Job

Company

Role

Who you are

Very strong systems-language-level expertise, preferably Rust and Go but C++ or C are also acceptable
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 in data structures and algorithms
Proven ability to analyze designs and code to identify optimizations and alternatives to better solve problems
Energy: self-starters and motivated, preferring quick proofs-of-concept and experiments
Strong coding practices - bringing code from a PoC into an enterprise solution
Strong communication and collaboration skills
An ability to work in a geographically distributed team

What the job involves

Implement low latency high-performance solutions, mostly using Rust or Go but willing to work in whatever language is required
Support solutions across the development lifecycle
Work in a collaborative style across multiple teams to deliver high-quality results quickly
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.
