Job Summary: As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll work on our Real-Time Bidding Platform that serves roughly one billion bid requests a day, around 700k requests per second at peak, with a 100ms limit on the amount of time it takes to process a request. Most of our applications are written in Java using the Spring Boot framework. We use Sumo, Data Dog, New Relic, and PagerDuty to monitor and alert on our platform. We own, and are responsible for, our infrastructure, including everything from the public network all the way down to our compute and sharded relational database schema design. All of our infrastructure is in AWS, and we manage it using Terraform. We use CI/CD best practices to develop, test, and deploy our applications. We use a wide variety of AWS services, ranging from running containers in the Elastic Container Service, to Elastic Map Reduce, Athena, Glue, and other No SQL Big Data services to process a large volume of data, work with products and architects to learn, and apply those learnings to future product and technical development. Our engineering organization supports addressing technical debt. In addition to working with product owners to prioritize and fix defects as necessary, we reserve one sprint a quarter to work on things that are bugging us, whether that's cleaning up noisy alerts, automating manual processes, or just revisiting code if we think there's a better way to do it, using the tools we have available to set goals prior to making changes, and measuring our success.
