Description

👤 Your role

  • You will lead the technical design and implementation of new partner integrations and platform features, blending technical expertise with product management to own the end-to-end delivery and business impact of your work.
  • You will own the full lifecycle of your services—from development and deployment to production monitoring, alerting, and incident response.
  • You will actively manage our AWS cloud infrastructure, writing and maintaining Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) to ensure environment parity and security.
  • You will evolve our integration strategy, championing a platform-first mindset that drives synergies across our integration ecosystem, while ensuring high-performance, secure communication between internal and external systems.
  • You will leverage cutting-edge AI-powered tools across the entire software development lifecycle—from system design and code generation to infrastructure automation, log analysis, and performance monitoring—to drive innovation and efficiency.
  • You will provide technical support and create high-quality documentation to ensure the long-term maintainability of our connectivity layer.

📋 Responsibilities

  • Lead technical design and implementation of partner integrations.
  • Own service lifecycle: develop, deploy, monitor, alert, and respond to incidents.
  • Manage AWS infrastructure using Terraform (IaC).
  • Create and maintain high-quality technical documentation for internal teams and partners.
  • Use AI agents and tools to automate infrastructure, log analysis, and performance monitoring.
  • Optimize system performance and ensure high availability of integration services.

✍🏼 Requirements

  • 5+ years of software engineering experience, with a focus on backend development.
  • Strong API & Integration Experience: Deep understanding of RESTful API design, HTTP, authentication/OAuth, and webhook management.
  • GraphQL Familiarity: You understand GraphQL concepts, as this is required to interact effectively with the APIs of our partners.
  • DevOps/Cloud Skills: Proven experience with AWS (e.g., ECS, Lambda, RDS), CI/CD pipelines, and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform).
  • Observability: Strong experience setting up and maintaining monitoring and alerting solutions (e.g., New Relic, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, or Datadog).
  • Technical Documentation: Ability to translate complex system designs into clear, actionable documentation.
  • Solid experience with modern backend languages (e.g., PHP/Laravel and Node.js/TypeScript).
  • Expertise in database design (MySQL, NoSQL) and optimizing queries for large-scale data.
  • AI-based automation: Proficiency in integrating and leveraging AI-assisted programming and agents in your daily workflow.
  • Fluency in English, with strong communication skills for customer and partner-facing situations.
  • Experience with containerization (Docker).

🎀 Nice to have

  • Experience building "connector" layers or integration platforms.
  • Familiarity with travel industry and booking platform connectivity standards (e.g., OCTO).
  • Knowledge of e-commerce platforms, payment processing, or accounting data structures.
  • Experience building agentic applications.
  • Additional European languages - especially German or Italian - are a plus.
  • Experience with technical product management, bridging the gap between engineering and business outcomes.
