to performance.
• You can identify the right balance between technical excellence and good-enough to ship - and know when good-enough won’t scale any further and will push for a longer-term solution.
• You have extensive hands-on experience with unit, integration, end-to-end, snapshot, performance and load testing.
• You are flexible, curious and data-guided in helping us decide what to work on.
• You have a keen eye for details, working closely with our designers to bring a smooth product to the end users.
• Experience with any of AWS, GitHub Actions, Terraform, and any other CI/CD tools is a plus.
• Experience with mobile web development is a plus.
