Companies you'll love to work for

OTA Insight is a commercial platform for the hospitality industry (our clients are AirBnB property owners, individual hotels, management groups and major chains like Hilton, Accor, etc.). And these are exciting times at OTA Insight! Our mission to bring smart decision making to the hospitality industry has levelled up as we recently raised another round of funding ($80 million) and welcomed two new companies, Transparent and Kriya, to our organisation to keep evolving our product portfolio!

Ready to have a big impact in an ambitious scale-up?

The role we’re looking to fill is a career defining opportunity for someone passionate about this mission, data, as well as product management who wants to collaborate with a world-class team of engineers, designers, and researchers. You will help inspire, design & build the products that fuel OTA Insight’s vision to empower hoteliers to make smart revenue, marketing, distribution & financial strategies. You’ll have a direct impact on product strategy, roadmaps, and the detailed design of new experiences that help hoteliers all over the world.

• Define product features and craft product specifications. Work with Design, Research and Engineering to assess tradeoffs and feasibility.
• Collaborate with your team in thinking big, to imagining future solutions that solve these problems, but scope these solutions to their smallest coherent state to ship to customers as early as you can
