Senior Frontend Engineer

This will be a remote role to start, with plans to transition to hybrid 2x/week in office, likely in downtown Toronto, Canada.

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.

We're seeking a Senior Frontend Engineer to work on the Availability Planning and Experiences team. The Availability Planning system is the engine that powers our OpenTable for Restaurants product. It is where a Restaurant goes to define their schedule and shifts, as well as the placement of their tables; and it has a complex array of settings to control how those tables are used by their diners. As we keep adding more controls, we are always thinking about how we can ensure these controls interact with each other in sensible ways, and how we can give Restaurants precise control and power without making it too complex for them to use. We also enable Restaurants to create their own Experiences, providing an increasing number of ways in which Restaurants can define interesting and unique events for their customers to attend.

Our codebase uses JavaScript and TypeScript with the React and Redux frameworks. We make extensive use of testing using the React Testing library, Jest, and Cypress.

• Have 5+ years of full-time professional experience working in a team environment.
• Possess strong communication skills, especially the ability to represent the technical trade-offs between different potential solutions.
• Can drive projects from technical planning to production.
• Write code that is readable and maintainable.
• Have proficiency in JavaScript, Node.js, and React (knowledge of TypeScript is a bonus).
• Carefully test work for bugs while ensuring consistency with requirements and design, and can build automated tests as well as understand how to use them properly.
• Have experience implementing designs and collaborating with designers using tools like Figma.
• Invest in the architecture of the code being written. Create abstractions; find opportunities to create generic and reusable code; and build an integration layer between the UI and backend systems, rather than putting everything directly in the UI layer.
• Show full ownership over the code written, and take the time to learn things being worked on that are not understood.
• Have worked on codebases that were several years old before starting to work on them. Comfortable providing feedback to others via a code review process, and receiving feedback others have provided via this process.
• Adopt emerging AI technologies like Copilot and ChatGPT to enhance workflow, while also taking ownership of the results produced by these technologies and carefully checking them for accuracy."

• 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
• 20 days of paid time off upon start
• Private health and dental insurance
• Life and Disability insurance

There are a variety of factors that go into determining a salary range, including but not limited to external market benchmark data, geographic location, and years of experience sought/required. The range for this remote Toronto, Canada-based role is $130,000-$175,000 CAD.

We offer a competitive base salary and benefits including: health benefits; flexible spending account; retirement benefits; life insurance; paid time off (including PTO, paid sick leave, medical leave, bereavement leave, floating holidays and paid holidays); and parental leave benefits. This role is eligible to be considered for an annual bonus and equity grant.

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.

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.
