Principal Engineer - Revenue AccountingBusiness environment

Amadeus Revenue Accounting enables airlines to track all passenger sales revenues in real-time, facilitating strategic decision-making, and maximizing their productivity by automating many revenue accounting processes.

It is part of the Amadeus Financial Suite which represents a significant potential for diversification and company growth.

The functional solution must be built in close relationship with our customers while proposing major innovations compared to existing products, defining the next-generation of airline financial systems.

Revenue Accounting is integrated to Altéa, which implies working with other divisions and acquiring deep functional knowledge on other areas (Altéa DCS, Ticketing, SSP, etc.).

American Airline (AA - Sabre PSS), the biggest airline in the word (in PBs) recently selected our Amadeus Revenue Accounting solution, with a cutover planned in January 2026.

We are currently building a Standalone Revenue Accounting for them, adapted to the north american standards.

Why joining us ?

In the Revenue Accounting department you will join a friendly team and will work in a rich environment with diverse opportunities to grow either on functional side (acquisition, accounting, interline billing, reporting,..) and/or technical side (going from classical C++ backend to Java SKube microservices and event-based architecture using Kafka).

We have many technical challenges to address: We have to manage the largest Oracle Database in Amadeus and we provide powerful Big Data solutions using MongoDB and Azure Databricks. Performances improvement is always a hot topic especially with American Airlines coming, along with our migration to the Cloud, streamlining our DevOps activities, and building our new Order Accounting solution in scope of Nevio.
