Get to Know our Team:

The Data department oversees all of Agoda's data-related requirements. Our ultimate goal is to enable and increase the use of data in the company through creative approaches and the implementation of powerful resources such as operational and analytical databases, queue systems, BI tools, and data science technology. We hire the brightest minds from around the world to take on this challenge and equip them with the knowledge and tools that contribute to their personal growth and success while supporting our company's culture of diversity and experimentation. The role the Data team plays at Agoda is critical as business users, product managers, engineers, and many others rely on us to empower their decision making. We are equally dedicated to our customers by improving their search experience with faster results and protecting them from any fraudulent activities. Data is interesting only when you have enough of it, and we have plenty. This is what drives up the challenge as part of the Data department, but also the reward.

The Opportunity:

The role is for an individual contributor who will act as a satellite, overseeing execution and design within the DevOps Engineering group while ensuring the team focuses on improving Developer Experience and removing bottlenecks in development. The DevOps Engineering group plays a critical role in accelerating the software development lifecycle across Agoda's R&D, supporting a fast-moving, high-impact environment.

This group is tasked with creating automation throughout the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) for all of Agoda's R&D, maintaining and enhancing central Dev-related tooling, and developing internal tools/web portals to increase development efficiency, security, and scalability. With a scale of approximately ~2M CI Jobs per quarter, the work we do impacts over 2000 developers, helping them deliver faster, more reliable code.

Our fast-moving nature and ability to innovate give us the unique opportunity to drive change that directly shapes and optimizes how development teams at Agoda build, test, and deploy software. As part of this group, you'll have the ability to influence and drive meaningful improvements that impact all development efforts at Agoda.

In this Role, you'll get to:

• Oversee the execution on an internally developed engineering platform – "Developer Portal" which is intended to automated the SDLC from design to deployment.
• Oversee that Agoda maintains CI/CD best practices and automating security testing at the speed of DevOps at a very big scale (~2M CI Jobs per quarter)
• Maintain all central Dev-related systems for source control, CI, Service Discovery, and more.
• Bridging the gap between Development and Operations
• Full-stack development for internal portals and tooling
• Review systems design, push for tech adoption
• Mentoring engineers for best practices of engineering and quality

What you'll Need to Succeed:

• Engineering first approach and great coding skills in a modern programming language (preferably Rust/Go/Kotlin)
• Hands-on experience with the whole SDLC: Requirement, Design, Code, Test, Deploy
• Deep Knowledge of Development ecosystem tooling: Git/CI/Docker/Kubernetes and how to platformize them
• Passion for learning cutting-edge technologies and automating large scale processes
• Software architecture design skills for maintaining High Availability and Fault Tolerance

It's Great if you have:

• Experience with Configuration Management tools (preferably Ansible)
• Experience coding a Full Stack application (preferably with React.js and Go)
• Experience working with Container orchestration (preferably Kubernetes)
• Experience automatic Security tests at Scale
• Experience with Hashicorp Stack of tools (Consul / Vault / Terraform)
• Experience with both SQL/NoSQL databses (PostgreSQL, Elastic, MSSQL)
