Senior Full Stack Engineer
About The Position
Digital Turbine is seeking a Senior Full Stack Engineer to join their team. This role involves building product surfaces that connect their marketplace, including campaign management and creation, unified dashboards and reporting, audience and asset tooling, and the APIs that connect demand to supply. The engineer will work across front-end, back-end, and data, contributing to the unified product architecture. The underlying platform requires significant back-end engineering, low-latency optimization, and algorithmic problem-solving to manage high throughput and real-time marketplace dynamics. Digital Turbine operates with small, autonomous pods that own outcomes and roadmaps end-to-end, valuing engineers who can reason about systems, select appropriate tools, and ship reliable software across the stack. This is a hybrid role, and candidates must be local to the posting location.
Requirements
- 8+ years building and shipping production platforms, with a heavy skew toward backend architecture, system design, and code optimization
- Strong algorithmic fundamentals, data structures, and a proven track record of solving complex data-processing or resource optimization problems
- Demonstrated ability to be effective in more than one language/ecosystem (e.g., TypeScript/JavaScript, Java, Kotlin, Python, Go, Scala, or C++) — you optimize for the problem, not a single tool
- Solid command of modern front-end frameworks (e.g., React) and back-end service design, plus relational and/or distributed data stores (MySQL, PostgreSQL, and similar)
- Strong fundamentals in API design, data modeling, testing, and system design
- Comfort operating in a fast-paced, agile, ownership-driven environment with limited hand-holding
Nice To Haves
- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS or GCP), containers, and CI/CD
- Exposure to AdTech, dashboards/BI surfaces, or high-throughput data-driven products
- Experience integrating ML or data services into product workflows
Responsibilities
- Design and build full-stack features — from responsive web front-ends to back-end services and APIs — that power campaign management, reporting, and marketplace optimization
- Choose the right language and tools for each problem (we run a polyglot stack), and keep the front end lightweight by pushing complex computational logic, data modeling, and heavy algorithmic weight into robust, scalable back-end services
- Build and consume well-designed APIs that integrate DT products into a unified architecture rather than isolated silos
- Own your services in production: testing, observability, performance, and on-call, treating quality as a whole-team responsibility
- Collaborate directly with product leads and stakeholders, contributing to scoping, estimation, and technical decisions within your pod
- Mentor teammates and raise engineering standards through code review, automation, and pragmatic architecture
Benefits
- Awards as an employer of choice
