Job Title
Manager, Engineering, Airline Offer Creation – Nevio- Open Offer Platform
Job Description Summary:
Lead a team mixed team composed of several engineering profiles (Software developers, QAs, PDAs, DevOps…).
Amadeus Nevio is the new flagship product suite currently under construction by Airline Solution teams. It is designed to unlock the Retailing Transformation for our Airline customers. This new platform leverages NDC standards of communication, Offer & Order paradigm as well as Retailer/Supplier model for interline.
The OFR division is one of the 3 pillars of this transformation along with Order and the Touchpoints. In that division, the department Inventory and Open Offer (IO2) is responsible for both:
- the new Inventory/Stock Keeper that hosts the quotas, counters and bookings associated with products sold through Nevio
- the Open Offer resource, that materializes Offers proposed by the Nevio Ecosystem as a whole and that is used to generate the Orders that materialize the contract between Airlines and travelers.
The team IO2- O2P is responsible for the Open Offer platform, one of the building blocks of our new Offer Management system, at the heart of Nevio’s architecture.
We are operating critical components in a Cloud native ecosystem. This is bringing a complex and rich environment with challenges at the same time:
- functional: Offer is the central resource of Nevio Offer Management System, and its Open Data model is supporting all new features of Nevio
- technical: We are leveraging modern technologies (Java Cloud Native Stack with Skube/Quarkus, micro services, event driven architecture, Kafka/Nats) to build a modular and scalable system.
- Operational: Billions of Offers are generated daily, and the resource is therefore extremely intensive in term of computation, memory and storage and is therefore key for Amadeus FinOps
We are designing the future of airline products! If you are willing to be a game-changer, to grow and evolve in a very dynamic and innovative environment, take the challenge and join us!
