The Opportunity
Our client is a luxury travel company that designs and operates high-value, custom trips and events. They are a small team running a substantial operation, with internal systems that support programs, travelers, inquiries, payments, vendors, communications, reporting and daily operations. Quickbase sits at the center of the business today and holds much of its business logic, workflows and operational knowledge.
The company is now building the next stage of its internal operating platform: a broader operational layer that connects and improves existing systems while adding better workflows, automation, scheduling, integrations, dashboards and internal tools. The goal is not to rebuild Quickbase with newer technology, but to understand how the business runs today, preserve what works, simplify what can be improved and modernize the platform without disrupting daily operations.
You will become the technical owner of the client's internal business systems and a key owner of this new platform. This is a full-time, long-term opportunity that combines hands-on implementation with strategic judgment: deciding whether the right answer is a Quickbase improvement, an automation, an integration, a custom feature, or a clearer process. You will play a central role in shaping and evolving the platform as the company's technology roadmap expands.
What you'll do
- Map the existing Quickbase applications, including tables, relationships, formulas, reports, dashboards, roles, permissions, Pipelines and workflows.
- Work with sales, operations and leadership to understand how work moves through the company and surface undocumented business rules.
- Maintain and improve Quickbase as the new platform develops around it, covering data structure, formulas, permissions, data quality, de-duplication, auditability and performance.
- Build workflows and automations for intake, follow-up, handoffs, approvals, reminders, deadlines, pre-trip and post-trip processes, recurring checks, reporting and exception handling.
- Design and build integrations between Quickbase and CRM, email, telephony, transcription, document, finance, vendor and travel services, defining source of truth, sync rules, record matching, conflict handling and failure recovery.
- Build modern dashboards, role-specific workspaces and web-based tools that make everyday work faster and clearer.
- Help decide what should stay in Quickbase and what is better handled by custom software or another system.
- Apply AI selectively to practical tasks such as transcription, extraction, classification, summarization, search and drafting.
- Work safely with sensitive client data using access controls, secure…
