Staff Software Engineer

Job Summary:

Do you remember seeing trailers for The Devil Wears Prada 2 earlier this summer? What about digital spots for a cruise on the Disney Wish? Or the California Adventure Food and Wine Festival? If you did, it was likely because of the detailed planning and execution of The Walt Disney Company’s Enterprise Media and Marketing team…and if you didn’t – it’s probably because our targeting is that good.

We are looking for a Staff Software Engineer to join the Performance Marketing arm of this media team. We are an integrated, cross-functional team of marketers, software engineers, data scientists, and analysts who help the Media team execute highly data-driven marketing campaigns and tactics.

As a Staff Software Engineer, you will help expand our technology portfolio of innovative campaign planning tools, complex data science workflows, and elegant web applications that blend the art of advertising with the science of data-backed insights.

This role is unique – our team is embedded directly within the Disney marketing organization. We're aligned, mission-driven, and free to move fast and innovate towards our goals. You'll tackle the challenges of executing and optimizing precise paid media strategies, using the latest technologies and tools. If you're excited about this, please get in touch – we'd love to hear from you!

• Lead the design and development of intuitive, high-quality web applications used daily by the Performance Marketing group — owning the experience end to end, from interaction design through to production
• Own and evolve software engineering, data modeling, and architectural standards within the team; create and uphold standards and rigor around software development, testing, deployment, and documentation
• Quickly develop a deep understanding of the business of marketing and create new technical solutions or platforms that can accelerate our broader team's velocity and impact
• Implement full stack applications that facilitate the execution of data-driven media campaigns on third party ad platforms
• Help fellow engineers hurdle roadblocks; create tools that empower scientists and developers to quickly test, iterate, and promote to production
• Implement quality controls, monitoring, and other safeguards to ensure optimizations are accurately and safely applied to in-flight ad campaigns and key business metrics are always presented accurately
