Company mission
Magnite's mission is to help the world’s leading advertisement agencies and brands reach millions of consumers efficiently and safely through its omnichannel sell-side advertisement platform.
Role
Who you are
- 6+ years of experience
- Very strong systems-language-level expertise, preferably: Rust but C++, C, or Go experience is all valuable
- A strong understanding of RAII, object lifetimes, memory management, and other low-level concepts, even when using high-level abstractions over those concepts
- Strong foundations with data structures and algorithms, able to identify better ways to solve problems
- The ability to be a self-starter and motivated, who prefers quick proofs-of-concept and experiments
- Strong coding practices - the gap bringing code from a PoC into an enterprise solution shouldn't be so wide for someone with this experience
What the job involves
- Implement low latency high-performance solutions, mostly using Rust but willing to work in whatever language is required
- Quickly get familiarized with Rust (if required) to in turn help mentor and support other engineers who might struggle with systems-language-level concepts
- Have a large say in the design and implementation of relatively new services, and brainstorm how to bring better solutions to more teams/projects across Magnite
- Build proofs-of-concept to demonstrate potential performance or design improvements, and adapt them to enterprise-grade solutions

Our take
Due to the rise in mobile and smart devices in recent years, the way in which advertisement publishers must format their ads is changing. A key example of this is TV, advertisements that present immediate calls to action within a Connected TV user interface, but publishing ads in such a format is currently inaccessible to most publishers.
Magnite provides a sell-side omnichannel advertisement platform for publishers, focused on facilitating the selling of advertising on all formats including CTV, mobile, desktop, and audio. In addition to facilitating the buying and selling of omnichannel ads, the company also provides a real-time ad performance dashboard, data protection and compliance tools, and insights into buying and selling patterns.
Whilst other omnichannel advertisement platforms present significant competition to the company, Magnite stands out by providing an end-to-end marketplace for the buying, selling, management, and analysis of ads. Furthermore, by focussing its efforts on cutting-edge formats such as CTV, the company shows great potential to futureproof itself within the advertisement industry.
