Introduction to the Layla Team

Layla is an AI-native travel-planning and booking company, now part of Expedia Group’s Product organization. Through a conversational travel assistant, Layla helps travelers move from inspiration to a complete, bookable itinerary — flights, hotels, activities, and the day-by-day detail — in minutes. As part of Expedia Group, the team combines Layla’s planning and personalization capabilities with Expedia Group’s global supply, first-party traveler insights, marketplace scale, and booking technology.

The team is small and senior by design and operates with startup pace: you own a surface, ship it, and see the impact on real travelers within weeks — with decisions driven by data and AI tooling used in practice every day.

As a Senior AI / ML Data Engineer, you will build the data foundations that power Layla’s AI-native travel experiences — the reliable pipelines, high-quality datasets, and experimentation and evaluation support that let the team ship and improve AI/ML systems in production with confidence.

In this role, you will:

• Design, build, and operate reliable, scalable data pipelines that power Layla’s AI-native trip-planning and booking experiences across Layla and Bellboy.

• Own data quality, reliability, and observability across critical datasets, establishing well-documented, trustworthy data models that other teams can confidently extend.

• Build and support the data foundations for experimentation and model evaluation, enabling honest, timely readouts that inform product and AI/ML decisions.

• Enable the production use of AI/ML systems — supporting feature and data availability, evaluation datasets, and monitoring — while applying AI/ML concepts responsibly.

• Partner closely with Product, Analytics, and ML/engineering teams to turn ambiguous questions into dependable data and self-serve answers.

• Advocate for engineering excellence in data — testing, documentation, and reusable patterns — and mentor other engineers on best practices.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, or a related technical field; or equivalent related professional experience.

• 8+ years of relevant professional experience.

• Strong data engineering expertise, including advanced SQL and data modeling, and experience designing and operating production data pipelines.

• Proficiency with Python for data engineering work.

• Demonstrated ability to own data quality, reliability, and observability for critical datasets in production.

• Familiarity with supporting AI/ML systems in production — such as data/feature pipelines, evaluation datasets, or experimentation — and applying AI/ML concepts to real-world products responsibly.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with a modern data stack (for example, a transformation framework such as dbt, a cloud warehouse such as BigQuery or Snowflake, and BI tools such as Looker or Metabase).

• Experience building and maintaining experimentation frameworks and product analytics for a consumer product with real paid acquisition.

• Experience with attribution modeling, including an understanding of its limitations.

• Experience supporting production AI/ML or generative-AI systems (feature pipelines, evaluation, or monitoring), with attention to safety and responsible use.

• Experience using AI-assisted development tools (for example, Claude or similar) to improve productivity, quality, and delivery speed.

• Experience in travel, marketplace, or e-commerce domains, or building a data/analytics function from scratch.
