Job Description

At HotelTonight, we take enormous pride in the product experiences we deliver to both customers and hotel partners. We build amazing products by questioning the standard way of doing things. We are looking for an outstanding product designer who shares our passion for beautiful, practical products that earn raves from our peers and our customers.

You may have seen our apps (or even booked a hotel through them!), but you should know that we’re far more than an app developer. Because we’ve built the world’s first mobile-only online travel agency, there’s a lot of code behind the scenes to process transactions, interface with hotels and determine which ones go on sale each day.

Every day, the team faces the challenges of scaling to support our increased booking volume, building a unified global platform and adapting to the newest mobile technologies, all while keeping our apps fast and our UX clean and simple. To accomplish this, we utilize whatever technology is best to solve a particular problem, not necessarily the one we’re currently using.

iOS Developer | Responsibilities:

  • Develop the world’s best iOS applications for iPhone and iPad
  • Push the envelope with what is possible with iOS, keeping the product true to our core product values of Simplicity, Beauty & Fscking Usefulness, but taking advantage of the newest features and rejecting the common ways of solving problems.
  • Work with the rest of the team to extend our APIs and other systems to support your ideas.

iOS Developer | Requirements:

  • Excellent knowledge of iOS, Cocoa Touch, and related technologies.
  • A passion for iOS and Apple products. You have published apps in the App Store and they have stellar reviews.
  • Excited by and familiar with the tools and methodologies we use for building great software, including Git, Objective-C, a multitude of open source libraries, and tools and techniques for a great development environment.
  • Damn opinionated. If something isn’t up to our level of quality, even if it’s not what you’re working on directly, we expect you to make a stink and help us improve it.
  • Independent and product-focused. We expect our developers to also define big portions of the products they build. If you want to be handed a complete product spec on your first day, you’d probably be happier working elsewhere.

Benefits:

  • True startup experience — no bureaucracy and a ton of tough decisions that have a real impact on the business
  • A chance to become an expert in mobile travel while it’s a nascent, growing industry
  • Camaraderie of an amazing team that is working tirelessly to build the next great travel company
  • Great SF office location at 5th and Market (if you don’t live in SF but have the legal right to work for any employer in the US, we’ll move you here)
  • Excellent health, dental, vision and 401K plans. Generous compensation and stock options too!
  • Sweet perks — Annual travel stipend, your choice of equipment and a giant monitor, catered lunches and breakfast a few times a week, unlimited coffee and snacks, a partially subsidized gym membership at Sports Club/LA, access to our very own hotel-inspired full bar, and a gong that you’ll get to bang when you ship something amazing.
