Job description

Senior Software Engineer Overview

Company Name: Triptease

Job Role: Senior Software Engineer

Qualifications: Not specified

Category: I

Job Type: Full Time

Location: United Kingdom

What we're looking for

• You build with coding agents in your day-to-day work and can explain how: what you hand to the agent, what you keep, and how you check the output.
• You verify by system, not trust. Tests come first, you review by risk, and you catch output that looks right but isn't. When something slips through, you fix the spec, tests or rules so it's caught next time.
• You've led substantial pieces of work end to end, more than once, and they were plainly yours.
• You lead technical decisions: you propose the approach, set out the trade-offs and bring the team with you.
• You've shared a way of working with agents that your team now uses, such as skills, guardrails or specs.
• You're collaborative, open-minded and comfortable pairing all day.
• Experience building distributed, high availability, high throughput systems that keep data consistent.
• You're proud of the code you ship and leave it better than you found it, whoever wrote the first draft.
• Tests are integral to how you build, and you use them to drive design.
• You're comfortable from client side to server side, with a lean towards back end.
• You love shipping and seeing how it performs in production: delivery pipelines, A/B testing and monitoring.
• You're customer-centric, work well with product managers, and spot the product decisions an agent would otherwise make by default.

Nice to have

• Public Git repos that show how you build with agents, such as agent rules, skills, specs or the harness you work in.
• You've thought about building for agentic clients, such as MCP servers and APIs.
• You have an entrepreneurial streak, with some great examples of how you saw an opportunity and made it happen.
• You have experience in several programming languages and value bringing ideas from other ecosystems into your current environment.

Pay & benefits

What you'll get

• Competitive salary package and rewards for high performance.
• Paid vacation days
• Enhanced maternity and paternity leave
• Monthly health and wellbeing allowance: use it for gym membership, private healthcare, massages, therapy, cinema and more
• Yearly learning allowance*
• Life Event leave (marriage, divorce, moving house, child's first day at school, ceremony or graduation)
• Make a Difference (volunteering) day
• Plus much more!

How you'll work

Location: remote, based in the UK, Spain or Portugal.

• Be part of a fast-paced, dynamic team at the forefront of travel technology innovation.
• Enjoy a collaborative and fun working environment with opportunities for personal and professional growth.

Our start-up culture means everybody's contribution matters and is celebrated. We set ourselves ambitious goals and are proud of our ability to deliver those through smart working. We're growing: get on board fast, be part of the journey, and have a real impact on an award-winning, fast-growing company.

• Working abroad for 4 weeks a year (within a +/- 3 hour time zone)

*Subject to passing probation
