Principal QA Engineer - Pricing Integration & OrchestrationBusiness Environment
Entity : CPS - SSP (Search, Shopping and Pricing)
The Search, Shopping and Pricing (SSP) division 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), in operations (25 000 transactions per second), in data (350 million of fares, petabyte scale historical data sets), and in software (23 million lines of code).
To serve the main SSP goal, i.e. returning the best travel solution, the Pricing Integration & Orchestration (PIO) department interacts with Reservation, Ticketing and Pricing Engine entities. 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.
More than a third of our department members have a Scrum Master or Product Owner responsibility as part of their contribution to the different Agile teams we are working with.
Come join our more than 60-talented people department with a strong will to help others and a great team spirit!
Objectives
Acts as a functional and technical lead responsible for defining and spreading best practices around QA methodology among PIO organization.
