Software Engineer (Python / AI / React) | £65–85k + Equity | Remote UK/EU


I'm recruiting for a profitable AI travel startup building a platform to discover and book luxury hotels, villas, yachts and private flights, with intelligent search and personalised recommendations at its core.


You'll be joining an engineering team led by a hands-on CTO (worked for Microsoft, startups and hedge funds - build the inhouse machine learning models himself) as well as a founding engineer who built products used by millions at Spotify.


The challenge? Building the systems that power the platform as it scales.


What you'll own:

  • Python / FastAPI: Integrating multiple travel suppliers, handling real-time pricing, availability and API reliability.
  • PostgreSQL: Designing the data architecture, normalising messy supplier data and matching duplicate properties.
  • Redis / GCP: Caching, deployment, infrastructure and performance.
  • AI search: Building retrieval and recommendation features using LLMs, embeddings and structured data.
  • React / TypeScript: Contributing across the frontend when needed. It's a three-person engineering team, so everyone gets involved.


Who they're looking for:

  • A backend-leaning full-stack engineer with 4+ years' experience, ideally from a successful startup, scaleup or high-calibre technology company.
  • You'll have designed and deployed production backend systems, be confident with databases and architecture, and have enough frontend experience to build features end to end.
  • Experience with AI-powered products, consumer platforms, marketplaces or e-commerce is a big plus.


Not a pure frontend, ML or data engineering role. They want someone who can own the backend architecture, write excellent code and contribute wherever the product needs them.


Paying £65–85k + equity | Fully remote anywhere in Europe!
