About the role
- For too long, managing travel and spend has been overwhelming and fragmented - we're here to change that.
- You won't be embedded in a single vertical - you're working on the substrate underneath all of them.
- When something embedded engineers keep solving locally needs to become a paved road, that's your work.
Responsibilities
- Lead the technical evolution of the control plane - not just keep it running, but decide where it goes next.
- Design and ship platform primitives (Terraform modules, pipeline templates, account/networking patterns) that feature teams adopt because they're better than the alternative - not because they're mandated.
- Partner with embedded infra engineers to identify recurring friction across verticals and turn it into self-serve capability.
- 8+ years building and operating production cloud infrastructure, with deep AWS expertise (multi-account, networking, IAM, security boundaries).
- Expert-level Terraform - you've designed reusable modules, run TFC at scale, and have opinions about state, drift, and execution patterns.
- A bias toward enabling teams over gatekeeping. You'd rather build the paved road than approve the off-road permits.
- the patterns, modules, and primitives you build are what they hand to feature teams.
- Environments for Success: Different roles have different needs in terms of the environments that drive success which is why we have a hybrid-hub model.
- Ready to Build the Future of Work Travel?
- Cost observability- tooling and dashboards that give teams visibility into what they own and spend.
Requirements
- Experience with platform engineering: shipping internal tools and abstractions that other engineers actually want to use.
Nice to have
- A bias toward enabling teams over gatekeeping.
- Cloudflare (WAF, DNS, zero-trust/WARP) at production scale.
- Datadog, JFrog, or comparable vendor integration experience.
- Background in cost observability or FinOps tooling.
- History of working in or alongside embedded/platform models - you understand the difference between a platform team and a ticket queue.
- Strongly preferred
