The AppNexus web services team develops and maintains the RESTful API that allows our clients to programmatically manage their online advertisement business and receive billing and performance analytics from our platform. API services are consumed both internally and externally. We enable our UI engineers to build feature-rich web application / back office / auditing tools without making a single database connection, while enabling our clients to build their custom UI and perform real time integrations with other platforms. 
 
The API controls and centralizes read / write access to the business objects encapsulated in our MySQL database: enforcing rate limits, validating user inputs, and structuring data for our ad serving applications to interpret and execute.  Our system must be flexible and powerful enough to handle all of those tasks with very high peak usage – executing over 9,000 HTTP requests per minute! The API also exposes terabytes of ad serving, analytics, and performance data, equipping our clients to better analyze and optimize their campaigns.
 
Consider some of the problems we tackle every day:
 
• Overcoming scale challenges: How do we maintain speed, availability, and reliability in the face of our growing client base and exponentially growing number of objects and relationships in our system?
• Core developments:
• Leveraging mature open source technologies (such as Sphinx, Memcached, Solr, and primarily the LAMP stack) to increase uptime and reduce latency.
• Building our own API framework that is light, powerful, and specifically optimized for our tasks.
• Removing potentially asynchronous tasks from the critical path to keep response times low.
• Implementing our own distributed caching system, to speed up responses while maintaining consistent data between our data centers.
• Agile development: Our product is broken into portfolio teams who manage our client feature requests using SCRUM techniques. The API team’s challenge is managing operations across portfolio teams while consistently building an API that is fast and reliable.
 
The most exciting part about working at AppNexus is the enormous potential for personal and professional growth. We operate in a short release cycle (multiple times per month) and still maintain 99.96% uptime. You will have code running in production within a couple of weeks, and after just a few months, you can own a component of a system. We simply have too many challenges to not trust developers with enormous responsibility. Join our team, and you have the opportunity to redefine an industry and your career.
 
Who we are looking for:
1. You want to be part of an organization with minimal bureaucracy, open communication, and clear communication path between your team and the CEO and CTO.
2. You love to develop you have a thorough understanding of web development with any of the following languages: PHP, Java, Python, Ruby.
3. You enjoy solving complicated problems in novel ways.
4. You are an independent thinker who is self-motivated and thrives in a fast-paced work environment.
 
What's in it for you:
1. Industry changing development – build relevant solutions to some of today’s most interesting technical challenges
2. Significant impact from your very first day thanks to our rapidly growing scale and agile engineering teams.
3. A comfortable and relaxed office environment surrounded by passionate, driven colleagues.
4. Regular access to industry events – AppNexus hosts many technical speakers and meet-ups, complete with free beer and pizza.
5. And of course, competitive compensation, relocation stipend and all visa costs covered (if needed).
6. And finally, because our CEO is an industry recognized developer in his own right, your contributions to the company are recognized and rewarded.
 
 
The Other Perks:
• Great Technology: Any computer of your choosing. Most of our team develop using retina displayed MacBook Pros, with multiple monitors for additional screen real estate.
• Free Food: Every office has fully stocked kitchens including healthy and tasty snacks, drinks, coffee and bagels, each morning. Family Lunch Fridays – AppNexus provides free lunch for the company every Friday.
• Career Development: Annual budget for conferences and continuing education of your choosing
• An Active Development Community: Participate in company sponsored Hackathons, Innovation days and events
• Speak, publish, and patent: Your groundbreaking work will help enhance the engineering brand at an emerging powerhouse technology company

Our data provides no shortage of fuel for innovation and we are currently looking for an engineer that will be excited by our search environment and the challenges that are inherent to such a unique data set.

Responsibilities:

• Work on the scalability, resilience, and efficiency of backend components, particularly search
• Debug runtime problems and understand the interactions between systems
• Build systems, libraries, and frameworks within, around, and on top of search
• Help build and manage a large, rapidly growing, heavily used search service, and contribute your work to the open source community
• Code using Java, JVM scripting languages, and PHP
• Work in a team-oriented environment 

You will be successful in this role if you:

• Have a BS or MS in Computer Science
• Have 5+ years of Java engineering experience
• Have experience with production search services
• Have an interest in distributed systems
• Have interest in learning Hadoop
• Have previous success in a performance-critical environment

What’s Next

If you're interested in joining the team at Etsy, please send a cover letter along with your resume telling us what inspires you about Etsy and why you think you are perfect for the team (resumes without a cover letter will not be considered).

If you contribute to an open source project, write a blog, or practice another craft besides software engineering, that means something to us, we’d love to hear about it.

