Tasks

About the role:
As a Senior Engineer (m/f/d) in the Retail Media Ad Solutions area, you will play a critical role in designing and building high-performance, scalable AdTech solutions that power our growing Retail Media ecosystem. You'll work across the stack, from backend services to customer-facing interfaces, with a strong focus on clean architecture, data performance, and user-centric development. Working closely with your cross-functional team, you’ll help turn complex business needs into robust, end-to-end technical solutions that deliver measurable impact.

• Data & Messaging Systems: Integrate and optimize high-throughput data systems using MongoDB, Redis, and Algolia for real-time ad delivery and insights. Work with BullMQ and RabbitMQ to handle reliable, distributed message queuing and background processing.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Product, Design, and Analytics teams to deliver end-to-end Retail Media features. Participate in sprint planning, technical reviews, and solution discovery to ensure engineering is aligned with business goals.
