Our team is a global collection of Cannes-winning creatives, ex-Googlers, cutting edge data scientists, and start-up entrepreneurs, and we're poking at the future with curiosity and delight.

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer who’s a product-minded, problem solver at heart, and excited to build the next generation of creative intelligence tools.

The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer who’s excited to build things from the ground up: someone who can think strategically, move fast, and care deeply about quality. You’ll be a key player in taking our product from MVP to scalable platform, helping global brands get real results from their creatives.

This is not a narrowly scoped role. You’ll own critical systems end-to-end, and work closely with the data and product teams to translate creative ideas into production-level software. This role is fully remote and candidates from all geographies are welcome to apply.

Please note application instructions. Resumes submitted only via LinkedIn will not be considered.

You’ll Thrive Here if You:

• Are energized by ambiguity and enjoy bringing structure where it doesn’t yet exist
• Collaborate well with non-technical teammates (creative, product, strategy)
• Want to work directly with early adopters who are leading global brands and see your work in the wild, fast
• Want to shape not just what we build, but how we build it: code,culture, process, and technical direction

What You'll Do

• Improve and scale our Ad Scoring API based on client use cases
• Design & Build scalable data systems and pipelines for creative and performance signals
• Build for scale: robust, scalable systems with great monitoring, alerting, and failure-handling
• Refine our LLM pipelines (OpenAI, Gemini, etc.) for performance and reliability
• Collaborate on creative uses of AI across the stack, from scoring to benchmarks

Technical Enablement & Collaboration

• Work directly with early API clients to support technical onboarding and create feedback loops to integrate into tech and product roadmaps
• Collaborate across teams to make technical work clear and actionable
• Bring curiosity and empathy to every interaction—especially when translating technical concepts for non-technical teammates

What We're Looking For

• 7+ years backend engineering experience, ideally with some experience in fast-paced, high ambiguity environments (start-up or other)
• Deep Python experience and fluency and production experience in GCP (or other major cloud provider)
• Familiarity with LLMs or data-intensive systems at scale, data engineering experience is a plus
• Proven ability to ship scalable, reliable, production-grade systems
• Clear, concise, curious and warm communicator, able to make technical concepts simple and accessible
• Empathetic collaborator, especially when working with non-technical peers, who thrives on feedback, iteration, and shared success

Our Stack:

What We Offer

• Early equity in a fast-growing start-up
• Flexible, remote-first work environment.
• Direct access to founding team, clients, and creative challenges
• A culture that values curiosity, candor, and craftsmanship

Note: Our team is fully remote and distributed within EST-CET timezones. While we are distributed across timezones, workdays are local hours (with occasional/rare exceptions).
