HotelTonight makes it remarkably easy to book great hotels at amazing last-minute rates on your mobile device, for tonight, tomorrow and next week. Our mission is to make people feel more alive by delivering the unexpected and we're looking for a Platform Engineer to help do just that.

At HotelTonight, we believe that simplicity is one of the pillars of great user experiences. To keep things simple, our customers see a max of 15 hotels at a time. Your role will be to make sure that only the best hotels, offering great deals, are making it to the top 15.

When you join HotelTonight, you will be working on our scoring algorithm that ranks hotels based on real-time and historical data, user location and behavior, price, and many other factors. You will also experiment with different setups of the algorithm by running A/B tests to find the sweet spot between conversion and revenue because we like to make decisions based on data!

To accomplish this, you’ll have access to the best tooling and work with a best of class team.
