About Engine

Engine is the all-in-one travel and spend management platform trusted by 38K+ businesses and groups representing 1.8M+ travelers. We're the retailer and the rails of business travel, one of the fastest-growing companies in travel tech, built on a decade of proprietary technology, supply, and pricing no one else can replicate. Other travel and AI companies run on our infrastructure to book real trips, hold rates, and move payments, without building any of it themselves. We built it, AI-forward at every layer, from how travelers book to how the rails run.

We're looking for bold, ambitious people to help redefine how businesses manage and experience travel. Working here, you can expect exponential growth, an ambitious pace, full ownership, and high-caliber colleagues who push you to do the best work of your career. Every hire raises the bar.

Come outpace the ordinary and build the future of travel with us.

We're looking for a Senior Software Engine er who combines strong system design instincts with the communication skills to work across technical and non-technical stakeholders. This is a backend-heavy role with a lot of autonomy, real technical challenge, and a team that runs on AI.

What You'll Do

Drive the design and implementation of greenfield services, replacing legacy code with modern microservices, strong test coverage, and production-grade observability Collaborate closely with Product Managers and other Engine ering teams to translate requirements into engineering solutions Use AI tools (Claude and/or Cursor) as your primary development environment Drive projects independently: own your work, surface blockers, keep things moving

What We're Looking For

Required:

AI fluency — you're comfortable using Claude, Cursor, or similar tools as your main coding interface; you don't just use them occasionally
Strong system design skills — you can walk through architectural decisions you've made, explain tradeoffs, and think at the infrastructure level
Proven delivery — you've shipped complex systems, not just features; you can speak to the weight and scope of what you've built
Self-directed working style — you don't need daily direction; you identify what needs to happen and drive it
Comfortable handling ambiguity — cross-team requests don't always come in neatly scoped; you ask the right questions and figure it out
Adaptable to shifting priorities — lodging is the highest-demand vertical at Engine ; plans change
Excellent communication — you can explain technical problems clearly to non-technical stakeholders like accountants and business ops teams

Nice to Have:

Java or Kotlin experience (most of our services are Java/Kotlin; not a hard requirement with AI in the loop)
SQL and relational databases

Terraform, Datadog, or Splunk experience

This is an evergreen opening, we review applications on an ongoing basis. This is a full-time, contractor role for candidates based in Latin America.
