About this Senior Full-stack Engineer (m/f/d) role at Numa
ABOUT NUMA
Hey there! We’re Numa, a forward-thinking hospitality brand redefining how people discover cities. We create spaces where simplicity meets innovation, offering thoughtfully designed rooms, studios, and apartments in the heart of Europe’s most vibrant neighbourhoods.
We’re not just transforming the guest experience—we’re revolutionizing the hospitality industry from the inside out. Our cutting-edge technology streamlines operations, delivering unparalleled value with no hidden fees—just real, quality experiences.
At Numa, we believe that travel should be curious and authentic, and we bring those same values to our work culture. As part of our team, you’ll experience a dynamic and supportive environment where creativity thrives, and your contributions make a real impact. We’re committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace where every voice is valued, and different perspectives fuel our innovation.
About the Role
We're looking for a Full-Stack Engineer to join our Travel Experience team. This is a tight-knit, guest-facing team building products in areas such as online check-in, trip management, guest communication, and authentication.
You'll be the third engineer on a team with a Lead Engineer, Product Manager, and Product Designer. The work is full-stack, though with a user-facing tilt. You'll build polished interfaces in Next.js while also shaping the NestJS APIs and services behind them.

- Next.js hosted on Vercel

What We're Looking For
Strong technical skills are important, but how you approach your work is just as important.
You're a good fit if you:
- Own your work. When something's unclear, you investigate, propose solutions, and unblock yourself. You stick to your word.
- Communicate proactively. When something's off, you raise it constructively in standups, retros, or Slack. Not as blame, but as a path forward.
- Obsess over quality. We're guest-facing. Details matter. You catch the edge cases, polish the UI, and don't ship "good enough."
- Learn fast and stay curious. You seek feedback, evolve your skills, and aren't defensive when someone challenges your approach.
- Have good product taste. You understand trade-offs, think beyond the ticket, and balance technical decisions with what's best for the guest experience.
- Thrive in a fast-paced environment. We move quickly. You're energized by that, not overwhelmed.
- Lift others up. You share context, give thoughtful code reviews, and help teammates grow. You're patient when pairing and generous with your knowledge.
Requirements
- 4+ years of professional full-stack engineering experience
- Strong experience with Next.js, TypeScript, React, and CSS
- Strong experience with Node.js and API design
- Hands-on experience with serverless (Lambda, DynamoDB, SQS, SNS)
- Comfortable with Agentic workflows, able to leverage agents in a structured way
- Fluency in English
- Self-starter with an ownership mindset
Nice to Have
- Familiarity with NestJS
- Experience with Infrastructure as Code (SST preferred)
- Exposure to Clean Architecture or Domain-Driven Design patterns
