Are you ready to love your job?

The adventure begins right here, with you, at SITA.

As Senior Implementation Engineer, you will lead the end-to-end technical implementation of integrated airport and airline solutions across applications, networks, servers, infrastructure, security, and cloud environments. Your primary accountability is hands-on implementation, supported by functional airport knowledge, customer coordination, project-delivery awareness, and post-go-live support through transition.

You will work closely with Delivery, Product, Support, project teams, and customers to ensure solutions meet agreed technical, operational, and business requirements. You will act as the on-site technical and functional focal point when required, helping customers adopt the solution successfully and ensuring issues, risks, and dependencies are managed and escalated appropriately. Career Framework note: The external posting title is Senior Implementation Engineer. The title upon hiring will be Senior Infrastructure Engineer, in line with SITA Career Framework.
