SVP, Technology

About the Company

Bookit is building a new-generation travel and loyalty platform for business clients and consumers. The company operates as a B2B2C super app that delivers premium travel bookings, VIP music, sports, and lifestyle experiences, and rewards that can be used across a wide partner network. Customers can save up to 70% on bookings, earn universal rewards points, and use the platform with more than 3,000 cryptocurrencies, debit and credit cards, and brand reward points. Its SaaS infrastructure is designed to modernize how payments and commerce work.

About the Role

Bookit is hiring an SVP of Technology to scale its Travel and Loyalty platform and lead the broader technology organization.

You should be able to communicate the company’s direction clearly, participate in key architectural discussions, and contribute when important engineering work requires executive-level involvement. You will need strong technical and commercial judgment, including the ability to decide when to build, buy, partner, outsource, hire, or use AI, and explain those trade-offs to other leaders.
