At SuitePad, we're shaping the hotel room of the future!
SuitePad is a Berlin-based SaaS + Hardware company focused on hotel tech.
We deliver hotels’ aggregated content, entertainment, and services through in-room tablets and other software- and hardware solutions. The depth and quality of our services have made us the market leader for in-room guest communication in more than 90,000 hotel rooms across the globe. Our customers include renowned international hotel groups like Best Western, Leonardo, and Oetker Collection. As a team, we are proud of the industry recognition we have received (Hotel Tech Report, Hotelverband Deutschland (IHA), Gastro Vision, and more).
Our mission is to provide a reliable, effective, and delightful platform for guest communication.
Join our journey
We are looking for a Frontend Engineer, who shares our passion for creating products that add value to our users. It’s the outcome that counts, not the output.
To thrive in this role, you are someone who loves to collaborate, values communication and embraces adaptiveness.
We see this role as a lot more than a job. Rather, it is a journey in various ways:
- A journey of bringing digitalisation to the hotel industry and meeting the increasing demands of tomorrow’s hotel guests
- A journey of growing with your team members
- A journey of being part of a growing organisation, assuming new responsibilities, and taking on new challenges
- People first: reinforce and support our frontend team
- Drive for improvements: not only in code but in everything we do
- Technical planning: provide estimates and help with prioritisation
- Provide expertise: on topics such as architectural decisions, code quality, and performance optimization
- You are a team player and thrive on helping others to succeed
- Strong background in Javascript + testing
- Familiarity with modern Javascript frameworks is a must
- Fluent in English: both written and spoken
- Good writing skills
- Ember.js knowledge is not required, but nice-to-have
- Experience with TypeScript would be advantageous
Our Stack
Our frontend applications are mainly written in Javascript with Ember.js and React. That includes applications that serve the hotel guests, the hoteliers, and our operations team (see section "What we build ")
The SuitePad platform is built on a service-oriented architecture that powers 10s of thousands of devices. Our infrastructure runs on AWS, facilitating technologies like auto-scaling, multi-availability zones, and serverless technologies. The backend applications are mostly written in Ruby and Elixir.
Our custom hardware devices (mostly tablets) are powered by a suite of Android (Kotlin) apps, which serve our Guest Directory (written in Ember.js) and various other products.
Our data stores are PostgreSQL and Redis. AMQP and MQTT is used to enable communication between applications and devices.
We use GitHub, CircleCI, and CodeClimate to help us get things done.
What We Build
As a team, we build hardware and software solutions to provide a delightful platform for guest communication, both for the hotel guests and the hoteliers.
On the one hand, we augment the in-room experience for the hotel guests with products and features such as the Digital Guest Directory, various Remote-Controls, VoIP, and Contactless Checkout.
On the other hand, we also provide solutions to help hoteliers optimise their operations: be it managing their content, gaining insights into analytics, or various integrations to increase their efficiency.
