Information about the position

Job description, responsibilities and duties

Everything happening at Expedia Group has identity and access at its core. We are looking for individuals that are excited to both simplify and better secure the identity and access which is at the core of the systems within Expedia Group. Working both independently and as part of a larger, global team, you will utilize your critical thinking skills, technical expertise and effective communication to creatively contribute to the development of software that scales to our global customer base.
Software development teams are made up of several Developers with varied experience levels so team members learn from each other. Each team takes on challenges and solves problems in their space, and ships solutions to customers as frequently as possible, often multiple times a day.
This is the ideal position for developers who are ready to take the next step in their career and grow beyond their comfort zone! In this role, you will ship quality code and products, learn from and mentor other team members, champion best practices, and collaborate with business and technical teams to solve challenging problems and eliminate roadblocks.

Who you are:

• Most important - hunger to learn! We want people who are curious and eager to develop new skills
• 3+ years of experience writing web applications and/or services
• Experience in Java is a plus, along with the ability to learn new languages and frameworks
• Proficiency in any of these are a plus: AWS, Micro services, Docker, NodeJS, Mongo, and/or Redis
• Passion for exploring new and ambiguous areas at a fast pace.

What you will do:

We don't need you to be equally strong in all areas, but it is important that you be comfortable with your ability to do all these things, and if you are exceptionally good at some of them we look forward to seeing you at your best.

• Write code — lots of it. Much of our code is in Java, but we use all kinds of languages and frameworks and we welcome programmers of all backgrounds
• Work in an agile team and look for ways to continuously improve through asking for and providing feedback
• Analyze and resolve production support issues in collaboration with Operations team and other developers
• Ensure that all code that your team produces is rigorously tested in an automated fashion (we encourage TDD/BDD)
• Work closely with product owners to define roadmaps and backlogs
• Effectively communicate and collaborate across locations and time zones.
• The projects you work on at Expedia will improve the experience of millions of travelers worldwide and help connect people through the power of travel.
