FullStack Engineer II - RegTech

Who are we?

At Booking.com, we make it easier for everyone to experience the world. We began by taking hotel bookings online over 20 years ago and we’ve been shaping the travel industry ever since. Today, we’re building a platform that connects all parts of the trip – from accommodation to transport, tickets, tours and more. A software developer owns the execution of technical elements in the Booking.com tech stack, products and processes. They are responsible for the implementation of technical solutions based on business requirements, they can estimate the effort and impact of the items they work on, and show a high quality of craft in what they deliver. A developer understands the quality of test automation is as important as the production code and spends time refactoring both to ensure ease of change enabling a sustainable pace of development. Developers are expected to work together with colleagues in other job roles to design, prioritize and implement technical tasks. Because the required technical skills and commercial knowledge can vary from one business unit to another, a developer can focus on multiple types of work from product features to infrastructure automation, frameworks, tooling or services.
