About Omio

Omio is pursuing a vision of bringing global transport into a single distribution system and creating end to end magical consumer journeys. While the whole world of air, hotels or car rental is normalized, rail, bus, ferries, airport transfer, all forms of ground transport are fragmented on a local level.

Omio is the largest source of inventory with 1000+ suppliers operating in 35 countries in Europe and North America. Along with their two brands, Rome2Rio used for global discovery, and Omio used for ticketing and journeys, they attract 600m+ users on a yearly basis while continuing to launch new geographies, new verticals and new products as they scale. It’s a team based in Berlin, with offices in Prague, Beijing, Melbourne and NY. 

They are a team of more than 350 passionate employees from more than 45 countries who share the same vision: to create a single tool to help send travellers almost anywhere in Europe, the U.S. and Canada.

Features will be shipped across all Omio's front-ends with the aim of monetizing user traffic while delivering superb user experience.

What you will do:

• Create robust frontend solutions using state-of-the-art technologies. You will build components that are used throughout all of Omio’s frontends (mobile, desktop, apps)

• Work with your team to rapidly test ideas on users, use results for iterations and improve our product

• Test new languages, libraries and frameworks and evaluate their potential to make sure we never stop innovating. You will share best practices with other teams and help make those a company standard.

• Build highly reusable frontend components that can be dynamically mounted in any react frontend

• Apply your engineering experience to automate processes and help to guide the team during the decision making

• Up to code: You have more than 5 years of experience in software development, you write clean, lean, effective code, all version controlled. You pick the right tool for the job and are not limited to a single paradigm or language

• Pragmatic: You and your team take on complex multi-domain problems, analyse, design, build modular solutions, and deliver end-to-end in an MVP, value-first and iterative approach

• An automator: You remove repetition and snowflakes through scripting and automation tools. Whatever can be automated will be automated. You have deployed, monitored, and supported applications across stacks and technologies

• A tuning expert: You have improved performance and analysed bottlenecks in production systems through benchmarks and stress tests. You are no stranger to profiling a front-end.
