The posting

Welcome to MICE DESK

 MICE DESK is the leading European company automating the sales process in the hospitality industry — and we are now expanding to the US.

Our platform, Rocket, turns event, meeting, and group inquiries into autonomous end-to- end workflows: from RFP to signed contract, across email, CRM, and PMS systems. We integrate with the systems hotels actually run on — Oracle OPERA Cloud, SIHOT, Guestline, Salesforce, Marriott's enterprise stack — which means our engineers work inside real hotel operations, not against sandbox APIs.

We are a Series A-stage company with a deliberately small team and real enterprise traction: major hotel groups across Europe run their group sales on Rocket. The people joining now shape the product, the deployment playbook, and the culture.

We are looking for a skilled Senior Backend Engineer to join our engineering team.

What You Will Own

1. Backend platform development and ownership.

Own the design, development, and maintenance of backend services and APIs that support enterprise clients and the MICE DESK integration platform. Ensure services are reliable, scalable, and aligned with business and customer requirements.

2. Third-party integrations and data workflows.

Design and maintain integrations with external systems, including Property Management Systems (PMS), CRM platforms, booking systems, and other enterprise applications. Build reliable synchronization workflows using APIs, webhooks, background jobs, and appropriate failure-handling strategies.

3. Backend architecture and technical decisions.

Contribute to architectural decisions, technical design discussions, and continuous improvement of backend systems. Help define scalable solutions, improve system reliability, and drive technology improvements across the platform.

4. Code quality and engineering standards.

Develop clean, maintainable, and testable code following backend engineering best practices. Participate in code reviews, technical discussions, and help improve engineering standards and development processes.

5. Cross-functional collaboration and delivery.

Collaborate closely with Frontend, DevOps, QA, Product, and Customer Success teams to deliver reliable end-to-end solutions. Support effective communication, alignment, and successful delivery of product features.

6. Performance optimization and system reliability.

Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks across backend services. Optimize database queries, improve data processing efficiency, and contribute to building stable, high-performing systems.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
