Yes, I was part of the massive Expedia Group lay-off last month. I’m finding out that a lot of the managers I reported to are becoming individual contributors again as they wind up the department.

I’m a DevOps/Linux Systems Engineer/SRE with 20 years in industry, about 5 as a developer and the rest as operations. Looking for anything remote, or possibly in Austin, TX. I have worked remote before. Besides AWS and Linux, I’ve got experience implementing incident management practices, agile/scrum for infrastructure teams, and have worked remote for over a quarter of my career.




Did you work at Homeaway?


Yes, but renamed to Vrbo and then my team was merged into Expedia Group but not re-tasked. The last six months before I was cut was an incredibly confusing time because we couldn’t even figure out how we were supposed to sign emails.


Interesting. Sorry to hear about the layoff, hope you land on your feet!
