We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer with a passion for building business-critical products and features that can process 7 million transactions per second at a latency of <200 milliseconds.
You will be working on our real-time ad buying platform for our Connected TV (CTV) solution. This team is critical to the success of our business and you will be focused on designing, architecting, and building new critical features that are low-latency, scalable, and fault-tolerant (the team hasn’t had an outage since 2008!).
As a Senior Software Engineer, you can expect 50% of your role to be focused on architecture and design and 50% focused on hands-on coding as well as mentoring and leading junior members of the team. You will be given responsibility and autonomy to bring next-generation and cutting-edge features to production. Innovation is at the core of everything we do, not just in our products but also in the tools we use. If you believe there is a better way to solve a problem in a different language, we will back you to make it happen.
