Are you an ambitious Fullstack Engineer ready to take on new challenges and grow exceptionally in your career? Join our team Rocket as a Senior Software Engineer and be at the forefront of transforming our Creative production tooling!

About the Team:

Smartly proudly houses Rocket, the team responsible for building out our Creative Template Editor, as well as the Media Library. Our customers rely on our creative production tooling to generate and manage tens of millions of advertising creatives, and your future team will be placed in the center of all of this effort.

We are agnostic about technology and always aim to choose the best tools for the job. On the backend, our favored stack is Node.js in combination with TypeScript usually coupled with PostgreSQL and/or RabbitMQ. On the front-end side of things, React and Redux with TypeScript. Our service runs on Node.js orchestrated by Kubernetes. We also integrate with some BI tools (Snowflake, Redash, Grafana) to analyze the performance and usage of our services. We use Webpack and GitHub Actions for our build and deployment pipeline.

We will focus heavily on bringing innovations to the Creative Group while reacting to customer demand and feedback. Our templating solutions are in heavy use: during peak times, we've rendered 16 billion (16 000 000 000) images on hundreds of servers monthly.
