Company mission

To reinvent how media is bought, sold, and valued, shaping a more efficient advertising ecosystem.

Role

Who you are

  • Strong interest in Data Engineering, and a desire to learn new technologies, skills, and best practices
  • Familiarity with SQL and database concepts
  • Experience working in Python is a big plus
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Familiarity with git/GitHub and understanding of code review process fundamentals
  • Collaborate with peers across the entire range of development activities that includes implementation of system and component designs, testing, productization, monitoring, and maintenance
  • Support the team and data environment by periodically being on call
  • B.S. or equivalent in Computer Science, Math, or similarly technical field preferred, or equivalent industry experience or completed internship

Desirable

  • Experience building ETL/ELT stream/batch pipelines on big data platforms such as Snowflake, Spark or others
  • Strong problem-solving skills in optimizing solutions for improved performance, scalability and reduced infrastructure and/or support costs
  • An understanding of ad-tech terms and methodologies is a strong plus

What the job involves

  • We’re looking for a talented and ambitious entry-level data engineer to join our team. This engineer will work alongside a diverse group of engineers solving complex data-oriented problems on a daily basis, often in creative ways.
  • As a member of the Measurement Engineering team you will have the opportunity to develop your engineering skills by working on both new product features, as well as enhancements to existing products, through a combination of ETL (Python + SQL), ETL Pipeline (Airflow), and API (Go) development
  • This is a production-facing team, and thus you can expect to be exposed to the full lifecycle of the Advertising Tech products that our team owns - from requirements gathering, through the design process, implementation, testing, validation, launch, and ongoing maintenance
  • These products are the foundation of VideoAmp’s business, and this team is rich with opportunities to deliver high impact and high value as an individual contributor

Our take

For companies looking for a more advanced and streamlined advertising ecosystem, VideoAmp provides tools to measure, transact with and unify audiences that were previously hard to interact with across the disparate traditional systems of TV, streaming and digital media.

In today's world where digital users are keenly aware of their data being used, sold and analyzed, VideoAmp has shrewdly put user privacy at its forefront. Its suite of data and software solutions allows a view of the audience which powers a more effective value exchange for the whole industry. Audiences no longer have to see irrelevant advertising and companies can bring users the content they want to see without compromising privacy.

The company has raised significant funding, further accelerating its leadership position in optimization solutions for the convergent TV ecosystem. This capital has also allowed VideoAmp to acquire Elsy, a media investment optimization platform. Alongside partnerships with media giants Omnicom Media and NBCUniversal, this is testament to VideoAmp’s growing momentum.
