Cloud-based hospitality management for hotels
The hospitality industry is uniquely human, and it deserves technology that’s just as inspiring as the people behind it. At Mews, we’re transforming the industry with a platform that helps hotels run smarter, move faster and create better guest experiences.
You’ll work with smart, curious people who care deeply about what they do. You’ll have autonomy and the trust to make good decisions and move quickly. And you’ll enjoy a real sense of purpose as you see the impact of what we’re building.
If you’re motivated by ownership, curiosity and meaningful impact, and are driven to deliver consistent high performance, you’ll feel at home here.
Let's get into the specifics. It’s impossible to capture every nuance of a role – especially at a rapidly growing company like Mews – but if we had to distil it into a job description (which we do because this is a job description), it would be this:
You will own the agents, skills and standards that let a tribe of product builders move quickly on payments without the architecture fragmenting. Hotels take payments across regions and through providers that each behave differently, and Payment Interfaces exists to give customers one coherent payment experience on top of several PSPs. Embedded payments at this depth is rare among European SaaS companies, so the problems here are ones few engineers get to work on.
You will be a Staff Engineer in the Payment Interfaces team, part of the Fintech tribe. You will report to the Director of Product and Engineering, sit in the tribe’s leadership group, and work alongside product builders, other staff engineers and product managers. No one reports to you, so your influence comes from the architecture, tools and standards that other people choose to work in.
The team integrates several PSPs depending on region and conditions. When integrations drift apart, builders slow down and quality suffers. This role exists to keep them coherent by encoding what good looks like into tools and agents, so every builder meets the standard by default.
AI Fluency Level 4: in this role, that means you build the AI systems the tribe works in, not only use them. You design the agents, skills and evaluations that builders rely on every day, make the engineering decisions about how they behave, and set the rules for when an AI answer can stand and when a person must step in.
