Overview
About the role
The environment here is dynamic and fast-paced, with each team facing unique challenges. We have two main types of teams: platform teams and horizontal teams. As part of a platform team, I've worked on building highly scalable applications that can handle the massive traffic we experience. It's crucial to keep the code simple so that it can be easily contributed to by various horizontal teams across the company. On the flip side, being part of a horizontal team offers broad exposure to all of Agoda's systems, providing a comprehensive understanding of our operations and allowing for impactful contributions. One of the most exciting challenges I've faced is working on our price calculation system, which handles 20 million price calculations every second. At this scale, traditional solutions like auto-scaling or retries just don't cut it. We have to explore technology at its deepest level to make the right choices and build architectures that can scale for the future. What excites me most about working at Agoda is our culture of diversity, data-driven decision-making, and technology focus. With nearly 100 nationalities represented in our workforce, the diverse perspectives we bring to the table are unmatched. Everything we do is backed by data, guiding our hypotheses and sparking new ideas. Here, great ideas can come from anyone, regardless of their title. Our focus on technology isn't just about using the latest tools; it's about leveraging innovation to solve complex problems. If you're someone who gets excited about using technology at its deepest level, Agoda is the right place for you.
