| When we hire you at KAYAK, we promise to make you more productive than you've ever been, and we promise we will make KAYAK become the most fun place you will ever have working. We will surround you with exceptional peers -- people who are really quick, and who can somehow figure out how to balance risk-taking (good) with master craftsmanship (good). We also work to form a team of people with excellent balance in their lives, and with whom you love working with every day. We strive to make KAYAK become the best site on the web, and the favorite app on your phone. We are going to do this by our hunger to create the best team in tech, and by focusing that team on customers more than any tech company in existence. Do you think you have what it takes to work at KAYAK? Our commercial teams are in Norwalk CT US and London UK, and our R&D teams are in Concord MA US and Sunnyvale CA US. To join our commercial team, you probably need several years experience as a world-class performer in the travel tech industry. To join our R&D team, you just need the world-class part. (We actually discourage hiring tech people with travel industry experience, as we think the best creative minds are at their peak when they see problems for the first time). We don't post job openings on our website, as that has resulted in more resumes than we can possibly process. If you have an amazing track record of creating successful products, and are interested in interviewing at KAYAK, we suggest you find someone you know who knows one of our team members, and then get your friend to send us your resume with a note from them. KAYAK actively seeks to add more diversity of all types to our team, especially of spoken languages, but also of new sports and bar games. |
