Experienced Full-Stack Developer for Travel-Tech Web Platform - 01/02/2026 06:19 EST

Job ID: 40195740

Budget: $10,000 – $20,000 USD

Overview
I’m looking for a senior full-stack engineer (or a very small, experienced team) to build the V1 of a production-grade travel planning platform.
This is not a marketing site or a basic chatbot. It’s a real product that combines a booking system with an AI-assisted planning engine. The expectation is clean code, solid architecture, and something that can actually run in production.
Full product details will be shared after NDA.
What You’ll Be Building (High Level)
A web app where users plan multi-day trips
AI-assisted itinerary generation using real, structured data (RAG)
Availability and pricing logic for bookings
A simple admin panel to manage data and bookings
A production-ready backend and deployment setup
Who This Is For
This is a good fit if you:
Are comfortable owning frontend and backend decisions
Have built and shipped real products, not just demos
Have hands-on experience with LLMs + custom data (vector search / RAG)
Can explain your architecture and trade-offs clearly
This is not a fit for UI-only roles or people limited to basic CRUD apps.
Expected Tech Stack
Frontend: Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind
Backend: Node.js / serverless
Database: Supabase (PostgreSQL + vector support)
AI: OpenAI or Anthropic APIs (LangChain or custom orchestration)

Milestone-based payments
Clear V1 scope
Full IP ownership transfers on completion
Potential for long-term work after V1
How to Apply
If you’re interested, please include:
A real project where you used LLMs with your own data
A short note on how you’d keep booking data and AI retrieval in sync
Your estimated timeline and fixed-price quote
Generic or copy-paste proposals will be ignored.
