This is not a typical product role.

OnArrival is building the infrastructure layer for travel - flights, hotels, insurance, pricing, and orchestration ;exposed via APIs and embedded micro-apps for some of the largest fintechs in the world

If you’re looking to work on real systems (not just screens), read on.

⸻

What you’ll work on

• Search & orchestration

• Multi-supplier querying (GDS, NDC, aggregators)

• Fallback logic, latency vs coverage tradeoffs

• Pricing & margins

• Markups, discounts, rewards

• Cohort-based and partner-specific pricing

• Funnels & events

• Define and track events across the entire journey

• Debug real issues like payment success but booking failure

• Embedded micro-app

• Work on a <2MB app that sits inside partner apps

• Ensure seamless native + web experience

• Reliability

• Handle retries, failures, refunds

• Make systems work in production under real load

⸻

What we’re looking for

• 1-3 years experience (startup / engineering / consulting preferred)

• Strong problem-solving and structured thinking

• Ability to break down messy, ambiguous problems

• Basic understanding of how backend systems / APIs work

• Clear communication and documentation skills

⸻

➕ Bonus

• You can read logs or debug flows with engineers

• Exposure to marketplaces, fintech, or travel

• Familiar with tools like PostHog, Mixpanel, SQL

⸻

Not for you if

• You only care about UI/UX

• You want perfectly defined problems

• You think product = Jira + standups

⸻

How you’ll be evaluated

• Do your features actually work in production?

• Can you reduce failures, latency, and drop-offs?

• Do engineers trust your specs?

• Can you debug issues end-to-end?

⸻

Example problems

• Search latency > 3s → fix without reducing coverage

• Booking failures for a supplier → isolate + fallback

• Discounts killing margins → redesign pricing logic

• Hotel data inconsistent across suppliers → fix mapping

⸻

Why join

• Work on infra-level product, not surface features

• High ownership from day 1

• Build systems that power real businesses
