Full-Stack Software Engineer (New grad)

This is a remote position. Warning : if you're outside of the Americas timezone, unfortunately, we're only hiring for engineers with at least some timezone overlap. Wanderlog helps make leisure travel easier. We believe that travel makes the world better, and are building tools that lower the bar to it. Our core product, built starting 2019, is a travel planning app (we're the top-ranked trip planner on iOS and Android), but we're also helping travelers book hotels (without hidden fees), providing them with information (through various pages on e.g., best attractions, restaurants, etc.), and more. Our founders are twin brothers. Peter worked as an engineer at Stripe and a consultant at McKinsey, and Harry as a product manager at Google. We're an engineering and product-driven team: the founders studied computer science at Yale, and have built successful, bootstrapped travel companies (BookWithMatrix and All the Flight Deals) with products people love before starting Wanderlog. We now serve millions of travelers a month, and are a team of 8, including 7 engineers hailing from MIT, the University of Toronto, UC Berkeley, and more; and 1 designer. We're a self-sustaining, default-alive startup. We also love traveling. Whether it's a short hop to Austin, Seattle, or New Orleans; or a longer jaunt to Australia, Hawaii, or Banff National Park (all places the team's traveled to in the past year!), travel broadens our horizons, builds empathy, and challenges us to grow. We're working to bring these experiences to more of the world. What you'll do: As an engineer, you'll be responsible for owning portions of the product. You'll be expected to: Build new features on our website and mobile app. (Our stack is Javascript (Typescript): modern React on the web, React Native on mobile, and Node.js/Express on the server.) Design and decide what to build based on what would help travelers and drive growth. You won't be handed a spec; you'll be coming up with it Build data pipelines to crawl, process, and synthesize data from various sources around the web. Write tests and and build out engineering infrastructure. Our code is fully typed (Typescript) and tested. Debug and fix bugs and scale the infrastructure as it grows. Review code written by other engineers. Be fast and nimble: figure out the best way to build new features at the lowest cost in time and future technical debt.
