Hi! I’m George 👋 Head of Platform & Infrastructure here at WeTravel.
I joined WeTravel to help build a secure, reliable, and scalable IT environment as we grow. Our team’s mission is to empower every WeTravel employee with the tools and support they need to work efficiently, securely, and without friction - no matter where they are in the world.
Think of the most incredible adventures imaginable: trekking to Machu Picchu, cycling through Tuscany, or going on a safari in Kenya. For years, the small businesses and local experts who run these trips have been stuck using messy spreadsheets, countless emails, and complicated payment methods.
WeTravel is changing that. We build the tools that empower any entrepreneur to launch and grow their own travel business. Our platform makes it simple for organizers to create beautiful trip proposals, securely process payments, and manage their customers, so they can focus on what they do best: creating amazing experiences.
This is one of the last great frontiers of travel to come online, and as the category leader, we are at the forefront of this change. Last year alone, our platform was trusted by 8,000 organizers to lead over a million travelers on adventures in 150+ countries. Now, we're on an exciting journey to grow from powering $1B to $10B in travel experiences per year.
We believe that every trip, when done right, can be a force for good - and we're building the engine to make more of that possible.
Own infrastructure vulnerability management. One central register across infrastructure dependencies, containers, images, and cloud infrastructure. Risk-based SLAs, tracking to closure, exception handling, and reporting we can put in front of engineering leadership and an enterprise customer's security team — operating within the Product Security severity and risk framework. One register, one scoring model.
Prioritize infrastructure remediation using contextual risk signals such as KEV, EPSS, exposure, asset criticality, and relevant compensating controls, within the common severity model..
Automate infrastructure-security workflows: scanner integrations, finding pipelines, normalization, ticket routing, and reporting. If a number has to be assembled by hand every quarter, it's not done. Contribute to shared security finding workflows where appropriate.
Build our detection foundation. Security logging coverage and retention across production, cloud, and identity systems; select and run the managed detection and response partner; make sure the telemetry they need exists and survives. You cannot detect what you do not record, and closing that gap is yours.
Lead infrastructure and cloud security posture management with our platform team: cloud account guardrails, hardening baselines, CSPM findings triage, internet-facing surface inventory, image and container security.
Coordinate security incident response: incident classification runbooks, tabletop exercises, and post-incident corrective actions.. Partner with Product Security on incidents involving product-security vulnerabilities or customer-facing product risk.
Partner with product, platform engineering and IT on remediation. Findings arrive triaged, deduplicated, and explained. A queue engineers don't trust is worse than no queue.
Supply the technical evidence behind our SOC 2, PCI DSS, and customer due diligence obligations — access reviews, scan results, patch compliance. You won't own the questionnaires or the audit relationship.
Collaborate with Product & Platform teams, and support customer-facing security discussions with accurate technical evidence and context.
