We're hiring a full-stack engineer to focus on booking and integration capabilities AIVIA — our AI travel advisor operating system. Advisors use this platform to research, quote, close, and close trips. You'll own the layer that turns advisor intent (and increasingly, AI-generated itineraries) into real, ticketed bookings through the GDS and travel supplier APIs.
This is a small-team, high-leverage role. You'll report directly to the CEO, work alongside a focused product and engineering group, and ship something the business actively depends on. Decisions get made in days, not quarters. Whatever you design, you ship.
What you'll build
- The integration layer between AIVIA and the GDS & travel APIs — fares, availability, PNRs, queues, ticketing, and the messy edges between them.
- The data model for itineraries, segments, and pricing that the rest of the platform (and our AI tools) build on top of.
- The booking flows that AIVIA's AI agents call into when they construct trips for advisors. You won't be training models — you'll be the engineer who makes AI-generated bookings actually work in production.
- The instrumentation, retries, and failure handling that keep the engine trustworthy at scale.
What success looks like
- 90 days: initial supplier api integration points embedded into CRM and trip planning products.
- 6 months: Initial GDS and booking api coverage for our priority products and suppliers, AIVIA agents converting proposals to booked components with minimal human involvement.
What we need
- Direct GDS API experience — Sabre, Travelport+/Galileo, or Amadeus. This is non-negotiable. The GDS is the part of the job we can't teach you quickly, so you need to bring real production experience with at least one of them.
- 3+ years building production web applications.
- React or Next.js and modern component patterns on the front end.
- Postgres (or equivalent) and strong data modeling instincts — booking data is unforgiving.
- Solid grounding in auth, security, and PII handling.
- Practical testing and CI/CD discipline.
- Fluency with AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Copilot) and a real opinion about when to use them, when not to, and how to keep them honest. We are an AI-augmented engineering org and we want people who already work this way.
How we work
- Lean, outcome-driven, short cycles.
- Heavy instrumentation and frequent feedback from real travel advisors.
- You report directly to the CEO. Small team, real ownership, no layers.
