About OpenTable

With millions of diners, 60,000+ restaurant partners and 25+ years of experience, OpenTable, part of Booking Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: BKNG), is an industry leader with a passion for helping restaurants thrive. Our world-class technology empowers restaurants to focus on what matters most – their team, their guests, and their bottom line – while enabling diners to discover and book the perfect restaurant for every occasion. 

Every employee at OpenTable has a tangible impact on what we do and how we do it. You’ll also be part of a global team and its portfolio of metasearch brands. Hospitality is all about taking care of others, and it defines our culture.

About Us:

At OpenTable, we take pleasure in Software Development. We believe that velocity comes from a dedication to clean code and proven engineering principles. We deliver creative products through rapid, continuous development. We move fast, release frequently, and believe strongly in automated testing to help maintain our quality and velocity. We break things sometimes - and that’s fine. We learn from it. Millions of diners and thousands of restaurants around the globe use our products. If you are excited by constantly challenging engineering processes and can deliver exceptional quality in a fast paced, agile environment, we'd like to meet you. Bonus points if you love restaurants too.

About You:

You love to code. You’re curious, passionate and constantly thinking about making code clean and better. You love technology and enjoy finding better ways to do things. You want to share what you discover and feel energized when you can learn from the people around you. When you build software, you consider how people will use it from all angles. You take pride in carefully honing your work until it feels reliable and effortless to use. You are calm during incidents when debugging production issues across services and multiple levels of the stack

Join us to design and build the next-generation Enterprise Reporting platform—a mission-critical system that transforms how our company understands and plans for its future. This isn't maintenance; it's a greenfield architectural challenge to create a scalable, high-performance reporting engine powered by elegant, reusable visualization components. If you live to solve complex scalability problems and define the technical roadmap for products used by thousands, this role is for you.

What You'll Be Doing: The Core Impact

  • Hands-On System Leadership: You won't just delegate—you'll be in the code, actively writing, optimizing, and reviewing mission-critical code using React, Redux, TypeScript, and JavaScript. Drive performance and maintainability through continuous, deep engagement with the codebase.
  • Architectural Vision & Ownership: Define and own the entire technical vision for the Enterprise Reporting system. Lead the design and execution of intuitive, scalable UI architectures capable of managing immense data complexity and delivering a "single pane of glass" experience.
  • Frontend Mastery & Quality Champion: Design and build sophisticated, reusable abstractions and an integrated data layer between the UI and backend. Set the highest standard for quality by implementing robust, sophisticated testing strategies using React Testing Library, Jest, and Cypress.
  • Technical Elevation & Mentorship: Act as a force multiplier for the entire engineering organization. Elevate the coding standards, practices, and technical rigor of the team through meticulous code reviews, pair programming, and hands-on mentorship.

What You'll Bring: Your Expert Toolkit

We are looking for a highly experienced engineer ready to translate strategic goals into elegant, production-ready code while leading technical strategy and roadmaps.

Core Expertise

  • Engineering Decathlete (7+ Years): 7+ years of professional software development experience, with a proven track record of architecting, building, and scaling large-scale frontend applications in a collaborative environment.
  • Deep Code Mastery: Expert-level proficiency in JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js, and React. You write code that is not just functional, but a standard for readability, maintainability, and performance. You possess an unquenchable curiosity to master the technologies you work with.
  • Strategic Architecture: Proven history of deep investment in code architecture and successfully driving multi-year technical roadmaps on established, complex codebases. You excel at creating generic, highly reusable components and scalable module systems.

Leadership & Execution

  • Strategic Execution: Exceptional ability to own and drive large, cross-functional projects—from initial planning and technical specification through development, launch, and post-production monitoring.
  • Communication and Influence: The ability to articulate complex technical trade-offs (e.g., performance vs. complexity) to product managers, designers, and non-technical stakeholders. Experience collaborating intimately with design partners (e.g., leveraging Figma).
  • Ownership Mindset: You embrace full, end-to-end ownership of your systems. You leverage modern tools (including AI helpers) to maximize efficiency, while maintaining a rigorous, uncompromising standard for code quality and accuracy.
  • Quality Champion: A passion for pixel-perfect design implementation and a commitment to rigorous quality control through automated testing, manual exploration, and elevated code review practices.

Benefits and Perks

  • Work from (almost) anywhere for up to 20 days per year

  • Focus on mental health and well-being:

    • Company-paid therapy sessions through SpringHealth

    • Company-paid subscription to Headspace

    • Annual company-wide week off a year - the whole team fully recharges (and returns without a pile-up of work!)

  • Paid parental leave

  • Generous paid vacation + time off for your birthday

  • Paid volunteer time

  • Focus on your career growth:

    • Development Dollars

    • Leadership development

    • Access to thousands of on-demand e-learnings

  • Travel Discounts

  • Employee Resource Groups

  • Quarterly team offsites

  • Tax optimisation options

  • Generous health insurance

  • Pension fund

Work Environment & Flexibility

At OpenTable, we pride ourselves on fostering a global and dynamic work environment. As a team member with us, you will benefit from a schedule tailored to accommodate a global workforce operating across multiple time zones. While the majority of your responsibilities may align with conventional business hours, there will be instances where you are expected to manage communications - via calls, Slack messages, or emails - outside of regular working hours to effectively collaborate with international colleagues, respond to restaurant partners, and/or address urgent matters. OpenTable will always abide by and consider local laws and regulations.

Inclusion

We’re committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels they belong and can thrive. We know the best ideas come when we bring different voices to the table, so we're building a team as dynamic as the diners and restaurants we serve—and fostering a culture where everyone feels welcome to be themselves.

If you need accommodations during the application or interview process, or on the job, we’re here to support you. Please reach out to your recruiter to request any accommodations.
