Job Title

QA Management Principal SpecialistBusiness Environment

Within Airline IT Offer Engineering / Pricing Optimisation & Distribution (POD), the Airline Distribution Solutions (ADS) group is driving the solutions for airline to propose, sell and service any products through any kind of retailer network: Travel agencies, NDC aggregators… and soon other airlines with Nevio (the new Altea major version). In short, the main commercial entry door to Altea handling “everything but airline website!”

With two flagship products (NDC – “New Distribution Capability” - the industry game changer, driven by IATA and Group Management), we are giving back to the airline the full control on their sales, all the sales: from individual PNR up to XL complex group booking. This was natively designed in offer-based flow, the core concept of Nevio evolution, the most important airline transformation initiative of the decade. This opens the door to very promising evolutions, especially in the field of offer/price differentiation per customer/channels, that will be the airlines priority for the years to come.

On top of developing those very successful products, we of course have a strong footprint in the Nevio program, to strategically drive the evolution of how airlines will lead the distribution of travel product tomorrow.

About the role

In the back, you will join the shared service team of the ADX train (transversal group of experts, covering NDC and group management airline IT products) to structure and optimize the quality processes across all the train activities (multi product, multi teams).

You are expected to be force of proposal and transform the Quality processes accordingly. For this, you can count on a group of QA engineers distributed in the SCRUM teams (4 today), a system team for technical aspects and the amigos/management group for support and external impediment management.

Your responsibilities:
