My first job out of college was to be a part-time data entry employee for the early-stages travel startup Hopper. I started by doing data entry, then I was offered to become the data entry team-lead. I was in charge of monitoring the content team's productivity, conducting recruiting tests, training new employees, reporting directly to CEO Frederic Lalonde.
Immersed in a highly innovative, fast-pace environment, I learned all about big data, elastic search, the daily life of developers, and how to turn a travel database technology into a successful product. Hopper since became one of the most popular travel app in the world with more than 30 million users. .
I was offered a full-time position a few months later. I then worked on defining the editorial line for , along with data scientist Patrick Surry and now Hopper's Director, Dakota Smith, to showcase Hopper's expertise regarding the travel market.
