For a decade, Engine has built the proprietary technology and supply behind modern business travel, serving over 40,000 customers and nearly 2 million travelers, along with leading travel and AI companies that build on Engine's infrastructure. One system powers business travel, group travel, human agents, and AI agents. That work has earned Engine recognition as TravelTech's Reservation Platform of the Year (2026), a spot on Inc.'s Power Partners list (2026), and one of Built In's Best Places to Work (2020–2026). We're looking for bold, ambitious people to help redefine how businesses manage and experience travel. Working here, you can expect exponential growth, an ambitious pace, full ownership, and high-caliber colleagues who push you to do the best work of your career. Every hire raises the bar. Come outpace the ordinary and build the future of travel with us. ### The Role Engine is redefining what business travel looks like and the Senior Director, Client Operations is accountable for redefining what best-in-class travel support looks like alongside it. This role owns the full member support operation across Lodging, Flights, Cars, and Engine X, leads the Customer Advocacy Team, and architects the Elevate program that sets the standard for how Engine's highest-value customers experience the platform. This isn't a role for someone who manages from a dashboard. We're looking for a player/coach; a leader who is as comfortable pulling up a case, jumping on a call with a stranded traveler, or diving into EVA containment data as they are running a QBR with their leadership team or presenting to the executive team. You set the standard by modeling it, not just by defining it. At Engine, we don't benchmark against the industry, we make the industry benchmark against us. If your instinct is to hit 90% CSAT because that's what the industry calls good, this isn't the right seat. If your instinct is to ask why we're not at 95% and build the plan to get there, keep reading. ### What You'll Own Member Support: Lodging, Flights, Cars & Engine X You are the operational and strategic owner of Engine's core travel and spend support function.
