Frontend
At Stayforlong, travel is more than a transaction; it's a journey of extraordinary moments. Born in Barcelona in 2015, we set out to disrupt an industry dominated by massive corporations. We believe in the power of prolonged stays — the longer you stay, the deeper the connection, and the better the rate. Travel on your own terms.
Our Culture 🤝
We are a team of 120 people in a dynamic, collaborative environment where every idea counts. We are inclusive by design, committed to equity and diversity, and serious about real work-life balance. Above all, we work by five cultural principles:
Ownership: We own our commitments, decisions, results and impact.
Trust: We create safety to speak openly, ask for help and share context.
Respect: We listen, prepare for the meeting, stay present and communicate with respect.
Give & receive feedback: We say things early, directly and constructively — and we welcome feedback, adjusting our actions and behaviour in response.
Play / Fail / Learn: We experiment, learn fast, pivot when needed and celebrate the learnings.
The Mission 🚀
You will join our Product and Development team—a forward-thinking group of engineers, designers, and data engineers devoted to crafting innovative solutions. Focusing on the frontend, you will design and evolve our products to become the preferred brand for travelers and accommodations worldwide.
Your impact
Build & Scale: Develop the frontend for our web-based product in an Agile environment using AI tools to ensure maintainable and scalable code.
Integrate: Connect web applications with backend services through REST/GraphQL APIs.
Quality: Ensure code quality through testing (unit, integration, E2E), helping to improve the team's harness, and conducting thorough code reviews.
Optimize: Monitor and optimize application performance, accessibility, and user experience.
Mentor: Guide the development team through pair programming and best practices.
Collaborate: Define technical requirements and solution architecture alongside the product team.
Our Tech Stack 🛠️
We leverage a modern toolkit to keep our customer-facing applications high-performing:
Frontend: Our customer-facing applications are built with TypeScript and Next.js (React), alongside AI tools like Claude Code and Devin.
Backend: Services are written with Golang, PHP7, and Python.
Data: We leverage Redis, Elasticsearch, and MySQL.
Communication: Flows through JSON APIs, gRPC, Protobuf, and Kafka.
Monitoring: We monitor our systems with Datadog and Graylog.
Operations: Performed on top of Docker, Ansible, Jenkins, Slack, and Git.
Infrastructure: Everything runs on AWS.
Who You Are
We value diverse technical backgrounds and a passion for building complex, production-grade web applications by working effectively with AI rather than relying on pure "vibe coding".
Experienced: You have proven experience building complex web applications with modern JavaScript/TypeScript and React.
Architect: You have a solid understanding of CSS architecture, Design Systems, and frontend architecture strongly based on Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles in JavaScript.
Testing Advocate: You are experienced in writing comprehensive tests and ensuring high code quality.
API Savvy: You have deep knowledge of RESTful APIs and modern HTTP protocols.
Mentor: You have a track record of mentoring developers and conducting effective code reviews.
Nice to Have: Familiarity with Clean Architecture, building testing harnesses, performance monitoring (Web Vitals/Datadog), or Web Accessibility (WCAG).
Fluent in Spanish and English.
