This dual-platform flexibility provides the team with valuable surge capacity without requiring a dedicated mobile engineering hire.

• Build performant, accessible, and SEO-optimized web experiences across the guest-facing digital platform
• Contribute to back-end development: RESTful or GraphQL APIs, server-side logic, and data integration
• Collaborate with the design and UX team to implement responsive, pixel-accurate UI components
• Support the Senior Mobile Software Engineer on React Native development during mobile feature sprints or larger enhancement cycles
• Write and maintain automated test scripts (unit, integration, and end-to-end) as a standard part of the development workflow
• Participate in code reviews and contribute to shared front-end component libraries and design system standards
• Integrate with third-party APIs and services: CMS (Drupal), booking systems, and analytics platforms
• Ensure web performance, accessibility (WCAG 2.1), and Core Web Vitals standards are met

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience
• Strong expertise in React and Next.js (App Router, SSR, SSG, and ISR patterns)
• Proficiency in TypeScript
• Back-end experience with Node.js or equivalent; comfortable building and consuming REST/GraphQL APIs
• React Native development experience with the ability to build and maintain cross-platform (iOS/Android) features
• Experience writing automated tests using Jest, Playwright, Cypress, Detox, or similar tooling
• Solid understanding of web performance optimization and Core Web Vitals
• Excellent written and verbal communication in English

Preferred Qualifications (Nice-to-Have)

• Experience publishing and maintaining apps on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store
• Familiarity with Expo or React Native CLI build tooling
• Experience with headless CMS integrations: Drupal, Contentful, Sanity, or similar
• Knowledge of state management libraries: Redux, Zustand, or Jotai
• Experience in hospitality, travel, cruise, or luxury consumer digital platforms
• Familiarity with analytics instrumentation: Google Analytics 4, Segment, or Amplitude

Key Competencies

• Web-First Engineering: Delivers high-quality, performant Next.js features as the core of the role
• Mobile Flex: Applies React Native skills to support and accelerate mobile development when the team needs it
• Quality Mindset: Builds automated test coverage into the development workflow as a standard practice, not an afterthought
