We welcome people at the top of their game who work collaboratively, prioritize learning, and take their work seriously, but not themselves. Priceline Partner Solutions is a grown-up start-up, combining cutting-edge technology with real purpose. For us, every trip is a big deal.

Great products require great supporting tools and technologies. In this role you’ll have the opportunity to build and envision new ways to create efficiencies across the organization for our partners externally as well as our various teams internally. These tools provide the information our partners need to fuel growth and expand their businesses, accelerate onboarding and delivery, and open the door for the emergence of fresh ideas.

Responsibilities

  • Assist in the development of tools supporting our external partnerships to grow their businesses

    • These tools will include reporting options for internal and external customers, integration services for our products, and automation of data connectivity

• Develop processes to improve data procurement and consistency in our data lake

• Support & provide ongoing analysis of said systems and technology for future improvements

• Lead, mentor, and guide less experienced developers in best practices

• Influencer and communicator on team development efforts. Influence what the best solutions are and communicate your findings to key business stakeholders

Qualifications

• 6+ years of development or equivalent consultant experience

• An academic background in Computer Science or related discipline

• An ability to implement solutions by programming all necessary components of an application

• Analytical mindset with a passion for creative pattern analysis

• Technical knowledge in but not necessarily exclusive too (Ruby on Rails, Go, MongoDB, MySql)

• Experience with developing on Cloud, especially GCP and AWS.

• Proven ability in Design and Architecture of complex, highly scalable and performance driven applications

• Demonstrated ability to learn and master new subject areas quickly, strong written and verbal communication skills

• Ability to collaborate and work in a small team with little direction

• Knowledge and experience in connecting to external services

• An understanding of the Agile methodology, practiced is a nice to have

• Knowledge and experience in developing in a test driven model would be a big plus

• Demonstrated history of living the values important to Priceline: Customer, Innovation, Team, Accountability and Trust.

• The Right Results, the Right Way is not just a motto at Priceline; it’s a way of life. It’s therefore essential that you also meet our high standard of ethics, honesty, transparency and compliance.
