About Resortpass

Book a hotel pool or spa day pass starting at just $25. Enjoy over 2,000 world-class resorts without the overnight stay. Backed by CRV.

About the role

A day pass is sold by capacity. A cabana is reserved as a unit. A massage needs a time slot and available resources. Each has different rules for inventory, pricing, and cancellation. Those rules must remain correct wherever a booking begins. We are hiring a Staff Engineer to lead the evolution of our booking platform and external API. You will help distribution partners and authorized AI agents book the same inventory as ResortPass guests.

What they're looking for

  • You have led substantial technical work across multiple engineers or teams, from an ambiguous business problem through launch and operation
  • You have designed transactional systems and APIs or integration platforms that other teams or companies depend on
  • You understand relational modeling, concurrency, consistency, and asynchronous workflows, including what happens when systems fail or disagree
  • You have safely evolved an existing production system and can explain when to extend it, simplify it, or replace part of it
  • You remain a strong hands-on engineer. You make pragmatic tradeoffs and help teammates deliver without becoming the approval point for every decision
  • You communicate clearly, listen carefully, and build trust with engineers and business partners. You can challenge an assumption and change your mind when the evidence changes
More about this role

ResortPass is redefining what it means to be a hotel guest. We give people daytime access to pools, beaches, spas, cabanas, and other hotel experiences without an overnight stay.

We work with more than 2,700 hotel partners across 30 countries. We have served more than 7 million guests and generated hundreds of millions of dollars for our hotel partners. Marriott has signed a global agreement with ResortPass, and Hilton has expanded its partnership with us.

We have proven the demand. Now we are building the booking and distribution platform that can bring hotel experiences to many more guests, categories, and channels.
