About Tripadvisor
The Tripadvisor Group connects people to experiences worth sharing, and aims to be the world’s most trusted source for travel and experiences. We leverage our brands, technology, and capabilities to connect our global audience with partners through rich content, travel guidance, and two-sided marketplaces for experiences, accommodations, restaurants, and other travel categories. The subsidiaries of Tripadvisor, Inc. (Nasdaq: TRIP), include a portfolio of travel brands and businesses, including Tripadvisor, Viator, and TheFork. About the Role
We’re looking for a Software Engineer II to join our fast-growing team. This role is open to candidates based within a commutable distance (generally within 1–2 hours) of our office hubs in Oxford. We embrace flexibility in where and how work gets done and also value meaningful in-person moments to connect and collaborate. You can expect a remote-first working model with periodic in-person gatherings at your closest office for team connection, planning, or other key moments. Within Tripadvisor Experiences we have a fun and friendly environment where the key objective is getting things done. Working closely alongside product managers and designers, our engineers are part of the full process from software design, to code, to test, to deployment and back again. Most of our engineers release code to production every few days and we have a daily release cycle. What You'll Do
At Tripadvisor Experiences, our Engineers are versatile problem-solvers who thrive on a wide range of technical challenges. This is a backend-focused, full-stack role where you'll primarily work on backend systems, with occasional front-end projects. You don’t need to be a front-end expert — if you're eager to learn, we’ll support you on the job, and front-end skills won’t be assessed during the interview process. Our web stack includes Java, GraphQL, Kubernetes, SQL and NoSQL databases, all running on AWS. While experience with every tool isn't required,
