What You’ll Be Part Of:
Ad Optimization builds the pipelines and integrations that deliver iSpot's TV and streaming measurement (impressions, conversions, and attribution) to partners such as DSPs, CTV platforms, and ad servers, so advertisers can optimize campaigns in flight. As an SDE III data engineer on the team, you will build and own the Spark and Snowflake pipelines behind these partner optimization feeds, from design through production operation.

Responsibilities:

Build, tune, and maintain large-scale batch Spark pipelines that turn measurement data into partner-ready optimization feeds.
Build and optimize Snowflake processing, including SQL transformations, scheduled and incremental pipelines, and data modeling.
Tune pipeline performance and cost across Spark and Snowflake.
Design data models, table layouts, and partitioning across S3, lakehouse tables, and Snowflake.
Build partner data feeds, including file and API deliveries, identity matching, privacy-sensitive data handling, and delivery SLAs.
Build data-quality checks, reconciliation, telemetry, and alerting, and handle late-arriving data and backfills.
Write and review technical designs and test plans, and lead small-to-medium projects from ambiguous requirements to production.
Own releases and deployments to team standards, including staged rollouts and rollback.
Participate in the team's on-call rotation. You will respond to alerts and incidents, lead root-cause analysis, and keep runbooks current.
Mentor other engineers through code review, pairing, and design feedback.
Use AI-assisted tools for design, development, testing, and incident work, and verify what they produce.
