Senior Software Engineer - Front of House (Events)

First things first: you want to know what you're actually applying for. It's impossible to capture every nuance of a role - especially at a rapidly growing company like Mews - but if we had to distill it down to a job description (which we do because this is a job description), it would be this:

Join our Events team as a Senior Software Engineer and help build the future of event and group management in hospitality.

You'll work on a product area that helps hotels manage groups, corporate events, and complex bookings more effectively. This is an opportunity to shape a growing domain with meaningful customer impact, building solutions used by Mews properties and helping define how Events evolves within the Mews ecosystem.

While you'll contribute across the stack, this role has a stronger focus on backend systems, integrations, and sound technical decision-making in a long-lived product area.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it:

• Design and build reliable, scalable software solutions for event and group management, with strong attention to maintainability, operability, and long-term product quality.
• Develop backend services using .NET Core and work with Azure services such as App Service, Azure SQL, Cosmos DB, and Redis.
• Contribute to frontend applications using React, JavaScript, and TypeScript where it adds value.
• Use AI tools regularly and thoughtfully throughout the development lifecycle to support exploration, implementation, testing, debugging, and documentation, while applying strong engineering judgment.
• Take end-to-end ownership of meaningful projects, from problem understanding and solution design to rollout and production support.
• Work closely with product managers, designers, QA, and other engineers to turn requirements into pragmatic technical solutions.
• Help evolve a long-lived product area by making sound trade-offs, improving technical health, and integrating effectively with the wider Mews ecosystem.
• Contribute to CI/CD and engineering practices that support safe, frequent, high-quality delivery.

• Strong experience building production systems with .NET and C#.
• Good understanding of distributed systems, APIs, data modeling, and cloud-based architectures.
• Practical experience across several of these areas: React, TypeScript, SQL, CI/CD, observability, DevOps, or SRE.
• Demonstrated experience owning complex projects end-to-end and working effectively in ambiguous environments.
• The ability to make pragmatic technical trade-offs, especially in long-lived or legacy codebases.
• Strong communication skills in English and a collaborative mindset when working across functions.
• Nice to have: experience mentoring other engineers and helping raise technical standards within a team.
• Nice to have: experience with SaaS platforms, integrations, or hospitality-related domains.
