Full Stack Marketing Tech Engineer

Do you want to join us on a journey to change the trillion dollar travel industry? We are looking for the best and brightest who share our passion for data driven user experience. 

Vio.com believes travel is the one thing that opens minds to new ideas, cultures, and ways of thinking. Our mission is to get every traveler the best accommodation deal, worldwide. From adventure travel and backpacking to honeymoons and family vacations, we genuinely care so that every traveler can make the best-informed accommodation choice at the absolute best conditions for every trip.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated Marketing Tech Engineer to help build the best user experience for our brand new product.

We are working with a modern stack consisting of ES2016, React 18, Redux and Ramda. We use Babel and Webpack and our server runs on Node.js, while our APIs are built with Go and Elixir. We employ unit, snapshot, and end-to-end testing where it adds value, and use Typescript and ESLint / Prettier to keep our code base in good shape, even with multiple A/B tests running simultaneously.

We work in a flexible, results-oriented team structure, focussed on shipping value in a collaborative fashion, with hopefully just the right amount of bureaucracy.

What you will do

• Work with a marketing analyst to devise technical solutions for marketing system integrations, integrating new and adjusting existing channels and providers;
• Design, architect and engineer new marketing- and data analysis systems, work with data analysts to track and run automated marketing campaigns;
• Relentlessly improve the end-user’s experience and validate your work via A/B testing with real users;

Who you are

• You have proven experience (3+ years) working in full stack development using modern front-end and back-end toolsets and frameworks - we don’t require experience with any specific framework, but we do expect experience with a modern set up and tooling environment. Experience with a back-end technology such as Python, NodeJS or Go will help you cross bridges in achieving your goals autonomously;
• You have extensive experience with marketing- and CRM tools such as CustumerIO, AppsFlyer, Google Analytics, Facebook, Firebase, etc.;
• You are customer oriented, seeking to solve customer problems using your technical background;
• You are flexible, curious and data-guided in helping decide us what to work on;
• You’re tenacious, enjoy iterating over implementations until they solve a the customer’s problem, or we hit a point where pivoting would yield better results;

Why join us now?

• With a team of +180 FTEs, bootstrapped and profitable and growing +80% a year, we are one of Europe’s most successful startups these days, yet we are only getting started. We are one of the fastest-growing accommodation booking platforms in the world today, having grown our bookings 30x between 2017 and 2022, and catering to the needs of over 100 million unique visitors worldwide each year. We do that by harnessing the power of advanced algorithms and an innovative suite of power features and managed to overcome the corona crisis remarkably fast;
• The mobile applications (iOS and Android) we launched in 2023 are already a big success in the US, and we are aiming at 10M global app installs by the end of 2024, as we are beginning to build Vio.com as the brand for value-seeking travellers worldwide;
