Technical Optimisation Engineer
CurrentWorking with a number of large travel agents across Europe to optimise their search results for a mixture of channels: online, offline and B2B. This not only means looking at one aspect of the results, for example speed, but also the quality of results, such as the number of cheap or convenient options.I also develop internal applications to empower the consultants so that they can analyse the results so that they can deliver a better customer experience. Applications have been developed mostly in .NET, in collaboration with colleagues in other parts of the globe.Not only do I support the consultants by developing tools, but also through offering expertise on websites, especially when they are working with Online Travel Agencies. Through working with consultants and the customers, we gain great insights into what can grow the business for the customer.There is a weekly engineer call, that I chair, where we get to share the engineers in other office locations globally share their knowledge with each other.Running workshops with customers either by phone, webex, or even face to face is a large part of what I do. These workshops are very hands on, and often we need to troubleshoot with the customer and discuss solutions with customers.
