Samsung Ads is an advanced advertising technology company in rapid growth that focuses on enabling brands to connect with Samsung TV audiences as they are exposed to digital media by using the industry’s most comprehensive data to build the world’s smartest advertising platform. Being part of an international company such as Samsung and doing business around the world means that we get to work on the most challenging projects with stakeholders and teams located around the globe.
The Engineering Platform (EP) team is a team that builds, operates, and offers products that benefit multiple engineering teams within the Samsung Ads project. These are typically foundational services and include runtime environments, scheduling, observability, monitoring, and more.
As an embedded Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) you’ll be part of a software development team and act as a subject matter expert on the challenges of usability, performance, reliability, scalability and observability.
The ideal candidate has deep knowledge and a strong interest in process automation, observability, software-defined infrastructure, and approaches it from the perspective of a software engineer. Challenges of globally distributed services, deciding what and when state should be shared, and simulating failure scenarios should drive you.
You will work with some incredibly talented and passionate developers with a solid technical background to bring products and services to a market with unique technical challenges.
