Who we are:

The Trade Desk is a global technology company with a mission to create a better, more open internet for everyone through principled, intelligent advertising. Handling over 1 trillion queries per day, our platform operates at an unprecedented scale. We have also built something even stronger and more valuable: an award-winning culture based on trust, ownership, empathy, and collaboration.

We value the unique experiences and perspectives that each person brings to The Trade Desk, and we are committed to fostering inclusive spaces where everyone can bring their authentic selves to work every day.

Do you have a passion for solving hard problems at scale? Are you eager to join a dynamic, globally- connected team where your contributions will make a meaningful difference in building a better media ecosystem? Come and see why Fortune magazine consistently ranks The Trade Desk among the best small- to medium-sized workplaces globally.

What we do:

At The Trade Desk, we believe in building the platform with a focus on quality at scale. This means whether we are building parts of our client-facing applications, distributed backend services, or model pipelines for bidding optimizations, we are making sure that we have infrastructure, development, and tools to do it right and efficiently.

Our system performs all day, every day serving global traffic. We built a distributed system in a highly collaborative environment, utilizing a broad range of technologies. Our back-end developers work on finding solutions to algorithmic, optimization and scale challenges in everything we do.

We are a global team with different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives. To complement this team, you will welcome ideas that are different from your own and be well-versed in building from common ground to value, seek out, and foster invisible and visible dimensions of diversity.

What you will do:

Our Senior Engineers are end-to-end owners who have the opportunity to participate in many aspects of designing, building, and delivering data-focused products for our stakeholders. 

Some of the work that you will be doing to help us deliver on our mission is:

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to gather experimentation requirements and develop scalable solutions iteratively
  • Drive complex changes involving multiple components and complex systems run by other software engineers
  • We are a global team with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives.

Who you are:

We take pride in our engineers being trust-builders, generous givers, scrappy problem solvers, and gritty pursuers of excellence.

  • You have 7+ years of software development engineering experience.

  • You have a Bachelor’s/Master’s level degree in computer science or relevant
    engineering-related field or equivalent experience. Not everyone has the same level of access to opportunities. What is most important to us is what and how you can contribute, which is why our consideration is not limited by the level of education you
  • You have experience in leading and completing projects with a high degree of technical ambiguity.

You have additional nice-to-have experience that is not required in the following areas:
