Impala Software Engineer (Remote)

via Stackoverflow Jobs

Hello!


Thanks for checking out our job description for a Backend Software Engineer at Impala. We felt a little bit impersonal just diving straight in with words like “revolutionising” and “disrupting”.


As such, we apologise in advance for any clichés, tropes or sudden-insecurity-driven-panic-attacks that you might find in the description below.


All that aside though, we’re pretty proud to be listed number 2 in London’s best startups to work at in 2021.


Covid-19 has forced almost every industry in the world to adjust in 2020, and none more so than the travel industry. It is however, an exciting time to be in Travel Tech, with endless opportunities opened up for innovation and forward-thinking that will help jump start the travel industry. Here at Impala, that’s our goal! Backed by some of  Europe’s leading investors, we’re on the cusp of launching a product that will connect people and travel once again.


What is Impala?


If you’re keen to be on the frontline of creating never-before-seen travel technology and experiences, you belong at Impala.


At Impala we’re solving an exciting, complex problem that has held back the hotel industry, if not the entire travel industry, for 20 years.


Forget following emerging technology trends — we’re looking to SET them.


Impala is making the process of booking hotel rooms ridiculously easy. In short, we’re providing hotels with powerful data distribution infrastructure.


More practically, we’re making the world a better place for guests, hotels, and online travel agents of any size. Think Twilio for Travel.


We’re growing at - quite frankly - a ridiculous old clip, since closing our Series B round in early 2020.


We’re looking for self-motivated folks to expand our high-performance team. You’ll be a brilliant fit if you’re obsessed with self-development, Stripe-level quality & reliability, smashing targets, and moving at a red-hot pace (hello, start-up life!)


Where is Impala going?


We’re supported by some of the most respected investors in the business, the early-stage backers behind Deliveroo, PillPack, SecretEscapes, Zoopla, Trivago, Monzo, Travelperk, Transferwise, Airbnb, GetYourGuide, Omio, Spotify and more! 


They’re on board because of the shared opportunity we have before us - revolutionising a 1.6 trillion dollar market that’s been out-of-date for 20 years.


They also share our vision of a future in which travel is seamlessly connected and relentlessly inventive.


Anyone travelling anywhere will interact with products powered by Impala. Our technology is already installed in hundreds of hotels worldwide, on six continents and categorises more than 1 billion data points. 


Sound interesting? 


If your answer is ‘yes’ and you want to learn more, check out our Medium page and our Culture Deck.


Apply if you want to bring your innovation bent and product-obsession to help change the game in travel.
