Job description
Engineering Manager - Connectivity
Company Overview
About Nuitée Nuitée is redefining online travel through API-first technology that brings demand and supply into one connection – no more intermediaries or third-party layered solutions. Exclusive travel experiences are no longer optional – they’re expected. For demand or fintech partners like Revolut, access to premium hotel inventory isn’t just a perk – it’s a strategic differentiator. But there’s a problem – the best hotel inventory is locked into a legacy system designed for OTAs to win. As long as the inventory is locked behind intermediaries designed to protect OTA margin, true differentiation is impossible. We know because we spent 5 years trying to unlock this inventory. But we didn’t build another white-label OTA or aggregator or reseller feed. We built a singular connection for partners to access exclusive hotel inventory at the source. It’s the ability to tap into true direct access – inventory that’s never been on any OTA; real control over availability, pricing, hotel value adds, and dynamic AI merchandising with configurable perks. After 20 years in a locked ecosystem, partners can finally turn travel into a branded margin-positive differentiator that builds loyalty – and wins. We let hoteliers own their inventory and let demand partners own the relationship.
Nuitée provides infrastructure APIs tailored for the travel sector, offering a user-friendly solution to transform hotel connectivity and distribution. Its technology platform serves as a vital link between accommodation providers and demand partners. The business started with a simple API and white-label solution that enables businesses and brands to offer a comprehensive hotel booking system. Today Nuitée became a multi-product ecosystem that allows businesses to create their own booking apps, monetize their audience, and establish ongoing revenue streams while retaining full control over their brand and pricing.
