We are looking for a highly experienced Travel Tech Consultant or Strategic C-level Expert to help guide our travel tech product through a critical growth phase. At this stage, we are primarily looking for a consultant or a strategic leader who can support us with deep expertise — both technical and business — in the travel industry. However, if the collaboration goes well and the candidate is interested in a long-term partnership, we are open to discussing a permanent leadership role in the team (e.g., Chief Travel Technology Officer, VP of Travel Product, etc.).
The ideal candidate should have strong knowledge of API integrations for online travel agencies, particularly in hotels and flights. Experience with activities/tours is a strong bonus. A solid understanding of travel business models, partner negotiations, and strategic product development is essential.
Key Responsibilities:
• Provide consultation on API integrations with HotelBeds, Sabre, RateHawk, Amadeus, and other major providers for hotels and flights.
• Assist with activity booking integrations (such as Viator, GetYourGuide) if applicable.
• Offer technical expertise on booking systems, API structures, and troubleshooting.
• Lead negotiations and verifications with partners (hotels, flights, and activity providers) to ensure smooth integrations and compliance.
• Advise on unit economics, booking forecasts, deposit structures, and marketing insights to optimize business performance.
• Collaborate with the team to streamline integrations and improve platform efficiency.
• (If moving into a C-level role) Help define product and tech strategy, lead execution, and participate in key company decisions.
Requirements:
• Proven experience in travel tech integrations (hotels & flights APIs required, activities APIs are a bonus).
• Strong business acumen – understanding of booking forecasts, pricing strategies, and revenue optimization in the travel industry.
• Experience in negotiations with partners for API integrations and verification processes.
• Ability to consult on both technical and strategic levels.
• Prior work with online travel agencies or similar businesses.
• Experience in negotiations with investors is a strong bonus.
• Fluent in English, excellent communication skills.
Application Note:
If you do not have direct experience with hotel and flight API integrations, please do not apply. However, lack of experience with activity APIs is not a dealbreaker if you excel in hotel and flight integrations. We are looking for someone who can bring immediate value without the need for training.
