Golang Job: Software Engineering Manager

We want the best talent (at) stayforlong, and we want you to help us to grow as a team and as a company.

We are Stayforlong, the first hotel marketplace specialized in long stays. We reward people with amazing discounts the more nights they stay in a hotel! Because we consider that it is unfair to pay the same if you are going to spend more time : )

We have a wide range of hotels and we collaborate with companies such as Trivago, Tripadvisor, Google Hotel Ads, and Kayak.

We have digital DNA. We love challenges, moving fast, thinking out of the box, and inspiring people who want to take the company to the next level. Besides, we stand out for our multiculturalism, be flexible, and work in an agile environment.
