The hospitality industry is uniquely human, and it deserves technology that’s just as inspiring as the people behind it. At Mews, we’re transforming the industry with a platform that helps hotels run smarter, move faster and create better guest experiences.
You’ll work with smart, curious people who care deeply about what they do. You’ll have autonomy and the trust to make good decisions and move quickly. And you’ll enjoy a real sense of purpose as you see the impact of what we’re building.
If you’re motivated by ownership, curiosity and meaningful impact, and are driven to deliver consistent high performance, you’ll feel at home here.
Let's get into the specifics. It’s impossible to capture every nuance of a role – especially at a rapidly growing company like Mews – but if we had to distil it into a job description (which we do because this is a job description), it would be this:
Mews is working toward a future where hotels recognise guests at scale, deliver personalised experiences across the entire journey, and give staff the tools to act with confidence in real time. This role owns the engineering organisation that builds it.
You'll direct a significant part of our Front of House engineering — a cross-product area that includes guest recognition, personalised experiences, automation, role-aware workflows, and joined-up guest journeys. You'll work across Product, Design, Data, and other engineering directors to turn a clear long-term strategy into execution, at a moment when the Front of House department has made quality, delivery rigour, and proactive operational health a deliberate priority.
The problem this role exists to solve is real and complex: how do you scale a guest experience platform to recognise and personalise across millions of interactions, while keeping delivery fast, systems healthy, and teams sharp? That requires someone who can set engineering direction, coach engineering managers, and hold a high bar — without needing to be the person writing all the code.
Mews serves thousands of properties globally, and the data and distribution advantages that come with that scale are genuinely uncommon. This is a chance to shape the engineering organisation that makes that advantage meaningful.

Our success is powered by our incredible people, supported by benefits that help them thrive.
No matter where you’re based, you’ll enjoy:
You'll receive additional benefits that vary by location, from healthcare and retirement plans to team events, socials and other perks. Ask us about it during your interview process.
We’re an equal opportunities employer. We value teams that reflect the diversity of the customers and communities we serve. Different perspectives make better ideas, stronger products and a more welcoming company.
We also believe transparency is important when deciding if you're the right fit. Mews is an ambitious, high-pressure environment of continuous learning and high standards. Success here requires resilience, adaptability and a willingness to solve difficult problems.

If Mews sounds like the kind of environment where you'd thrive, we'd love to hear from you.
