Job Description

This is not a remote role. You must be in the local area or open to relocation.

About the Role & Team  

Do you remember seeing ads for Lilo and Stitch earlier this summer? What about Fantastic 4 or Ironheart on Disney+ in the past few weeks? If you did, it was likely because of the detailed planning and execution of The Walt Disney Studios Media and Marketing team…and if you didn’t – it’s probably because our targeting is that good

 

We are looking for a Sr 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 for theatrical, streaming, and brand campaigns. 

 

As a Sr Software Engineer, you help build out our technology portfolio: innovative campaign planning tools, complex data science workflows, and elegant web applications that blend the art of advertising at Disney with the science of our data-backed insights.

 

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

  • Write code, author design documents, and contribute to the development of a suite of tools used by the Performance Marketing group to execute on theatrical, streaming, and brand campaigns 

  • Drive software engineering and architectural standards within the team; uphold standards and rigor around software development, testing, deployment, and documentation 

  • Implement front-end data visualizations and process workflows that facilitate the execution of data-driven media campaigns on third party ad platforms 

  • Partner with data scientists to take workflows to production and integrate them with our broader technology portfolio 

  • Collaborate with the broader team of media/marketing experts to rapidly iterate from prototypes to high-quality, production pipelines  

  • 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  

 

Required Qualifications & Skills  

  Knowledge of ad platforms including DMPs, Google Ads, Facebook/Instagram, Twitter, Innovid, LiveRamp and DSPs (Google DV360, Trade Desk, Verizon Media Group) is a big plus

  • Bachelor’s and/or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Software, Electrical or Electronics Engineering, or comparable field of study, and/or equivalent work experience  

  • 5+ years of related work experience  - Software Engineering

  • Proven experience developing full-stack applications and services, as well as popular frameworks (e.g., FastAPI, Spring Boot).   

  • Familiarity or experience with front-end web development and user experience design  

  • Understanding of cloud compute (AWS, GCM, etc) and modern dev ops practices; experience crafting and owning CI/CD pipelines for applications  

  • Ability to dive deep into any technical component as well as understand and drive the overall systems architecture.  

  • Proven ability to manage multiple projects effectively that meet deadlines within a fast-paced environment  

  • Experience working and leading cross-functional teams to translate business needs into reality-based requirements  

 

Preferred Qualifications      

 

  • Experience working effectively with data science teams  

  • Experience with data-rich environments and a fluency with Python, Spark, and SQL
