Software Engineer II, Ads Delivery

About this role

Are you an engineer who enjoys building backend systems that scale to handle billions of requests? Do you have experience working with AWS and enjoy building APIs, ETL data pipelines, and distributed systems that deliver reliable, real-time results? Are you excited by the idea of shipping code that impacts thousands of publisher sites and hundreds of millions of users?

Raptive is hiring a Software Engineer II to help evolve and scale our Ad Delivery Platform, which powers how ad code and data are delivered to pages across our network.

What you’ll be doing:

• Build and maintain backend services and APIs that power ad delivery and configuration, primarily using TypeScript and AWS serverless technologies.
• Develop and support ETL data pipelines that process and transform data from sources such as S3 and make it available for real-time use (e.g., via DynamoDB), including working with Airflow or similar orchestration tools.
• Implement changes that span multiple parts of the system, including application code, data pipelines, and infrastructure configuration.
• Work with AWS services such as Lambda, API Gateway, CloudFront, DynamoDB, S3, and IAM to deliver reliable, high-performance systems.
• Contribute to CI/CD workflows and infrastructure-as-code, helping ensure safe and consistent deployments of ad code and supporting systems.
• Debug and resolve production issues by tracing behavior across services, data pipelines, and infrastructure, with attention to performance, reliability, and data integrity.
• Collaborate closely with product, SRE, and other engineering teams to clarify requirements, coordinate work, and deliver changes with low operational risk.
• Participate in monitoring and observability efforts (e.g., dashboards, alerts, runbooks) to maintain service health and quickly identify issues.
• Suggest and implement incremental improvements to code quality, deployment workflows, and system reliability within the areas you work on.
