About the role
- Pair program with teammates for the majority of your coding time.
- Take part in daily standups, weekly planning sessions, and frequent retros to continuously improve how we work.
- Collaborate openly with colleagues — we value honest discussion and make sure everyone’s voice is heard.
- Contribute to a team that owns its strategy end-to-end, deciding together what actions to take to succeed.
- Practice trunk-based development and continuous delivery, shipping small, incremental changes to production.
Requirements
- XP Engineering Practices: Comfortable with pair programming most of the day, and see test-driven development (TDD) as integral to building reliable systems. You use tests to drive design, embrace refactoring as part of everyday coding, and value small, incremental code and test cycles.
- Backend and Full-Stack Experience: Strong backend experience in TypeScript with additional frontend skills for admin UIs. Solid skills across the full stack, from client-side to server-side development.
- Cloud-Native Experience: Practical experience building deployment pipelines and continuous delivery on cloud platforms. Familiarity with Google Cloud Platform, Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform.
- Data Systems and Analytics: Experience with PostgreSQL, MySQL, and BigQuery. Passion for working with data to power real-time analytics, A/B testing, and monitoring with tools like DataDog.
- Systems Thinking: Experience designing and building distributed, high-availability, high-throughput systems while maintaining modularity, functionality, maintainability, and data consistency. Solid understanding of HTTP and how the internet works.
- Code Quality: You write obvious, concise code that rarely needs comments and always leave the codebase better than you found it.
- Product Mindset and Collaboration: Customer-centric approach, working closely with product managers to ensure technical solutions deliver value. You contribute ideas and strategy, not just code, and thrive in collaborative environments that drive squad momentum.
- Values Alignment: Commitment to continuous learning, autonomy, psychological safety, and developing your craft.
- Bonus Points: Experience with online advertising or ad tech products.
- Familiarity with the Google Ads API.
- gRPC experience (we maintain a TypeScript Google Ads API library).
- You have an entrepreneurial streak, with examples of how you identified opportunities and delivered them.
- Experience in cross-functional teams practising XP (Extreme Programming) and Kanban techniques.
- Familiarity with multiple programming languages and the ability to bring insights and practices across ecosystems.
