ph3About Agoda /h3 pAt Agoda, we bridge the world through travel.

Our systems cover all major areas of our business: website, mobile apps, affiliate apis, inventory and pricing, product information, customer data, communications, partner data, booking systems, payments, finance and more. These mission‑critical systems change frequently with dozens of releases per day, so we must employ state‑of‑the‑art CI/CD, experimentation and advanced testing techniques in order to make sure everything works without any downtime. We also ensure that our systems are self‑healing, responding gracefully to extreme loads or unexpected input. In order to accomplish this, we use state‑of‑the‑art languages like React, Redux state management, Javascript, Kotlin, Scala, data technologies like Kafka, Aerospike and Big Data, and agile development practices. Most importantly though, we hire great people from all around the world and empower them to be successful. Whether it’s building new projects like Flights and Packages or innovating on the latest fintech idea or reimagining our existing business, you’ll make a big impact as part of our Engineering team. /p h3The Opportunity /h3 pThe Senior Engineering Manager role at Agoda is one of the most significant and challenging roles in Technology.
