This position can be located in New York, NY; Austin, TX; or Seattle, WA

The individual selected for this position will support the execution of a best in-class reputational paid marketing campaign. The work will challenge you to be resourceful, think big while staying connected to the details, translate data-driven insights into strategic recommendations, and embrace a high degree of change and ambiguity at speed. The scope and scale of what we strive to achieve is immense, but it is also meaningful and energizing.

Key job responsibilities
The GCA Marketing and Insights Software Development Engineer (SDE) will be responsible for building and maintaining data pipelines that power the reporting and optimization of a robust paid marketing program spanning paid digital, social, and addressable channels. Our team is single-mindedly focused on building an industry-leading program that changes minds on important issues relevant to our brand. Success is driven by offline outcomes that are exceptionally difficult to capture and measure. Though randomized-controlled trials that rely on surveys, our team measures when our media is effective through attitudinal change. We do not determine success through traditional direct-response metrics like sales, conversions or signups. Nor do we rely on engagement metrics like clicks, comments, or likes. Instead, the SDE will work with multiple media partners to ingest and store program performance data, and be responsible for facilitating sharing and analysis by stakeholders across the team.

Your focus will be on building and maintaining pipelines that transfer data between our vendors and internal infrastructure, transferring millions of rows of log/exposure data for analysis. You will work with technology partners to customize the specifications of data sharing processes, and ensure those processes are executed with low latency and high standards for data quality and security. You will be involved with the testing and product lifecycle of existing and future AWS products, providing feedback to help shape the development and usage of tools like AWS Clean Room. Doing so will require close cooperation with the data scientists and research analysts on our team, managing all provisioning of AWS resources to do so. And it will require you to develop a long-term vision for data storage and infrastructure for a team with a rapidly expanding scope. Above all, you should be passionate about working with huge data sets and someone who loves to bring datasets together to answer business questions and drive growth.

The person in this role should have expertise with AWS Glue and Athena, and proficiency with data modeling, warehousing and building ETL pipelines. They should also have AWS account management experience defining and administering sets of IAM roles and permissions.
