Where the journey began…
From humble beginnings when traveling back in 2014, our co-founders at Parkos embarked on our journey to ensure that the beginning and end of your travel experience are as enjoyable as the actual adventure between!
We make airport parking a smooth, seamless and efficient process for all travelers using our TravelTech price comparison & booking platform.
We started off by winning the major airports within the Netherlands and now operate in over 15 different countries and 3 different regions (and counting)! We’ve grown to over 100 Parkie’s and millions of travelers choose Parkos every year!
The team
Our Offer Management team is responsible for managing topics such as fast search, yield management, managing pricing and availability as well as onboarding new airports & merchants.
This is currently a team of 4 Software Engineers, a dedicated QA, and a dedicated Product Owner. This team is primed for expansion.

- Good understanding of when to select different database & storage technologies for any given task
- An owner mentality and challenger mindset would set you up for success with Parkos
What we offer
- Flexible working: We understand that people’s circumstances vary and allow you to decide where you work from. We can support on-site, hybrid, and fully-remote (so long as the timezones aren’t too far apart!)
- Ownership: Take ownership of your work and have the opportunity to drive lasting change within Parkos
- Growth: We provide the autonomy and personal development support for you to move quickly through the ranks at Parkos - the sky's the limit!
- Transparency: We talk about our plans, allow everyone a voice, work together towards common objectives, and share our successes together as a team
