About Zaui

At Zaui, quality is at the heart of everything we build. We are a small but fun team!

For over two decades, Zaui's enterprise-level tour and reservation management software has helped tour and activity operators manage operations, grow bookings and create all-round memorable guest experiences.

We have a big vision of the future of technology in the tourism industry, and we're excited to be part of shaping it. We are looking for creative and highly skilled individuals to join our team and help us on our way to becoming an innovative leader in our industry.

As a

Junior Software Engineer

at Zaui you have the unique opportunity to work across both our

web application (Vue + PHP/Laravel + MySQL)

and our

mobile apps (React + React Native)

.


You'll gain hands-on experience in building features, fixing bugs, and shaping the future of our platform that powers tour and activity operators worldwide. This is an ideal role if you're eager to learn, excited about working in multiple stacks, and want to grow into a well-rounded full-stack developer.

As a Junior Software Engineer, you will:

Utilize your Vue and React skills to create well-thought-out, reusable components. Contribute to our mobile application using React Native. Use SASS (in Vue) and modern styling approaches (CSS modules, styled components, etc. in React/React Native) to implement designs based on Figma renderings. Use ES6/modern JavaScript/TypeScript to manipulate data inside components and state management libraries (VueX/Pinia, Redux, or Context). Update and maintain REST APIs using PHP/Laravel whenever needed. Implement new features in our PHP backend with a focus on reusability and testing. Write and maintain unit tests and integration tests for both front-end and back-end code. Debug and resolve issues across the full stack (front-end, mobile, back-end, and database). Consistently collaborate with team members to improve the software on a daily basis. Participate in code reviews and provide constructive feedback.

This may be the right opportunity for you if you have:

1-3 years

of Software Development experience (internships or co-ops will also be considered). Professional experience with

Vue (VueX/Pinia, Vue Router)

and/or

React/React Native

, preferably within a SaaS or product environment. Experience with

PHP frameworks

(such as Laravel). Familiarity with front-end technologies: HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, TypeScript. Experience with relational databases (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL). Understanding of object-oriented programming and best practices. Basic understanding of RESTful APIs and web services. Agile development experience using tools like JIRA is an asset. Willingness to learn and adapt across multiple stacks (web and mobile). Ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment. Strong written and verbal English skills. Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related field (or equivalent practical experience).

Why join us?

This is an exciting opportunity to join a lean, collaborative engineering team and receive hands-on mentorship from Senior Engineers. As a fully remote company, we value flexibility and encourage our team members to take ownership of their work, explore new ideas, and continuously grow in their careers.
