As a Senior Backend Engineer on the Exchange Engine team at our company, you will be a driving force behind the core systems of our massive mobile advertising platform. You will tackle complex architectural challenges where every millisecond counts, building real-time, highly concurrent systems that process millions of requests per minute. In this position, your impact extends beyond feature implementation; you will take charge of major initiatives, architect core systems, and raise the bar for engineering excellence across the entire team.
Key Responsibilities
Architectural Design & Execution: Lead the end-to-end design, development, and delivery of complex, scalable, and highly available backend services for our real-time ad exchange. Architect systems with a focus on long-term maintainability, ensuring that large-scale changes and migrations are predictable and low-risk.
Performance Optimization: Profile, tune, and optimize system performance to ensure ultra-low latency and high throughput under massive concurrent loads.
Technical Mentorship: Act as a technical multiplier by mentoring junior and mid-level engineers, conducting rigorous code reviews, shaping technical standards, and promoting software engineering best practices.
Cross-Functional Leadership: Collaborate directly with Product Managers, Data Scientists, and other engineering squads to translate complex business requirements into robust technical solutions and to understand the revenue journey, ensuring technical decisions directly support market competitiveness and platform growth.
Production Excellence: Own the lifecycle of your services in production. Implement advanced monitoring, alerting, and observability to troubleshoot and resolve deep-system production incidents.
Infrastructure Collaboration: Work closely with DevOps to optimize our deployment pipelines and cloud infrastructure (Kubernetes, GCP).
AI-Driven Engineering: Leverage modern AI coding assistants and agentic tools to accelerate development velocity, automate routine tasks, and free up cognitive load for complex architectural challenges.

We're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to own core infrastructure that powers our platform - from the pipelines that move and process data at scale, to the systems that keep our engineering org shipping fast and reliably. This is a technical leadership role: you'll set architecture direction, raise the bar on engineering practices, and mentor other engineers, while staying deeply hands-on.
You'll operate in an organization that expects AI-native ways of working. Using tools like Claude, Cursor, Hermes or LangGraphor isn't a bonus here - it's the baseline for how we build, and we expect you to help the rest of the team level up on it too.
What Youll be Doing:
Own core backend infrastructure - design and build scalable, reliable Node.js/TypeScript/Python/Go services that other teams and systems depend on.
Build and scale data pipelines - architect the infrastructure that processes and moves large volumes of data reliably, efficiently, and at scale.
Elevate test & validation infrastructure - build the automation, tooling, and CI/CD systems that let engineering ship fast without breaking things, and that make quality and reliability measurable.
Set technical direction - make architecture decisions with company-wide impact, drive design reviews, and establish engineering standards and best practices.
Mentor and multiply - level up other engineers technically, and help shape a fast, high-ownership engineering culture as the team grows.
Lead with AI-native workflows - use AI-assisted development tools daily to move faster without sacrificing architectural quality, and champion their adoption across the team.
