Gordian enables airlines to sell ancillaries via any third party websites. Travelers no longer need to call the airline if their seat or bag will be included with their ticket. On the other hand, airlines and online travel agents no longer need to spend months and years trying to integrate these products. To make this happen, they're working with companies serving millions of travelers every year including Air Canada, Travix, and Otravo.

Since 2017, Gordian has integrated more than 100 airlines, signed up some of the largest travel websites in the world as customers, and done it all while profitable and growing 30% per month. They are backed by Y Combinator and based in Burlingame, California.

Gordian hires people who fit their 3 core values: Freedom, Impact, Ownership. Here are some questions that highlight what they're looking for:

Freedom - How will you handle ambiguity and rapidly changing scenarios? Will you take initiative and move forward based on what is best for the team and our customers?

Impact - Do you move towards the most important work, even if it is tough or inconvenient? Are you energized by challenges or discouraged by it?

Ownership - How do you handle it when things go wrong? Can you work well with your teammates to help them succeed and get the help you need?

These are their 3 most important qualities and they hire for them even at the expense of technical skill. Now they're looking for a Full-stack Software Engineer to join their small but ambitious team.
