Flight itinerary:

We are looking for Software Engineers to join our Dynamic Pricing product team.  This position is based in our Los Angeles (Santa Monica) office location.

FLYR is building a Dynamic Pricing product to distribute our ML-powered price points in real-time to airline price consumers.
