Job description
We are looking for vibe coders :computer: [https://a.slack-edge.com/production-standard-emoji-assets/16.0/google-medium/1f4bb.png] to help us develop software / AI agents / any tools to improve hostel operation. We use
- Claude for vibe coding
- Railway (PaaS) to build, deploy, and scale web applications.
- API integrations such as Zapier, Slack, Home Assistant, ChatGPT, ... and more! Help us develop and operate a next-generation AI-Native "budget-hotel system" with a single goal: a world where anyone, anywhere, can travel with confidence. You will be working on producing software / automations / AI-agent related tasks, together with our core team. Typical activities:
- Brainstorm - ideas to improve our hostel operations (task management, cleaning, etc.) and the guest experience (communication, optional extras, etc.).
- Build - those ideas into simple, convenient and genuinely useful tools — using Claude for "vibe coding" (describing what we want in plain language and iterating together) plus APIs and integrations like Slack, ChatGPT, and other internal services.
- Design tools that learn — capturing useful operational data as people use them, so we keep improving and stay ahead in an AI-powered world.
- Test, refine, and document — try our apps as a real user, flag what helps and what gets in the way, and write simple guides for non-technical staff.
- Support the team — help colleagues learn to use and improve the tools themselves. Work Week: - 4 hours per day, 5 days per week (total 20 hours/week)
- Shifts are flexible between 9:00 and 22:00, to be coordinated with the staff who will work with you
- We will agree on a weekly schedule together so that:
- You have enough free time to enjoy the city and travel
- You still have overlapping time with the team for pair-working and feedback Who are we looking for:
- A responsible, collaborative team player who's happy working closely with others.
- An explorer at heart — excited to take a project from start to finish, and to meet new people along the way (both guests and fellow volunteers).
- Someone keen to share their experience and learn from the people around them.
- Bonus: if you can show us any relevant projects you've worked on, we'd love to see them.
