What they look for

Every Posting says that AI is part of the daily work. Engineering Postings tell candidates to use AI tools in the coding interview, and ask that they understand and own the code they produce. Product and design Postings ask for fluency with prototyping tools such as Claude and Cursor.

Engineering roles ask for ownership from the customer problem to deployment and to the measure of impact. Engineers run the services that they build. The Flights team says that its stack is about 80% backend and 20% frontend, on Python and AWS, and that it accepts people who used other tools. Senior and staff engineers mentor others and lead work across teams. The DevOps role asks for AWS, infrastructure as code, and CI/CD experience.

Data roles ask for SQL and Looker. The analytics engineer roles also ask for dbt and a cloud data warehouse such as Snowflake.

Sales and customer care roles are tied to one market and ask for its language, such as German, French, Dutch, or Danish, with fluent English. English is the official language at the office. Sales roles ask for B2B software sales experience and Salesforce. Travel consultant roles ask for premium customer service experience and for a GDS (global distribution system, the booking system that travel agents use), such as Amadeus or Sabre. Three of these Postings are written in German.
