Solution Architect (.NET / Azure)

About Gimmonix

We are a leading travel technology company processing millions of hotel booking requests daily. Our advanced distribution platform enables real-time price comparison, room mapping, and automated content enhancement by connecting global travel suppliers with online travel agencies.

As we scale our platform, we seek to enhance its reliability, maintainability, and performance, tackling challenges like high concurrency, data consistency, and sub-second response times at scale.

Role Overview

We are looking for a hands-on Solution Architect to drive the architectural evolution of our high-load backend systems built on .NET and Azure.
