Zusammenfassung

Flight Centre Travel Group's FCM unit seeks an Engineering Lead to own the architectural blueprint and end-to-end solution design for reshopping across hotel and air. You will drive integrations, set interfaces, and align multiple teams to one design in a hybrid Barcelona or London setting.

Reporting to the Program Leader, Reshopping, you will scale the system, push for observability and AI-assisted development, and help modernize the technology stack while maintaining auditable, deterministic

Qualifikationen

• 7+ years in software engineering, including significant time in a solution design, architecture, or technical lead capacity.
• Proven at owning an architecture across several contributing teams and keeping them building to one design.
• Deep backend engineering grounding, with distributed, event-driven systems running in production.
• Proven at integrating third-party systems you do not control — retries, idempotency, partial failure, versioning, and vendor service levels.
• Experienced in cloud-native delivery (Azure preferred), containerization, CI/CD, infrastructure as code, and test automation.
• A track record of building systems where incorrect automated behavior carries real financial or customer consequences, and where every minute of degraded service costs money, credibility, and reputation.
• Skilled at automating a previously manual process in production, incrementally rather than by rebuilding it wholesale.
• Grounded in travel technology — GDS, NDC, hotel and air content, and the servicing workflows behind a booking.
• Informed about where AI genuinely adds value in systems that must remain auditable and deterministic.
• Able to explain technical trade-offs to commercial and operational stakeholders without flattening them.
• Comfortable supporting more than one product roadmap at once, and effective at driving outcomes with distributed or fully remote teams.
• Degree in Technology, Engineering, or a related field preferred.

Aufgaben

• Own the end-to-end solution design for reshopping across hotel and air, spanning the resources within the program and the teams we depend on.
• Own and maintain the architectural blueprint, keeping every contributing team building to the same picture, and making trade-offs explicit.
• Oversee the build and construction — design reviews, technical quality, and confidence that what is delivered matches what was designed.
• Act as the technical counterpart for engineering teams that contribute to reshopping but sit outside the program: agree interfaces and sequencing peer to peer, and elevate to the Program Leader when the question becomes one of priority or funding.
• Drive integrations across partner platforms, including hotel and air content sources, mid-office, ticketing, and invoicing.
• Design partner integrations so that adding or changing a provider is contained work rather than a rebuild.
• Own engineering estimation and sizing, and push back where a requirement is not yet specific enough to size, or where the business rationale is not yet clear.
• Design the end-to-end system to scale, including the steps that remain manual.
• Establish observability, alerting, and service levels for a system that acts unattended on customer bookings, with staged rollout and kill-switches by market and client.
• Evaluate where AI and automation can improve outcomes while maintaining appropriate levels of auditability and deterministic logic.
• Champion an AI-assisted software development lifecycle, applying AI across design, build, testing, and review to lift both the pace and the quality of what we deliver.
• Drive innovation in how we build — modernizing the technology stack and our ways of working, and making the case for change where the current approach limits what reshopping can become.
• Contribute to a safe, inclusive, accessible, and fun work environment where all Flighties feel welcomed, respected, and supported to thrive.
