The adventure begins right here, with you, at SITA.
ABOUT THE ROLE & TEAMAs 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. WHAT YOU WILL DO Implement, configure, integrate, test, and support end-to-end airport and airline technology solutions across applications, networks, servers, infrastructure, security, virtualization, and cloud environments. Translate business, operational, and technical requirements into practical implementation plans and ensure integration with interacting systems, applications, and services. Apply strong airport-domain knowledge to understand operational workflows, advise customers on effective product use, and recommend improvements that support operational efficiency. Own technical implementation activities across the project lifecycle, including requirements clarification, installation, configuration, testing, go-live readiness, deployment, and transition to support. Coordinate customer go-live and provide post-implementation support until transition is complete, resolving defects, omissions, and operational issues identified after deployment. Act as the on-site technical and functional focal point for customers and represent the project-delivery team when a dedicated project manager is not present on site. Collaborate with Delivery, Product, Support, project managers, and customer stakeholders to track actions, dependencies, risks, and issues, escalating material impacts to project deliverables. Monitor solution performance and customer usage after implementation, identify technical or operational improvement opportunities, and connect relevant needs with the appropriate SITA teams. Maintain accurate technical documentation, implementation records, configurations, and handover materials in line with SITA standards, policies, and processes. Contribute to continuous improvement by applying lessons learned, improving implementation methods, and sharing technical and functional knowledge with colleagues and customers. Qualifications WHO YOU ARE You have at least five years of relevant experience implementing and supporting infrastructure platforms, application deployments, integrated systems, or modules across multiple full project lifecycles. You bring mandatory experience implementing technology solutions in airport environments and understand airport and airline operations, workflows, and system interdependencies. You have strong hands-on knowledge across networking, Microsoft infrastructure, servers, applications, virtualization, cloud infrastructure, and security technologies, including exposure to Cisco and Palo Alto environments. You can troubleshoot complex technical and integration issues, identify root causes, and coordinate effective resolution across multiple teams. You understand implementation governance, risk and issue management, change control, documentation, testing, go-live, and transition-to-support activities. You have practical project-delivery awareness and can coordinate customer-facing activities when an on-site project manager is unavailable, without this being a dedicated project management role. You are customer-focused and able to explain technical and functional matters clearly, build credibility, and maintain effective working relationships with internal and external stakeholders. You manage complexity, take accountability, plan and prioritize effectively, and continuously look for ways to improve work processes. You hold a bachelor’s degree or equivalent qualification, preferably in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related discipline. The role follows normal working hours and is expected to be split approximately 50% between the SITA office and customer sites. Travel of up to 25% may be required for projects outside Doha, primarily within the MEA region. Managing complexity and solving problems across interconnected applications and infrastructure. Ensuring accountability and following through on commitments. Optimizing work processes and applying continuous-improvement thinking. Planning and aligning activities across customers, Delivery, Product, and Support. Taking action with confidence while remaining composed in demanding implementation and go-live situations. Learning quickly, sharing knowledge, and adapting to changing project needs. NICE-TO-HAVE A recognized project management certification or practical exposure to formal project-management methods. Relevant technical certifications such as CCNA, Cisco, Microsoft, cloud, or security credentials. WHAT WE OFFER
