Role
Who you are
- We are hiring a new grad or early-career engineer to ship features that customers use directly. You'll be paired with a senior engineer as your mentor through onboarding and beyond, own pieces of the product, and operate the systems you build
- New grad or up to 1 year of experience
- You must be work-authorized in the United States without the need for current or future employer sponsorship. We are not currently able to engage candidates on OPT
- You've built at least one substantive project — a side project, a class project, an internship deliverable, an open-source contribution. You can talk through the trade-offs you made and what you'd do differently. Bonus if real people used it, and if you built it with AI tools
- Comfortable in at least one of TypeScript, Java, or Python, and willing to dive into the others. We don't expect mastery on day one
- Solid CS fundamentals — algorithms, data structures, object-oriented design. You're curious about what your code does beyond your function — across services, in the database, on the wire
- You want to understand who'll use what you build, and ask "should we build this?" as much as "can we build this?"
- You aim to write clearly about technical things — it's hard, but it's half of engineering, and we'll help you grow into it
What the job involves
- Build customer-facing features that surface insights about ad campaigns — full stack: React and TypeScript frontend, Java/Python backend, database, with testing, monitoring, docs, and operational ownership
- Hands-on exploration of how AI agents fit into our product and our customers' workflows — what unlocks real value, what's noise, what we should ship next
- Participation in our engineering rituals — system design discussions, Code reviews, on-call, the operational habits that keep a team shipping reliably
- Cross-functional work with Product Managers and Designers — you'll be in the room when we decide what to build and why, not just be handed a spec to implement
Our take
Third-party cookies are on the out following Google’s announcement they will no longer be allowed on Chrome. This has dealt a blow to advertisers, who are now looking for alternative ways of targeting potential customers. Quantcast is one of the companies offering a promising alternative, using AI-driven technology to facilitate advertising based on internet traffic.
This has given Quantcast a new and unexpected injection of interest. Moreover, this long run-up has given them time to develop a product with unparalleled data accuracy and a rich raft of features that puts it head-to-head with Google Analytics.
They are also ahead of the pack in adopting a privacy-first approach, including the appointment of new Chief Privacy Officer Min-Jae Lee. With privacy regulations currently disjointed but developing fast, this appointment will help Quantcast stay a leading and trusted organization in the field.
The company was boosted by an acquisition in 2023 from mobile-first tech giant InMobi. Since then, the company has remained focused on the development and launch of new leading AI-driven products. If Quantcast can continue to deliver innovative capabilities, and inspire client confidence with its regulatory compliance, it is well insulated against the sector-wide changes anticipated over the years ahead.
