  • Shape how millions of users see products by blending ML model outputs with business logic (like campaign boosts or sponsored items)
  • Build and own our high-throughput ranking engine ("Spotsetter") to ensure fast, deterministic, and fair product sorting
  • Design reliable batch write pipelines that stream data from BigQuery straight into high-performance relational stores like Postgres and MySQL
  • Develop low-latency serving APIs with Fastify and Node.js/TypeScript
  • Work closely with data engineers, product managers, and commercial teams to make data-driven ranking decisions
  • Architectural freedom: collaborate with our Tech Lead, bring in your own ideas, and keep our codebase clean
  • You love digging into ranking problems, taking deep ownership of a product, and seeing your changes move real business metrics
  • 5+ years of experience with backend systems (Node.js/TypeScript preferred, but we welcome fast learners from Java, Go, or Kotlin)
  • Strong hands-on SQL knowledge (Postgres/MySQL schema design, query optimization, and batch operations beyond basic ORMs)
  • Good algorithmic intuition for sorted data, deduplication, latency trade-offs, and constraint logic
  • You're excited to bridge backend engineering and ML by serving model scores or ranking data in live systems
  • Clear communication skills in English and a pragmatic, solution-oriented mindset

Nice to Have

  • Experience with job queues (BullMQ, Redis) or batch processing pipelines
  • Exposure to cloud tooling (AWS Step Functions, CDK, GCP/BigQuery)
  • Background in e-commerce, sponsored products, or ad-tech systems
  • Curiosity about learning-to-rank algorithms
