About the role
Job Title
Senior Software Engineer | AI-First Engineering (all genders)Ever wondered what it takes to make millions of travel experiences work seamlessly?
Near Aachen, Amadeus Leisure IT builds and operates the technology behind search, booking and travel management across international leisure travel markets.
Join us as a Senior Software Engineer with an AI-first mindset. At Amadeus, we are human-led and AI-powered: you steer, decide and take responsibility, while AI accelerates your work. It's about better engineering: AI is part of your toolkit throughout the engineering lifecycle, while you keep the bar high on architecture, security, testing, maintainability and operational reliability. Java is part of our current environment, but it doesn’t define the role. What counts is your engineering judgement, your ability to choose the right tool and adapt as technologies evolve.
What you’ll shape
- Drive solutions from idea to production, ensuring they are engineered to perform and built to last.
- Put AI to work where it creates real engineering value, while keeping human judgement and accountability at the center.
- Influence technical direction by challenging approaches and bringing your perspective to architectural decisions.
Expertise to make an impact
- You have a strong senior-level track record of designing, building and operating reliable, scalable production systems.
- You apply engineering judgement to AI-generated solutions and know how to take an AI prototype to a robust production-ready solution.
- You are confident working across modern APIs and distributed architectures, including event-driven systems, asynchronous processing and microservices; experience with GraphQL is valuable.
- You have hands-on experience with containerization and CI/CD; familiarity with cloud-native engineering and platforms such as Kubernetes or OpenShift is a plus.
- You are highly proficient in at least one major programming language, ideally Java with Spring Boot. We value engineering depth and adaptability over expertise in one specific technology.
- You combine strong communication and collaboration skills with the ability to share AI engineering practices and help others adopt an AI-first way of working.
Why now. Why Amadeus.
- Stay close to where engineering is going: AI is reshaping our profession fast. At this pace of change, the environment around you, the people you work with and the opportunities to experiment shape how you evolve as an engineer.
- Dedicated time to experiment and innovate: Use development days throughout the year to explore emerging technologies, test new approaches or deepen the expertise that matters to you.
- Grow with an AI engineering community: Exchange ideas, use cases and lessons learned with engineers navigating the same transformation.
- Choose your growth path: Deepen your technical expertise, expand your architectural influence or build your expertise in AI-first engineering. Your growth does not have to follow one predefined path.
- Engineer globally, where scale matters: Build travel technology for international markets where reliability and engineering quality count.
And the fundamentals?
Hybrid working and workation, bonus and share match plan, a job ticket, continuous learning and real team connection, from regular gatherings to team camping in the Netherlands, all backed by an established global company.
