TEAM MISSION
GetYourGuide knows a lot about travelers, and we want to make better use of that data. Identity, booking history, browsing behavior, care conversations, preferences and predictions all sit in separate systems, in different shapes. The User Platform team is a brand new function with truly outsized opportunity for impact. They are building the traveler context layer: resolving who someone is across devices and sessions, and turning scattered signals into a shared, interpretable, and predictive understanding that every team can build on. As this function matures, the scope will extend to our other users over time.
ROLE OVERVIEW
As an Engineering Manager, you will own the vision and set up for a new platform at GetYourGuide. You will be working with a Product Manager, engineers, an embedded data scientist, and an analyst. You will define what the traveler context layer holds, how it is served, and which problems it solves first. This is a genuine zero-to-one opportunity. Your team will design the identity model, the semantic memory that both humans and LLMs can read, the forward-looking predictions on top of it, and the self-serve interfaces that make it usable.
