As a global travel company powered by passionate people, trusted partnerships, and leading technology, we connect travelers, partners, and advertisers through our consumer brands, B2B network, and travel advertising business.\n\nHere, you'll do meaningful work that helps millions of people discover, book, and experience travel with more ease, confidence, and joy. Our five Behaviors-Traveler First, Think Big, Operate with Excellence, Ownership Mindset, and Succeed Together-help foster a supportive environment where people can grow their careers and have the flexibility, benefits, and support to do their best work. Join us and build for travelers everywhere.\n\nSoftware Development Engineer II, ML Systems — Marketing (Meta/SEM Bidding)\n\nIntroduction to the team\n\nWe create and deliver an aligned, dedicated marketing strategy to fuel each Expedia Group brand's success. Since our travelers interact with us through our brands, we have a brand focus in our marketing, while leveraging the scale and efficiency we've built in functional expertise.\n\nThe Meta/SEM Bidding Programs team builds and operates the high-scale data and machine learning systems that power our bidding programs. We are looking for a Software Development Engineer II who writes clean, reliable, production-grade software and partners closely with machine learning engineers to build the pipelines, services, and platform that bring ML models to life in production.\n\nIn this role, you will \n\nImplement and enhance well-scoped software and data components within complex, business-critical services — from design input through coding, testing, deployment, and production support, with guidance on larger decisions.\nBuild and maintain the data pipelines, services, and infrastructure that support model training, evaluation, and serving, working alongside ML engineers to turn experimental workflows into robust production systems. \nContribute to batch and streaming (online) data and inference workflows, learning how models are trained, served, and monitored at scale.\nInstrument systems and pipelines to capture operational and quality metrics (latency, throughput, errors, and key business signals), and help diagnose and resolve production issues.\nParticipate in code reviews, on-call rotations, and incident response, taking ownership of the reliability and observability of the components you build. \nUse AI as a co-pilot across the software development lifecycle — to clarify requirements, generate and refine code, and strengthen automated tests — and apply generative AI/LLM techniques where they add value. \n\nExperience And Qualifications\n\nStrong problem-solving skills — the ability to deeply understand a problem and reason clearly about the right approach — which we value above any single technology. \n2+ years of relevant professional experience building and shipping production software, ideally including data-intensive or backend services in a cloud or hybrid environment.\nBachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field; or Equivalent related professional experience. \nA strong command of Python, along with experience building APIs and services (FastAPI, REST).\nSolid software engineering fundamentals — data structures, algorithms, testing, and version control. \nExperience building, deploying, and supporting distributed systems and cloud services on AWS, including contributing to monitoring, alerting, and basic performance improvements. \nExperience running containerized and orchestrated workloads with Kubernetes at scale.\nWorking knowledge of Go and Spark (Scala/PySpark) or similar big data frameworks, including basic evaluation, optimization, and debugging of large-scale data processing applications. \nFamiliarity with a range of databases (e.g., Hive, Iceberg, Postgres) and workflow orchestration tools (e.g., Airflow, Flyte, Argo). \nExposure to MLOps practices (CI/CD for ML, experiment tracking, model registry, deployment and monitoring tooling) and to machine learning concepts or ML pipelines — deep ML expertise is not required, but curiosity and a willingness to grow into data/ML engineering are important. \nHands-on experience using AI-assisted engineering tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, or equivalent) in day-to-day work, consistent with Expedia Group's expectation that engineers actively build and apply AI skills.\n\nAccommodation requests\n\nExpedia Group is committed to providing an inclusive and accessible recruiting experience. If you need an accommodation or adjustment due to a disability during the application or recruiting process, please submit a request at https://expedia.service-now.com/askegid=job_accommodation.\n\nAbout Expedia Group\n\nExpedia Group includes three flagship consumer brands - Expedia, Hotels.com, and Vrbo - along with a leading B2B travel business and travel advertising offerings. Across our brands and business, we help travelers explore the world with confidence and ease.\n\nImportant notice\n\nEmployment opportunities and job offers at Expedia Group will always come from Expedia Group's Talent Acquisition and hiring teams.
