Base pay for engineers starts in the six figures, you get to build your own battle station, and every engineer gets an office – with a door.

Room 77 - https://www.room77.com

We're changing travel search by giving people full transparency in their search for a perfect hotel stay. Using the staggering amount of data we've collected and analyzed, we'll actually find and request the best hotel room for you.

Some projects you'll work on:

- computer-generating views from any room in the world

- building the first deep-text hotel search engine (eg. search "eiffel tower views" in Paris or "jetted bathtub" in New York)

- super-fast search across all major providers (we show Expedia results faster than Expedia)

- finding better ways to extract and expose data like hotel freebies and fees

...and many other things that contribute to a fast, easy travel planning experience.

If you're interested in information retrieval, machine learning, NLP, or computer visualization, you'll have a great time solving brand new problems and creating a genuinely improved and useful hotel search.
