At Engine, we’re transforming business travel into something personalized, rewarding, and simple. For too long, managing travel and spend has been overwhelming and fragmented — we’re here to change that. We believe the future of travel should be seamless and powered by technology that delights customers at every step. That’s why we’re building a platform that brings together corporate travel, a powerful charge card, and modern spend management in one place.
To make this vision real, we’re looking for exceptional, mission-driven people to help redefine how businesses manage and experience travel.
More than 20,000 companies already rely on Engine to support over 1 million travelers and billions in annual bookings each year. Cash flow positive with rapid growth, we pair exclusive Engine-only rates, industry-leading rewards, and intelligent automation to help businesses save money while delivering world-class personalization and convenience.
Backed by Telescope Partners, Blackstone, and Permira, Engine has been recognized as one of the fastest-growing travel and fintech platforms in North America, with honors including the Deloitte Fast 500 and Built In’s Best Places to Work.
As Staff Engineer on the Control Plane / Core team, you're one of a handful of people who set the technical direction for how every engineering team at Engine builds and ships. You won't be embedded in a single vertical — you're working on the substrate underneath all of them.
You'll also be a force multiplier for the embedded engineers: the patterns, modules, and primitives you build are what they hand to feature teams. When something embedded engineers keep solving locally needs to become a paved road, that's your work.
