Senior NodeJS Backend Dev JavaScript

Dtravel ( is a community-owned and governed platform for the home-sharing economy. Think of it as Airbnb with lower fees, built to benefit hosts and guests instead of a corporation that prioritizes shareholder interests above those of its community.
Dtravel is a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO), which means that decisions to guide the network are controlled by community members. Members are people who hold the TRVL token. All revenue from Dtravel bookings is funneled back into the Community Treasury and Protection Fund, which exist for the benefit of hosts and guests
