Senior Software Engineer

Senior Software Engineer – Hybrid (1–2 days per week onsite)

The Opportunity

An opportunity to join one of the most exciting early-stage AI companies operating at the intersection of enterprise SaaS, data, and corporate travel.

The client is the AI-powered Mission Control for Corporate Travel — enabling global enterprises to manage $50M–$1B travel budgets with real-time data, accountability, and cost optimisation.

Backed by Series A funding and signing enterprise contracts bi-weekly (mid-to-high six figures on 3-year deals), this is a rare opportunity to join at just 25 employees — right at the inflection point of serious scale.

The Why? (Top 3 Reasons to Join)

1️⃣ Massive Impact at the Perfect Time

With just 25 employees split between Europe and the US, you’ll join at a stage where every line of code materially impacts enterprise customers managing over $4B in spend.

2️⃣ Enterprise Traction, Startup Energy

Trusted by world-leading companies representing over $4T in market value. Contracts are closing every two weeks. Product-market fit is proven — now it’s about scale.

3️⃣ Real Ownership, Real Visibility

You’ll own features end-to-end and demo your work to the entire company every Friday. Your contributions will be visible, valued, and directly tied to growth.

The What..

The client is looking for a Senior Software Engineer (4–7 years’ experience) to join their founding engineering team.

This is for builders.

• People who thrive in ambiguity.

You’ll design, build, and deploy full-stack features across:
