We’re looking for a Backend Software Engineer to join our team and help shape the future of contextual advertising as we continue to expand globally.

Who We Are

At Seedtag our goal is to lead the change in the advertising industry because we believe that effective advertising should not be at odds with users’ privacy. By combining Natural Language Processing and Computer Vision, our proprietary, Machine Learning-based technology provides a human-like understanding of the content of the web that finds the best context for each ad while providing unparalleled risk-mitigation capabilities that protect advertisers from showing their ads on pages that could be damaging for their brand. All of this, without relying on cookies or any other tracking mechanisms. Every day, our teams develop new services that reach over 200 million users worldwide with fast response times to ensure that we deliver the best user experience. We’re fully committed to the DevOps culture, where we provide the platform that our Software Developers and Data Scientists use to manage over 100 different microservices, pushing dozens of changes to production every day. All of this is built on top of Kubernetes in Google Cloud Platform and Amazon Web Services. If you are interested in joining one of the fastest-growing scale-ups in Europe and working on massive scalability challenges, this is the place for you.

Your Challenge

You will be responsible for building and improving services which will have a direct impact on our client’s advertising KPIs and operational efficiency.
You will work on end-to-end projects, taking solutions from concept to production, and focusing on creating scalable, efficient, and impactful solutions.
As a member of our engineering team, you will develop new projects mainly on the backend side, but sometimes, you’ll support particular frontend needs. You’ll be in charge of the CI/CD, dimensioning production instances and scaling.
You’ll provide an analytical mindset, being able to go to our data lake in order to validate your own hypothesis and try to get your own conclusions to discuss afterwards with the team.
Collaborating closely with our cross-functional teams, your work will be aligned with business goals and drive the practical application of your solutions.

Our core values

Outcome over output

Our core tech values reflect our commitment to delivering exceptional results, fostering a culture of continuous learning, and always putting the customer's needs first. We believe that success comes from focusing on the outcomes rather than just the output. Our tech team aims to solve problems that make a meaningful difference, and we measure our success by the impact we have on the customer.

Failure is allowed, learning is a must

We also recognise that failure is an inevitable part of the innovation process. Our team understands that setbacks are opportunities to learn and grow. We believe in testing early and often, and we continuously iterate and improve until we arrive at the best solution.

We are all scouts.

Another core value we hold is that we are all scouts. We believe in leaving things better than we found them. This means we take ownership of our work and strive to improve the systems and processes we touch. We encourage our team members to be proactive in identifying areas for improvement, and we value those who take the initiative to implement positive changes. Our goal is to leave a lasting, positive impact on our projects and our team.

We are data-driven

Lastly, our team is data-driven. We believe that making informed decisions based on data is crucial to our success. Our team uses data to guide our decision-making process and to identify opportunities for improvement. We are committed to using data to continuously monitor and optimize our models and processes to ensure that we are delivering the best possible outcome for our customers.

Tech Stack

We have to support 120k requests per second running with ML models in production answering within 10 milliseconds! We have this running in production with Python and GoLang microservices using datalakes, GCS, Redis, Kinesis or Kafka. All this is constantly deployed in GCP using Kubernetes and other kinds of production stacks. The current stack outputs 20 TB of daily data having them ready to use for analytics and more with easy and low latency access.In the rest of the company, we also develop in Typescript for Nodejs and Scala making use of technologies like Kafka, Druid and MongoDB all over the Google Cloud Platform.

What You’ll Need to Succeed

You bring at least 5 years of experience into backend software engineering, from the conceptualization of the problem to the deployment in production and validation that works.
You have collaborated on some front-end projects even if it’s not your strongest skill.
You are a DevOps-oriented engineer who is responsible for the CI/CD of the services you build, you understand how to do the sizing of production deployment and how to troubleshoot if something is not working as expected.
You deeply understand the problem you are trying to solve. You measure the outcome of the development you do.
You have worked in related disciplines which can include Data engineering pipelines, infrastructure provisioning or deployment of ML models in production.
