Job Title

Senior Software Development Engineer

Business Environment
 

The Travel, Shopping and Reservation (TSR) entity develops products designed to serve multiple customer segments: providers (airlines, alliances, and railway operators), distributors (travel agencies, online travel agencies, tour operators) and new intermediaries (meta-search). The market is innovative, with a strong push from the online players (Google/ITA, Kayak, Expedia …), competitors (Vayant, Sabre) and significant business model evolutions (NDC). The platform supporting these processes is of massive scale in infrastructure (100 000+ cores computing the transactions), operations (billions of transactions yearly), data (petabyte scale data sets), and software (tens of million lines of code).

To serve TSR purpose, the Pricing Integration & Orchestration (PIO) applications interact with Reservation, Ticketing and Pricing Engine components. PIO comes into the picture right before the customer payment to recompute the price given at shopping time if needed, ensuring the customer pays the right price.

PIO department expertise lies in flight tickets and additional services pricing, on top of aftersales flows (Amadeus Ticket Changer, Service Changer…).

Through its contribution to several SAFe Agile Release Trains, the department plays a key role in the definition of the Airline IT and the Travel Distribution business areas through projects such as Offer Management System, Nevio and Travel Platform, among other topics shaping the future of Amadeus.
