And as a Booking Holdings (BKNG) company, the world's leading provider of brands that help people book great experiences through technology, we are part of the largest online travel company in the world. We have the dynamism and short chain of command of a startup and the capital to make things happen.

  • We write our code in the MVP pattern with a lot of lessons learned from earlier MVVM work. Our goal is to use the best patterns and SOLID principals to achieve ever-increasing code quality and team velocity
  • We are implementing with Mosby and our favourite Java8 features, which means you'll enjoy reading our code-base again and again because of how alluring it is
  • We love A/B testing features, this will help you better understand your audience and the impact of the work you do on the business
  • All of our work is covered by a solid suite of JUnit and Espresso UI tests (we're very serious about this - we have around 5 hours of UI tests if you run them serially!) We automate everything. Love of mockito, Robolectric, and adb required.
  • We support over 40 locales (and still haven't solved one key localisation challenge which is RTL)
  • Git lets us make our magic. We are unlike almost 99% of App development teams in that merge multiple scrum teams work constantly into a common code base. Expertise in all things Git - mandatory.

It's not unusual for our engineers to step outside of their scope to help the whole team grow and get better.

And since we have many scrums in the team, it's also not uncommon for engineers to have experience across different scrum teams where they can learn about different parts of the product.

Agoda puts engineering and product at the front and centre of the business. That's even more true of the mobile team, where, more and more, new strategic projects start with the app. You will get to work on lots of cool stuff and important business decisions are made right here.

  • You don't wait for things to come to you. You go out and get them. You're self motivated, communicative and get things done.

A day at the office

During the stand-up, you agree to work with Jamie (our cloud expert) on moving some domains to Route 53. The configuration is not complex, but you need to call with our current hosting provider. It's a bit of a challenge as it is hard to get the right information about what they are doing and when. However, you work closely with them and together you get it done by lunch.

In the afternoon you talk to the Product Assortment development team and discuss how we can use data from Google to give customers assortment recommendations. You discuss different options for implementation with the team and agree to join them next sprint for a few days to create an API Gateway with some Lambda functions and an Elasticache Redis cluster.
At the end of the day, Frank (senior developer from your team) demonstrates the new solution for the assets of the website. They are now being served from an S3 bucket, with CloudFront caching in front of it. It works great, so well take it into Production next week. After that, it's time to go out and have a nice specialty beer. You do check your beers in Untappd, right?

  • You are awesome with Linux, Windows or both! Since we have .NET, Delphi and PHP stacks we can use your experience.

  • You take pride in what you do, but welcome feedback.

A day at the office

You open a pull request in GitHub for your last changes in the Javascript codebase of one of the back-end services for our new faceted-search functionality. You have fixed a bug in a de-serialisation method that was causing metadata to leak from JSON objects. Considering the large amount of simultaneous, relatively small requests these services process, Node.js seemed the obvious choice. So you had to abandon your usual work field of PHP and give the old Javascript another chance. Once again it proved itself a powerful language, capable of building beautiful stuff. Maybe the front-enders were right after all? Now that this has been tackled, you return to PHP. You had this idea to optimise the determination of the sorting order of the filters on the site...

Team

You will be working in a family with three to five other developers, each of them with their own specialization, ranging from PHP to Javascript.
