·        Write unit tests before or alongside your code, and review your teammates’ code.

·        Support the Solution Architect on the overall design of the systems you build.

·        Write SQL to query live application data for investigation and analysis.

Who you are:

·        Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field.

·        5+  years of experience in software engineering.

·        Hands-on experience with one or more of Elixir, Go, JavaScript, Python, Java or C#.

·        Comfortable working across programming languages, keen to learn new ones, and using AI tooling to support development.

·        Demonstrated problem-solving, analytical and logical reasoning skills.

·        Excited about system design, cloud-first architecture and implementation strategy.

·        Experience instrumenting services with logging and telemetry, using tools like Splunk or New Relic.

·        Familiarity with caching, high-concurrency systems and the databases behind them.

·        Experience writing unit tests, ideally test-first.

·        Illustrated history of living the values necessary to Priceline: Customer, Innovation, Team, Accountability and Trust.

·        The Right Results, the Right Way is not just a motto at Priceline; it’s a way of life. Unquestionable integrity and ethics is essential.
