Are you passionate about development, scalable data architectures, complex data transformations, and handling large data streams on the fly - all to deliver the best BI solutions in the hospitality industry? Great, then read on!

About the team:

The Triometric team at OTA Insight maintains and develops a pipeline of real time data to give valuable insights into the health and performance of our customers' business and technology infrastructure. Its mission is to reliably monitor, transform, aggregate and store real time search and booking data that powers our deep analysis BI product - Triometric. We are able to consume data from a number of inputs, from piecing together TCP packets or ingesting messages from a kafka queue. Some installations monitor up to 3 billion transactions a day to be reported on in near real time, sometimes as little as 2 minutes behind the transaction occurring. This reporting is integral to the running of our customers' business to be able to spot real time issues as well as plan for the future in terms of marketing, rates and inventory. The team works in close collaboration with our Product team, as well as a highly talented group of software engineers, devops engineers, and project managers to drive initiatives forward.

Today we process billions of data points containing hotels' pricing information, search data, hotel bookings, etc. All of that using modern technologies. Being a growth company enables us to regularly attract new and interesting datasets, which can unlock new product directions.

About OTA Insight:

OTA Insight is a scale-up within the hotel industry. Founded in 2012, with a vision to provide user friendly tools to hoteliers. Today we are considered the global leader in hotel BI and are working with 50,000+ hotels worldwide in 168 countries. As there are more than 1 million hotels worldwide, we are still filled with ambition to grow further.

We generate value to our customers by visualising actionable insights out of our vast datasets. Our tools help hotels to analyse their competition’s room pricing, analyse their hotel revenue, and find out where and when guests are looking and booking. Our products have a profound impact on the day to day activities of our customers, taking away guesswork and simplifying their routines. This has allowed us to grow rapidly over the past few years, adding new products as we solve new problems for our users.
