Backend Software Engineer - User Data Platform

What if, in your next adventure, you were surrounded by people who, like you, look for an unlimited playground to explore, share, and test, would you care to hear more? You've opened the right door! As an R&D team, making sure your ideas are heard and encouraged is what we strive to do!

What You'll Do:

The Internet advertising landscape is evolving fast, including for addressability: numerous frameworks like Google's Privacy Sandbox or Apple's Private Browsing 2.0 make it more challenging to address the target audiences of advertisement campaigns. Criteo is at the forefront of exploring and testing new capabilities on which marketers on the open Internet depend.

• In a team of 4-6 engineers, you will design and build projects in a fast-paced environment.

• Using documentation, open source code and repeatable experiments, you will develop an expertise and establish certainties, and share it within the team on the topics of Web browsers specifications and internals, as well as operating systems network stack internals.

• You will acquire an intuition of the business scale potential, as well of the ease of rollout, and you will put code in production to verify those intuitions through your own data analysis skills or with the help of other Addressability engineers and analysts.

• You will work closely with the Product and Program Management teams to ensure best architectures and products.

Who You Are:

• You have at least 3 years of experience in software development.

• You are energized by new challenges and are keen to quickly adjust your plans to face them.

• Proven expertise, or demonstrated capacity to learn about Web browsers internals (Cookies behavior, IP blocking features, domains classification) and operating systems network stacks internals (TCP/IP features, DNS stack, etc.).

• Relevant experience in Object Oriented Programming (C#, Python, C++, Java).

• Familiar with browser side technologies like JavaScript/TypeScript.

• A proficient level of English (at least B2 intermediate).
