What we do: Our Software Engineers are end-to-end owners who have the opportunity to participate in many aspects of designing, building, and delivering data-focused products for our stakeholders.

At The Trade Desk, we believe in building the backend infrastructure of our platform with a focus on quality at scale. Whether we are building parts of our client-facing applications, internal custom solutions for our own team members, or model pipelines for bidding optimizations, we are making sure that we have infrastructure, development, and tools to do it right and efficiently.

Our system performs every day, 24/7, serving global traffic. We build a distributed system in a highly collaborative environment, utilizing a broad range of technologies. Our backend developers work on finding solutions to algorithmic, optimization, and scale challenges in everything we do.

What you will do:

Some of the work that you will be doing to help us deliver on our mission is:

Develop, enhance, and optimize internal tools, processes, and services that power our business teams.

Drive complex changes involving multiple components, both frontend and backend.

Maintain and enhance the reliability and scalability of solutions that align with compliance standards.

Leverage data to analyze opportunities and communicate the impact of your work on operational efficiency.

Build trust and partnerships with stakeholder teams.

Review code from your peers and grow others through example, mentorship, and teaching.

We are a global team with different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. To complement this team, you will welcome ideas that are different from your own and be well-versed in building from common ground to value, seek out, and foster invisible and visible

dimensions of diversity.

Who you are:

Our culture is much deeper than just having fun together (though we do that well, too). We

take pride in our engineers being trust-builders, generous givers, scrappy problem solvers,

and gritty pursuers of excellence. You do not have to meet all the requirements below, but

we believe that people who meet most of them will have a higher likelihood of succeeding in

this role:

You care deeply about improving the experience, tools, and processes of your business team colleagues.

You drive innovative solutions while being sensitive to the current needs and realities of stakeholders.

You can turn technically ambiguous requirements into concrete and thorough designs and execution plans.

You have 7+ years of software development, engineering experience.

You have a Bachelor’s/Master’s level degree in computer science or relevant

engineering-related field or equivalent experience. Not everyone has the same level of

access to opportunities. What is most important to us is what and how you can

contribute, which is why our consideration is not limited by the level of education you have.

You have additional nice-to-have experience in the following areas:

Proficiency with C#, Typescript and React

Experience working in large codebases, organizing and refactoring

Experience with GraphQL and SQL

A variety of technical opportunities is one of the best things about working at The Trade Desk as a software engineer, which is why we do not expect you to know every technology we use when you start.

What we care about is that you can learn quickly and find solutions to complex problems using the optimum tools for the job. What you know is less important than how well you learn and innovate. We are not seeking engineers who know all the answers; we need engineers who can invent answers no one has thought of yet and find answers to the questions yet to be asked.
