Software Development

Mid-level

Job description

Since our launch in 2013, Confiant has solidified its position as a trailblazer in cybersecurity with our first and only technology that actively blocks bad ads. Our mission? To rid the digital world of malvertising with every bad ad we detect. Our ground-breaking technology makes it easy to identify, block, and replace the intrusive ads that threaten our clients’ reputation, revenue, and resources. We’ve integrated with 100+ major US publishers and ad platforms, and our seasoned security team has developed real-time monitoring systems capable of unearthing even the most sophisticated malvertiser methods.

The Role

We are seeking Full Stack Software Engineers with anywhere from 4 to 10+ years of experience to support and help grow our Core Engineering Team, owning all core systems for the business. This includes high-scale, high-availability systems that power all business functions and several customer-facing Admins and UIs. In this role, you will collaborate with engineers and across teams on a broad range of responsibilities. You will help design and develop scalable solutions and help continuously improve the product, practices, and architecture. You will be a prolific contributor to core projects, experimental work, and technically driven initiatives. When presented with a complex problem, process, or existing system, you must consistently demonstrate the ability to reduce complexity, to get more done with less work.

About Confiant

We believe that engineers solve problems end-to-end. From researching the problem to customer interaction, collaboration across design and product management teams, iterating on team processes, and participating in the on-call rotation, engineers are an integral part of our team and own the end-to-end of shipping amazing products to customers. We fundamentally believe that software works better when engineers own the whole lifecycle of solving problems for our customers. We work every day to reflect these beliefs in our culture and teams. We are a 100% virtual company, and all our team members work from home worldwide. We support optional monthly gatherings in New York City (our original home) and quarterly on-sites in various locations across the world in order to maintain the human connection and trust required to be a high-performing organization.

About The Team

We are a small (but growing!) engineering team that strives for high engineering standards, high cross-team and cross-domain collaboration, and continuous improvement. Our tech stack evolves quickly to manage our growing scale and tackle the challenges we take on as a company. We promote ongoing learning, encourage innovation, and enjoy interpersonal communication. We’re a team built remotely. Our team members are spread around the world with various time zones and various cultures. We love the challenge that comes with remote work as much as we enjoy the benefits. Asynchronous communication is common. A desire to work closely with peers and the drive to make great technology is necessary. We manage large scale ETL systems, APIs, and embedded systems that process10s of millions of transactions a day while writing 10/100s of millions of database records a day, solving large scale ingestion, ETL and response problems for some of the largest players in the AdTech space. As a member of our team, you would be an integral part of supporting these and other similar systems.

  • Broad understanding of AWS/Cloud Infrastructure and deep specific experience with one or more areas of designing, deploying, and managing cloud infrastructure is preferred.
  • Able to work within 5 hours of EST, either 5 hours ahead or 5 hours behind.
