Hi there 👋
I’m Joonas, CEO and founder of MeetingPackage. We’re hiring a strategic yet hands-on Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to lead our next chapter. In this role, you’ll set technology strategy and architecture, grow and inspire a high-performing, highly engaged engineering team, mentor and coach engineers, and build trust across functions.
You’ll lead our ~20-person Engineering team, guiding day-to-day execution and long-term vision. You'll partner closely with Product to move fast while upholding quality. You’ll live our core values daily: Transparency, ownership, teamwork, ambition, and laughter. This new global leadership role is based anywhere in Europe, with regular time at our Espoo HQ in Finland.
As a member of the Management Team, you’ll shape company-wide decisions and build a culture of technical excellence and cross-functional collaboration. Our Engineering team builds the technology that enables suppliers and bookers to have a seamless group-booking experience on our platform while being connected to different integration systems. This unique position sets us apart in the hospitality industry, and we’re continually strengthening it with targeted technical improvements and automation.
Now, let's see what our technologies and tools look like in Engineering:
Why you’d like it here if you
We are a software company that allows hotels and event venues to sell, operate, and manage their Meetings & Events spaces and services. We improve the Meetings & Events booking process for meeting planners and event venues. We integrate with venues’ existing Property Management, Sales & Catering, and back-office solutions while delivering products to all customer-facing channels. Products include Venue & Sales Management Software, an online Booking Engine, and a Meetings & Events-specific Channel Manager. We aim to provide more than 1 billion USD of annual revenues to our venue partners by the end of 2025. 🚀
We’re a diverse team of 50+ professionals from 20+ nationalities. We value transparency, communicating with trust and honesty, and ownership, embracing an "I'll figure it out" attitude. Teamwork is essential—we learn from and support one another, always striving to win as one. Our ambition drives us to think big, tackle challenges, and continuously improve. And through it all, we never forget the importance of laughter—taking our work seriously but not ourselves, staying friendly, open, and always ready for a good laugh. We come together regularly e.g. organising kick-off events—most recently in Finland and Estonia in August 2025.
