At Expedia Group, we're entering a new era whereAI agents become a primary interface between travellers and brands, reshaping how intent, search, evaluation, and booking happen endtoend. We were early in this space with ourearlyinvestments, and we're extending that foundation into a dedicated marketing capability focused on influencing agents across the full travel funnel.

This role will be part of an AInative team that sits at the intersection ofmarketing, AI, and largescale platforms. We build the systems that make Expedia Group's supply, pricing, and brandlegible, accessible, and preferred by horizontal agents, agent browsers, coworkers, and emerging agent surfaces.

If you're excited todefine how Expedia Group shows up to AI agentsand build the systems that make us the number one AI agent marketer in travel, this role is for you.

In this role, you will:

Set technical vision for agentic marketing and own the outcomes

• Lead technical vision and own the target architecture for the agentic marketing platform - spanning data, services, workflows, experimentation, third-party APIs, and agent-facing surfaces - partnering closely with the agentic search lead, who owns channel strategy and outcomes.

• Translate the agentic search strategy and investment roadmap into a sequenced, opinionated engineering plan with clear tradeoffs and success criteria.

• Partner with product, marketing, data science, SEO/AEO, and architecture leaders to align on priorities, interfaces, and ownership boundaries.

• Work cross functionally with many internal and external teams to deliver outcomes with proven ability to influence without direct authority.

Build agent legibility & access

• Design and ship systems that make EG content, reliably machinereadable and preferred for different agent archetypes (horizontal agents, agentic commerce, browsers, coworkers).

• Extend marketing surfaces beyond traditional web indicesintoagentspecificindices, model training data, live retrieval, and memory infrastructure.

• Create and evolve products designed for specific agent archetypes and crawlers - including agent-specific surfaces, indices, and CLIs.

• Build 0-to-1: stand up the first measurement, agent-observability, data/content, and agent-specific products (CLIs, indices, agents).

• Architect engineering workflows around fleets of autonomous coding agents and sub-agents, treating orchestration of agent labor - not just personal output - as the core leverage model.

• Ensure highquality Agent Access via APIs, MCPs, feeds, and other integration points, including authorization, observability, and SLOs.

• Lead the designofobservabilityandexperimentationtounderstand how agents reason (e.g., chainofthought logging, ranking signals, bias analysis).

Anchor a small and focused engineering squad

• Serve as the technical anchorfor a small, ringfenced squad (STL + engineers), setting engineering standards, reviewing designs, and making crisp architectural calls while working closely with the broader engineering team.

• Coach and mentor engineers across Marketing Tech and adjacent orgs, raising the bar on system design, AI integration, experimentation, and operational excellence.

• Foster anAInative, zerocoordination taxculture that uses automation and agents to amplify output and move quickly, with failure as a design principle.

• Ensure systems areobservable, resilient, secure, and costefficient, with clear SLOs and runbooks.

• Operate with a highly discretionary build budget - pre-approved token consumption, AI vendor adoption, and unconventional experimentation (e.g., dedicated hardware for synthetic agent-log generation) - and spend it to maximize speed.

Minimum qualifications

• 10+ years of hands-on software engineering experience (or 6+ with a Master's)

• Hands-on experience with agentic / AI systems (LLMs, RAG, tools/MCPs, agent orchestration)

• Demonstrated expertise in systems architecture, API design, and integrating third-party products and platforms

• Product sense, ability to reason about what to build and for whom, prioritize on desirability / feasibility / viability, and partner with product as a peer

• Strong proficiency in at least one modern backend language (e.g.,Java, Kotlin, Go, Python, Scala) and comfort working across services, data, and infrastructure

• Strong experience withcloud platforms (AWS preferred)and container orchestration (Kubernetes), plus modern CI/CD and observability tooling

• Solid understanding of data modelling, streaming/batch processing, and experimentation frameworks

• Has architected scalable, high traffic services that translate a product vision into an end to end technical system

• Practical experience with AI developer tools (e.g., Claude, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Codex, Kiro), including evaluating adoption, usage depth, and impact on developer workflows and outcomes.

• Strong crossfunctional collaboration skills: able to partner with marketing, product, data science, architecture, and legal to make highquality tradeoffs

• Experience mentoring senior engineers, building healthy engineering cultures, and influencing without formal authority

Preferred qualifications:

• Experience with marketing technology, ad platforms, or growth/optimization stacks

• Active immersion in the AI ecosystem - relationships with frontier labs, agent platforms, or AI-native startups treated as a meaningful signal of genuine engagement, not just familiarity.

• Familiarity withAI/ML in production-model integration patterns, evaluation, safety guardrails

• Comfort operating inpreplaybook spaceswhere hypotheses will be wrong, experiments will fail, and rapid iteration is required

• Proven ability totranslate ambiguous strategy into executable technical roadmaps, balancing nearterm delivery with longterm architecture
