Cloud-Native System Development: Assist in building, testing, and maintaining advertising data services on AWS, gaining exposure to technologies like EKS, MSK, and S3.

Large-Scale Data Engineering: Participate in the development and optimization of real-time and batch processing pipelines using Flink, Spark, and HBase to handle massive ad-log flows.

System Reliability & Testing: Write robust unit and integration tests. Assist in monitoring system stability and troubleshooting basic performance bottlenecks under the guidance of senior engineers.

Feature Implementation: Collaborate with the team to implement features that support mission-critical, 24/7 ad-tech operations with high traffic and low latency.

Data Compliance: Support the team in developing technical solutions that enforce strict data isolation and regional compliance for global users.

Technical Requirements

Education: Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.

Backend Foundation: Solid programming skills in Java, with a strong understanding of data structures, algorithms, and object-oriented design. Basic knowledge of multithreading and JVM is a plus.

Big Data Interest: Academic or personal project experience with, or a strong desire to learn, big data frameworks (e.g., Flink, Spark, HBase).

Cloud/Infrastructure: Basic understanding of cloud computing concepts. Familiarity with Linux environments, Git, and containerization (Docker/Kubernetes) is highly preferred.

Problem Solving: Strong analytical skills with the ability to debug code and solve complex technical problems effectively.

Industry Interest: A strong interest in the AdTech industry (e.g., Attribution, Tracking, or RTB systems).

Drive & Passion: A passion for exploring new technologies and a proactive, self-driven approach to learning.
