About Traveltek

For over two decades, Traveltek has been powering the booking platforms behind travel agents, tour operators, cruise lines and wholesalers around the world. We’re widely recognised as one of the world’s leading travel technology providers - and we’re still growing.

•       Owning and improving our CI/CD pipelines across AWS CodePipeline, CodeDeploy, CodeBuild, Jenkins and GitHub

•       Automating anything that’s done more than twice

•       Improving monitoring, alerting and incident response so we spot problems before our customers do

•       Working with third-party providers and internal teams to keep the platform running smoothly

•       Mentoring other engineers and sharing knowledge across the Systems team

•       Proven experience building environments with Terraform

•       A track record of automation using scripting languages such as Python, Bash or Perl

•       Proven expertise in Linux server management - Ubuntu preferred

•       MySQL/MariaDB experience

Bonus points: experience working with PCI DSS and GDPR requirements.
