Travelchime

Travelchime is building tools to make leisure travel easier. We’re a YC W19 graduate who’s looking to hire our second (non-founder) engineer and first designer. We believe that travel makes us and the world better, and are trying to lower the bar to travel by bringing together all the information you need to travel in the best tool to organize your plans. Our product so far is a Google Docs for planning travel and sharing recommendations. We’re an engineering and product-heavy team. A typical week’s work involves talking to users, prioritizing tasks on a kanban, designing on Figma, and building and shipping continuously. Harry and I have worked at Stripe, McKinsey, and Google and studied Computer Science at Yale. We’ve built profitable travel businesses in the past, and at Travelchime, we try to take the best parts of each of our past workplaces and bring them together. We believe in work-life balance. We work regular hours, take time off as a team to eat lunch together (and even cook!), exercise, and enjoy time with friends and family. We love travel and believe it rejuvenates us and makes us closer to our friends, and have quarterly travel offsites where the goal is to just enjoy visiting a new place and use the tools we’ve built. If you enjoy travel, and would love to make it easier for the rest of the world to do it, send us a note at founders@travelchime.com! We’d love for you to join our team.
