Job description

The ad as published by the employer.

KAYAK, part of Booking Holdings (NASDAQ: BKNG), is a leading travel search engine. With billions of queries across our platforms, we help people find their perfect flight, stay, rental car and vacation package. We're also transforming business travel with a new corporate travel solution, KAYAK for Business.

As an employee of KAYAK, you will be part of a travel company that operates a portfolio of global metasearch brands including momondo, Cheapflights and HotelsCombined, among others. From start-up to industry leader, innovation is in our DNA and every employee has an opportunity to make their mark. Our focus is on building the best travel search engine to make it easier for everyone to experience the world.

At KAYAK for Business, we're building the future of corporate travel technology — and the engineering teams behind it are at the heart of that mission. As a Sr. Engineering Manager, you'll lead one or more agile engineering teams delivering software that helps companies and their travelers move smarter and with less friction, while playing a key role in shaping our growing engineering hub.

This role will be required to work from our Vilnius office at least 3 days per week.

10+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 5 years in an engineering leadership or management role directly managing software engineers, and a proven track record of leading productive teams and shipping high-quality software in a fast-paced environment; equivalent experience, training, or transferable skills considered.

Hands-on experience with modern software development tooling — including version control systems (e.g., GitHub), issue tracking (e.g., Jira), and logging or observability platforms — and a demonstrated openness to adopting AI-assisted development tools to improve team productivity.

Salary consists of three elements

  • Base pay: from 7080 EUR up to 7900 EUR gross monthly.

In addition

  • Significant yearly bonuses, approx 15% percent of annual salary.
  • Booking Holdings RSU (Restricted Stock Units) package, worth 50,000 USD gross, with possibility to receive yearly refreshes.
  • Salary range provided is not final and will be discussed during the process based on your skills and experience.

At KAYAK, we want everyone to have the space to grow, share ideas and do great work. That’s why we’re focused on hiring the best talent from all walks of life and experiences, supporting them well and making sure no one feels like they have to fit a mold to belong here.
