Job description

At cozycozy, we're building the world's best accommodation metasearch platform making travel simple, transparent, and inspiring. We already process millions of searches, and we're growing fast.

To own the frontend architecture and help us deliver new, high-impact features that make travel discovery effortless., You'll join our engineering team and own the frontend architecture to lead the evolution of our UI. Your work will define how millions of travelers experience cozycozy, from the very first search to booking the perfect stay.

In this role, you will:

  • Own the frontend architecture and keep our Angular platform stable, modular, and high-performing.

  • Lead the development of new user-facing features, some of which will be built in React (starting from greenfield projects driven by our product lab).

Requirements

Do you have experience in gRPC?, Do you have a Master's degree?, You're a builder who cares as much about how the platform experience is as much as how it's working and

functioning. You enjoy working close to product and design, and you enjoy mentoring others while staying hands-on.

You might be a great fit if you have:

  • 6+ years of frontend or full-stack experience (frontend-focused), with 2+ years leading projects or

It's a bonus if you:

  • Have worked with React and are excited to help us build new interfaces with it
  • Have experience with high-traffic, data-rich apps (search, e-commerce, marketplaces)

Benefits & conditions

We encourage initiative, creativity, and ownership. The systems you build will power millions of searches

used by real travelers.
