About The Role

At Booking.com, we know that travel means more than booking a hotel room or flight. The dreams you have and the plans you make. The places you visit, the sights you see, the journeys you take.

There are countless moments that shape every travel experience and we seek designers who can help curate and guide those moments to make every part of travel easy and enjoyable.

Innovation and creativity are at hand. Through our products, partners and people, we strive to make it easier for everyone to experience the world, be that through unique and remote homes, luxury hotel accommodations, long-term stays, compelling loyalty and reward programs, transportation and flight bookings, curating the connecting trip.
