This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Software Engineer, Marketing Enablement & Technology based in Canada.
This role sits at the intersection of engineering, marketing technology, and data systems, powering the platforms that enable large-scale paid marketing operations. You will design and build backend services, APIs, and data pipelines that support campaign execution, audience targeting, attribution, and performance measurement across multiple digital channels. The work is highly cross-functional, involving close collaboration with marketing, product, and operations teams to shape both technical architecture and business outcomes. You will be responsible for scaling systems that handle high-throughput marketing data while ensuring reliability, efficiency, and cost optimization. This is a hands-on senior engineering role where you will lead complex projects end-to-end and influence technical direction across the team. You will also contribute to mentoring engineers and improving engineering practices in a fast-moving, data-driven environment.
Accountabilities:
- Lead end-to-end delivery of backend services, APIs, and data pipelines supporting paid marketing systems and campaign execution workflows.
- Architect scalable and reliable systems for high-throughput marketing operations with a focus on performance, cost efficiency, and robustness.
- Design and improve data pipelines and ETL workflows supporting campaign tracking, attribution, and audience targeting.
- Develop abstractions and reusable components to reduce system complexity and improve engineering productivity.
- Partner closely with Marketing, Product, and Operations teams to define requirements, influence technical decisions, and align on trade-offs.
- Drive experimentation, rollout strategies, and production deployments across multiple interconnected systems.
- Mentor engineers through code reviews, onboarding support, and technical guidance while improving team processes.
- Implement observability practices including logging, monitoring, and tracing to ensure system reliability and performance.
Requirements:
- 5–8 years of software engineering experience with strong expertise in Python for backend systems and data pipelines.
- Proven ability to lead complex, full lifecycle engineering projects from architecture through production deployment.
- Strong experience with data systems such as SQL, Snowflake, ETL pipelines, and workflow orchestration tools like Airflow or dbt.
- Solid understanding of designing scalable, high-performance distributed systems with strong reliability principles.
- Experience implementing observability frameworks including metrics, logging, and system tracing.
- Strong product thinking with the ability to balance technical constraints and business priorities effectively.
- Excellent communication skills with demonstrated ability to influence stakeholders and mentor engineers.
- Experience working with marketing or advertising platforms (e.g., ad APIs, attribution systems) is a strong asset.
- Familiarity with cloud cost optimization, system reliability practices, and production incident management is preferred.
- Ability to operate in a remote, cross-functional environment within Canada.
Benefits:
- Competitive base salary range of $168,000 – $177,500 CAD.
- Equity grants and annual refresh equity opportunities.
- Flexible remote-first work environment with optional in-person collaboration events.
- Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage.
