Skyscanner is proud to be the world’s most trusted travel app and website. Here, our mission is to lead the global transformation to modern and sustainable travel and ensure a seamless experience for all those who want to explore the planet while protecting it.

At Skyscanner, our global presence offers scale and our inclusive work environment gives everyone the chance to make a real impact. Wherever you’ll join us, you’ll work alongside people who’ll inspire you to achieve your best while tackling some of the most exciting challenges within the travel sector.

Rewarding. Energising. Open.

Java, Python, Docker and AWS – you’ll be up to speed with at least two of them, and keen to build your knowledge on them all. Our Distributed workflow includes Hadoop/Spark, SQL, Airflow and Jupyter. So, as a skilled senior software engineer, your sound tech experience of Agile/Lean methodologies will be vital for continuous improvement. You always base your decisions on solid data and metrics. But while this technical talent is essential, you’ll also need the drive to produce outstanding work. So you’ll break challenges into bite-size tasks, mentor team mates and always demand quality.

We need your expertise to help us do something great for our travellers: make booking stays and journeys more sustainable and straightforward. It involves technical challenges and the latest technology, from machine learning and cloud services to world-class APIs. 

Working in our global team, you’ll be in charge of developing a whole range of key product features. That means defining and implementing services that make up a vital sub-system in your area. As you work, you’ll collaborate with product engineers and influence their thinking. Though you’ll be accountable for your own projects and trusted to deliver, you’ll also form part of a broader team that takes collective responsibility for making success happen.

Skyscanner’s unwavering commitment to our travellers and partners remains as strong as ever. We’re confident that our travellers’ appetite to explore the world will return, and we will need your expertise to help us make travel more sustainable and straightforward, along with all the new considerations of an evolving industry. 

Already a global leader in travel, we want to elevate the way we work to a whole other level. In return, you’ll get meaningful things like medical insurance, health screenings, headspace subscriptions, a home office allowance and the option to buy more holiday. You’ll have the opportunity to work from any country for 4 weeks a year, and 30 days in our other global offices. Everything, in other words, to help you relax and give your best.

Travel means discovering new perspectives and experiencing diverse cultures. And we believe that travel is for everyone. We know that Skyscanner will be strongest when our team is both inclusive and diverse and we are committed to taking that journey together. We will recognise and challenge everyday biases, remove obstacles to inclusion and ensure that all of our people can thrive as their authentic selves
