This team operates at Series A speed inside that larger organization — high ownership, fast iteration, and AI-native engineering culture. ABOUT THE TEAM The Customer Experience (CX) Product team owns the entire post-booking journey — from the moment a trip is booked through changes, disruptions, refunds, and customer support interactions. The team builds and operates the systems that enable fast, high-quality support at scale, including customer self-serve experiences within the app and partner-integrated flows, internal agent platforms for efficient human resolution, and a flagship agentic AI platform used both internally and offered as a B2B solution for global travel partners.
