We're building the next generation of travel—tools that anticipate traveler needs, empower discovery, and redefine what it means to wander. Join us at the frontier of travel tech, where creativity meets craft and AI shapes the journey.

About the role

As a Design Engineer at Wander, you'll be the bridge between design and code—turning bold, beautiful concepts into real, high-performing products. You’ll work across our web and mobile experiences to bring our AI products, booking flows, and other consumer-facing projects to life. Your work will influence how millions of travelers experience the world.

What you’ll do

  • Collaborate with Product, Design, and Engineering to bring high-fidelity designs to production—polished, performant, and delightful.

  • Build, maintain, and evolve our design system in both Figma and production environments (React, React Native, TypeScript).

  • Prototype and ship interactions, animations, and flows that feel fluid and intuitive.

  • Ensure consistency and accessibility across web and mobile platforms.

  • Help define new interaction patterns for AI-driven travel products

  • Work closely with engineering to balance craft and performance at scale.

What we’re looking for

  • Proven experience (4+ years) as a design engineer, frontend engineer, or fullstack engineer with strong design sensibilities, or designer who codes very fluently.

  • Strong proficiency in React, TypeScript (or similar), with fullstack knowledge

  • Knack for crafting usable, intuitive, and delightful interactions

  • Comfortable moving from concept to coded prototype quickly

  • Experience building or contributing to design systems and component libraries

  • Participate in code reviews within our repo and help level up peers

  • Collaborate cross-functionally on system design and product discovery in an async-first workflow

  • Write clean, well-documented, and thoroughly tested code

  • Bonus: experience with AI-powered products or other complex consumer applications

Our Tech Stack

  • Frontend: Next.js, Tailwind, Vercel

  • Backend: Node.js, TypeScript, Fastify

  • Database/Cache: PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka

  • ORM: Prisma

  • LLM: OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, Langfuse

  • Cloud: GCP

Why Wander?

  • Shape elegant AI-powered experiences in a company revolutionizing travel.

  • Join a mission-driven team dedicated to raising hospitality standards through technology.

  • Work remotely with real autonomy and creative ownership.

  • Be part of a fast-growing, venture-backed startup with industry-leading guest satisfaction.
