Sabre is a technology company that powers the global travel industry. By leveraging next-generation technology, we create global technology solutions that take on the biggest opportunities and solve the most complex challenges in travel. Positioned at the center of the travel, we shape the future by offering innovative advancements that pave the way for a more connected and seamless ecosystem as we power mobile apps, online travel sites, airline and hotel reservation networks, travel agent terminals, and scores of other solutions. Simply put, we connect people with moments that matter. NOTE: TPG Capital, a global alternative asset management firm, recently acquired Hospitality Solutions. Over the coming months, Sabre is working with TPG to formally separate the Hospitality Solutions business from Sabre. It is important to understand that while you will be employed by a Sabre legal entity, your role will be to support the Hospitality Solutions business, which is now owned by TPG. Hospitality Solutions , formerly part of Sabre Holdings, is a global leader at the forefront of hospitality technology powering over 40,000 properties across 174 countries. Celebrated for our innovative and customer-centric approach, we deliver integrated platforms for distribution, reservations, retailing, and guest experience to both renowned hotel brands and independent properties worldwide. We're seeking a Strategic technology leader to design, operate, and evolve Hospitality Solutions’ platform and cloud runtime. This leader owns cloud architecture, SRE/hosting, platform shared services (API gateway, secrets, CI/CD runners, feature flags), observability, FinOps, vendor/MSP oversight, and production readiness to ensure secure, resilient, and cost‑efficient delivery for product and business systems through the TSA cutover and into steady state.

  • Observability & telemetry — Implement centralized logging, metrics, tracing and alerting; maintain health/capacity dashboards and automated alerting thresholds.
  • Platform operations & automation — Drive IaC, automated provisioning, deployment pipelines, blue/green/canary patterns, automated rollbacks and runbook automation.

  • Production readiness & cutover support — Own production readiness gates, run cutover rehearsals, rollback plans, and validate NFRs (performance, scalability, security) for Day‑S streams.
  • Security & compliance enablement — Implement platform controls (patching, backup/DR, IAM integration) and supply audit evidence in collaboration with CISO and Legal.
  • Team leadership & capability build — Hire, mentor and lead cloud, SRE, platform engineering and operations teams; define career paths and scale the org for 24x7 support.
