Backend Engineer, Real-Time Bidding -- brisan oglas

Opis delovnega mesta

We're looking for a versatile backend engineer to help us grow our real-time bidding (RTB) system and supporting services. Our real time bidding infrastructure handles 1,5M+ bid requests every second, and it needs to decide which ad to show for every one of them in real time. This generates terabytes of data every day that needs to be processed quickly and efficiently.

What is Zemanta?
At Zemanta we're building the most advanced native advertising platform in the world. Marketing agencies love our dashboard - they use it to run native advertising campaigns that reach millions of people every month. Offering them the tools they need to be successful is our main priority, so we are expanding our engineering team to take our platform to the next level.

In July 2017 Zemanta joined Outbrain (the world's largest content recommendation company) on their mission to help anybody discover great content.

What is your team’s mission?
- Your team’s mission is to connect Zemanta's advertisers with programmatic supply. This includes a wide range of responsibilities:
- Making sure we respond quickly to up to 1.5 million requests/second with the best ads possible.
- Keeping hundreds of thousands of advertising campaigns in sync across multiple systems.
- Building new features that advertisers can leverage and optimizing existing ones.
- Building internal development tools.
- Working with terabytes of data to extract meaningful insights from it.
- Working with databases with billions of entries and hundreds of thousands qps.
- Providing means to business and product teams for accessing the relevant data needed for their work.

What will be your personal responsibilities?
- Collaborate with software engineers and data scientists to research, develop, and deploy services at large scale.
- Leverage our rich data sources and large-scale computing resources to build systems that process tera-bytes of data to improve outcomes for the advertisers.
- Perform software research, development, evaluation, and optimization.
- You’ll align and coordinate with product managers, architects, and other engineers to solve complex problems and cross-team challenges.
- You’ll actively contribute in technical decision making ranging from algorithm design to system and data architecture.
- You’ll share your expertise with the team and help guide junior engineers to take on bigger challenges and more responsibility.
- You'll work with exciting technology: Go, AWS, GCP, Kafka, Aerospike, PostgreSQL, Redis, Hadoop, BigQuery, Prometheus, Grafana.
- You'll get a lot of freedom - you'll be encouraged to work on any part of the codebase to get the job done, and you'll deploy all the code yourself (don't worry, our tools make this super easy). This will allow you to move fast and deliver value with nothing slowing you down.
