Sr. Software Engineer

Job Description:

As a Senior Software Engineer on our Product Team, you will help us support and innovate our platforms that provide best-of-market technology capabilities for our clients’ marketing programs. We firmly believe in the DevOps mentality and are looking for Engineers who not only want to build platforms, but also the tooling and systems that allow us to efficiently test and operate them. You can expect to be hands-on in supporting and debugging our systems, and you will also need to understand how our systems are used to ensure we build what the business needs.  We are distributed globally and operate as a remote-first team.  As with all our team members, you’ll be afforded the opportunity to continuously learn, and to practice sharing that expertise with other team members in a variety of structured and informal teaching forums.

Responsibilities

• Building, delivering and operating our platforms
• Working inside the team and across teams and functions to design and build solutions that best meet our users’ needs and will be easy to operate
• Ensuring our applications are following best practices, leveraging technology and frameworks effectively, and are fitting well into our existing platforms
• Monitoring our applications and systems and owning responses to incidents
• Proactively identifying platform health issues and proposing solutions to improve upon them
• Willingness to participate in an on-call rotation for handling production issues and incident responses

Qualifications

• A minimum of three years of experience in software development; demonstrating successful design, build, rollout and ongoing delivery of business-critical applications and data pipelines starting from raw business requirements
• Successful experience working in an Agile/Scrum environment
• Enterprise experience with Python and JavaScript, our core programming languages
• Professional experience using web application frameworks to build enterprise-class websites, applications, and services that are capable of handling scaled traffic
• Experience using orchestration frameworks (Airflow is ideal, but others like Azure Data Factory are acceptable also)
• Professional experience with JavaScript libraries for building user interfaces or UI components (React is ideal, but others like Vue.js are good also)
• Experience developing the front end of applications including an understanding of CSS and compilation patterns
• Experience with cloud-based infrastructure services for application operations
  • AWS: Lambdas, S3, RDS, IAM, KMS, etc.
  • Azure: App Functions, Blob Storage, Azure SQL, Authentication/AD, etc.
• Knowledge of pragmatic engineering practices like iterative releases, test-driven development, continuous integration, and the use of version control systems (Git/GitHub is our primary system)
• Understanding of secure application development practices.
• Experience enabling operational tooling for applications (build/deployment/configuration, logging, monitoring/alerting)
• Experience documenting engineering designs and logic with industry-standard modeling frameworks
• Experience constructing automated test cases with testing frameworks
• Non-trivial experience with any SQL-based RDBMS (PostgreSQL experience is especially useful)
• Experience with NoSQL data stores (Redis) and asynchronous task processing a plus
• Experience with digital marketing or advertising a plus
• Microservices architecture experience is a plus
