We need our engineers to be versatile, display leadership qualities and be enthusiastic to take on new problems across the full-stack as we continue to push technology forward.
In this role, you will be focused on building and growing the adoption of the next generation of bidding technology and products to drive value to all types of advertisers. This includes the Search and Shopping bidding systems (e.g., ML, optimization systems, new bid strategies and algorithms, GenAI, data systems, and platforms) and launching both advertiser-facing bidding products and backend improvements.
