Senior Software Engineer - Ascend

About Gordian

We are a travel tech company that innovates for travelers worldwide. Our Travel Platform is a valued product among our customers like Priceline, Hopper, and Trip.com and has us well-established in the air travel industry.

Recently, we launched another product that is direct to consumers and we are hiring for this team in Bellevue, WA.

The Role

We seek an experienced backend engineer to create and collaborate, to build this new, direct-to-consumer product. We have an MVP but this role is like a founding engineer role at a startup with a strong financial posture.

Requirements

• 6+ years of backend software engineering experience
• Location: We are based in Bellevue, WA. Because this product is in such a nascent stage there is lots of collaboration that we can't see this role being remote for the time being. Expect to be in the Bellevue office at least 4 days a week.

What We Offer

• Talent: Our talent has made all the difference. We seek to attract and retain folks who are sharp, entrepreneurial, and low ego.
• Compensation: We compensate people based on the value of their impact rather than the cost of living. We have a data-driven approach to compensation and regularly hit at or about the 80% percentile for similar roles at companies in our peer group on both cash and equity.
• Build: This role would have an end-to-end remit to build a brand new travel product, with access to funds and high-caliber backend and front-end engineers.
