Software Engineer - Advertising Capabilities

ProdDev: ProdDev Global Engineering Stockholm Software Engineer - Ad Capabilities About Acast Since 2014, Acast has been building the world’s most valuable podcast marketplace, creating the technology that connects podcast creators, advertisers, and listeners. Its marketplace spans more than 140,000 podcasts, 3,300 advertisers, and one billion quarterly listens. Crucially, those listens are monetized wherever they happen—across any podcast app or listening platform. About The Role In just a few seconds, Acast’s Dynamic Ad Insertion platform dynamically sources, selects, and splices ads into uniquely personalised streams for millions of listens every day, all while optimising towards the best possible return for the creator, advertiser, and of course the listener themselves. As a Software Engineer in Delivery, you’ll be working in the team that owns Acast’s audience indexing and contextual targeting capabilities to ensure the right ad gets served to the right audience, on the right podcast. You’ll also work on Ad Manager, our internal campaign booking system, where sales and operations teams plan campaigns, configure targeting, and manage flights and creatives end to end. That means building and improving the tools that turn audience and content signals into bookable inventory — from how campaigns are set up and targeted, to how they stay in sync with delivery and reporting downstream. Your daily responsibilities are centered around development of our ad manager and targeting capabilities. You will collaborate with a team of data and software engineers, an Engineering Manager and a Product Manager, to plan and execute on innovative solutions that have a significant impact on our business. What You'll Do You will work in an experienced team that is distributed across Europe. In collaboration with your team you will maintain and develop targeting capabilities, while also communicating and collaborating with peer teams and both internal and external stakeholders. While the campaign booking system is the team's primary focus, you’ll also be working on our audience indexing and targeting capabilities . The team owns critical services as part of Acast’s Ad Delivery pipeline , and you will be expected to join the rotation providing 24 hour on-call support for this. Who You Are We believe you are a software engineer who’s early in their career, with a focus on front-end development but have an interest for the full stack. You enjoy solving problems and seek to understand the business needs around the things you build and support. You’re able to work alone or as a pair, and believe direct collaboration is the best way to solve problems. You believe AI is here to accelerate us and use it in your day-to-day work. You are creatively solving problems using Node, TypeScript and React, or similar. You are comfortable with or willing to learn AWS and understand the value of healthy CI/CD pipelines.
