Senior Software Development Engineer

Job Summary

The Air Filters Ranking team at Expedia Group sits at the heart of how travelers discover and select flights. We are a backend-focused, data-driven team that builds the intelligence behind flight search results, ensuring that millions of customers around the world can find the right itinerary quickly, confidently, and at scale.

What We Build

Our team owns and evolves the Flights Central Tool, as well as the filters and ranking systems that shape what travelers see on the flight search results page.

Flights Central Tool

We provide a central control plane for flight experiences: configuration, feature flags, experiments, and insights that let product, analytics, and operations teams fine-tune how flight offers are selected and presented. This tool is the hub where business strategy meets technical execution for air.

Ranking Offer Selection

We integrate ML models at multiple layers of the stack to score, blend, and rank flight offers in real time. Our goal is to surface the most relevant options, balancing price, convenience, reliability, flexibility, and traveler preferences, so that customers see compelling choices at the very top of the results.

Filters Intent Understanding

We design and power flight filters (e.g., stops, times, airlines, fare attributes, flexibility) so that travelers can narrow hundreds of itineraries down to a small, manageable set. We are increasingly intent-aware, using behavior and context to order and apply filters in ways that speed up decision-making.
