Description
Company and role overview
Snowfall’s main focus is in the travel industry: airlines, ground and sea transportation, and onboard Wi-Fi connectivity and entertainment. Snowfall operates in a B2B2C environment, delivering value to its customers via a building-block model. We combine our modular technology in bespoke solutions, allowing us to more quickly address opportunities and meet customer needs.

We combine this with a keen commercial focus. We understand our customers’ customer – the traveller – which helps us play an advisory role as well as providing great technology. We create value by working hand-in-hand with our customers in true partnerships, co-locating teams and sharing the commercial benefits and risks.

Snowfall is a culture-driven organisation. The environment is high-growth, high-energy, high-intensity and non-silo’d. It is dynamic with a get-it-done attitude across the organisation. The culture is also one of accountability – we all commit to our deliverables, and then we deliver. And we get a lot of flexibility and freedom in return.

To thrive and succeed in this environment, we believe you must be; a self-motivated and hands-on individual who is willing to take on tasks outside your functional area and be comfortable with change. One day is usually not exactly the same as another resulting, so being flexible and nimble will be a huge benefit. If you recognize yourself in the description above, we are convinced you’ll love being part of our team.

We are looking for an experienced engineer who understands software development life cycle and has a solid grasp of different automation tools for developing continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines.