Web Engineer | Alexa Internet, Inc. | CA - Oakland

Web Engineer | Alexa Internet, Inc. | CA - Oakland

Web Engineer

Alexa Internet is looking for a top-notch front-end engineer to help us overhaul our website, www.alexa.com. We serve 9 million unique visitors each month with web-wide analytics data and tools for small business owners. Over the coming year we're going to make our website more highly-cacheable, low-latency, and mobile-friendly. One likely scenario is that we will develop front-end JSON APIs to Alexa's analytics data and deliver them to a client-side framework such as AngularJS.
There are all kinds of interesting engineering challenges ahead. What's the best combination of technologies to optimize performance — CloudFront caching, local caching, lazy data retrieval? Can we move towards a SPA model and still be search engine-friendly? How can we deliver a data-rich UI to mobile clients? You'll be right in the thick of these meaty questions.
You'll join the Alexa Front-End and Middleware Engineering (FAME) team, using Scrum and delivering software in two-week iterations. Although your primary responsibilities will be in the PHP and Javascript layers, you may also find yourself working on UI or middleware. It all depends on your interests and skills; we prefer people who are versatile. Our UI will be migrating to a responsive framework, probably Zurb Foundation or Bootstrap. Our middleware (data API, payment gateways, etc.) is based on the Play Framework in Java and Scala.

Required skills:

• BS in Computer Science or equivalent, 4+ years work experience.
• PHP
• Javascript + AngularJS or other Javascript MVC
• AJAX / JSON
• Linux (our deployment platform)
• bash
• Perforce (or another centralized source control system)

Preferred:

• Zend Framework v1
• Zurb Foundation or Bootstrap
• Java and/or Scala
• MacOS (our development platform)

Full Stack Software Engineer | Etsy, Inc. | Brooklyn, NY, United States

Full Stack Software Engineer  | Etsy, Inc. | Brooklyn, NY, United States

Full Stack Software Engineer

Brooklyn, NY, United States

Apply Now

The Full Stack Software Engineer collaborates with a team to build engaging and effective shopping experiences for Etsy’s community of buyers.

Etsy is seeking a Full Stack Software Engineer to join our Software Engineering team. Our marketplace has an abundance of one-of-a-kind items from independent artists, designers and vintage collectors from around the world. Our challenge? Make it easier for buyers to find these remarkable goods, and in turn, support our sellers’ independent businesses. Do you have the code-writing capabilities to take on this task? And to succeed with gusto?

About the Team

The technical staff at Etsy believes that code is craft, good software and systems designs are works of art, and that the work we do is part of larger creative culture represented by the hundreds of thousands of inspired artists and designers who make Etsy such a wondrous marketplace. We believe that small, empowered, self-motivated teams can do big things. We also believe in the right tool for the job, not language-as-religion. Our current systems run PHP, Java, Python, Ruby, Solr/Lucene, Postgres, MySQL, and more. Check out our Engineering blog: http://codeascraft.etsy.com/

About the Job

You'll be helping us build new and awesome experiences for people shopping on Etsy. We're looking for full-stack engineers - you'll be dealing with the MySQL, Memcache, PHP, and front-end stuff (HTML/CSS/JS). The teams working on each feature are pretty small (a few engineers, a designer, and a product manager), so there's a lot of meaningful collaboration.

Because we're making user-facing features, we believe strongly in collecting and analyzing numerical data to help guide our decisions. To that end, you'll be able to use our in-house analytics tools to gather information and gain insights. You'll also be able to use Etsy's Continuous Deployment architecture to push code to production whenever you please (and you'll probably push on your first day here).

About You

You’re an engineer who can turn ideas into extremely fast and reliable code that other people – or you, six months into the future – will find easy to comprehend and modify. You believe in the connective power of Etsy’s peer-to-peer marketplace, and know how to create the code that will make it stronger.

You will be successful in this role if you:

• Enjoy helping others around you grow as developers and be successful 

• Have excellent written and verbal communication skills 

• Can be autonomous and self-driven 

• Get inspired on a daily basis, think of new ideas and like to share them with others 

• Like music 

• Take pleasure in making things, momentum, chaos, vibrancy, spontaneity, debate and silence

What’s Next

If you're interested in joining the team, please send us your resume. You won’t be surprised to hear, though, that we won’t consider it without a cover letter. Let us know how you fit the bill for each of our requirements above. Etsy is a place that values individuality and variety, so use your judgment and write to us in your own voice. If you have a presence on the web that we can easily access (Twitter, Facebook, rap sheet), contribute to an open source project, write a blog, or practice another craft besides designing beautiful, functional websites, that means something to us, we’d love to hear about it.

Re-imagine Work

From our HQ in Brooklyn, NY, to our offices around the world, we make it possible for people everywhere to buy and sell unique goods. Community is in Etsy’s DNA, and being connected, a code we live by.
At Etsy, you can do the work you love, be yourself, and take fun seriously. Your teammates become teachers, sharing their skills at Etsy School. Competitive benefits, balanced working hours, and eco-friendly offices are engineered for human beings (not human doings). And everyone’s invited to break bread and make new friends at Eatsy, our locally-sourced communal lunch.
Etsy is the marketplace we make together.
