Bridge Engineer

About us

Based on our mission to contribute to society by creating jobs in local communities through our travel business, we have developed and operated our own travel booking website "skyticket", which allows users to search, compare, and purchase everything from low-cost airline tickets to hotels and tours.
The application released in 2015 has surpassed 20 million downloads, and regardless of the travel industry, we have continued to maintain profitability even with the Corona disaster, achieving record profits in June 2023, and expanding our overseas subsidiaries to four countries.
The company is a growth listed company that is now in a phase of transformation, with global expansion of business and internationalization of the company in progress!

Background of Recruitment

We are currently in a phase of globalization and new business development, and have established overseas subsidiaries and are increasingly interacting with overseas employees as development bases.

However, we are short of human resources to connect development bases in each country, and are looking for members who can collaborate with local engineers and manage progress.
