WHO WE ARE:
The Trade Desk is leading the way to the future of marketing by
changing how advertising is bought and sold. Working with the largest
brands and agencies around the world, our technology platform helps
consumers discover products they want by enabling advertisers to target
and reach them on the right channels at the right time.
Employees join The Trade Desk to discover opportunity, contribute to
our customers’ success, and be part of building the future of
marketing. You’ll work with creative, compassionate, and collaborative
colleagues that share a passion for making the internet better for all –
a combination that simply can't be beat.
When you join The Trade Desk, you’re joining a family. We
have open space work environments, adjustable sitting/standing desks,
and a celebrated open-door policy (at all levels) that can inspire
out-of-the-box solutions and camaraderie among your coworkers. The
competitive compensation packages, full benefits, stock options, and
additional discounted stock purchase opportunities, catered lunches, and
offsite team building activities may cause slight to severe jealousy
among your peers.
WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR:
At The Trade Desk, we believe that each opportunity to engage with
consumers is unique. Because of this, our platform provides advertisers
and their agencies an unpreceded level of power and expressiveness to
describe and reach their target audience. This means user experience can make or break our business
– our users must have all the flexibility to harness our system’s
growing power and present meaningful insight from the petabytes of data
streaming through our platform with unparalleled ease.
If you have the talent and passion for building highly-interactive,
innovative, and lightning-fast web UI, and interest in working on one of
the most expressive and data-rich interfaces in the world, then this is
a great opportunity to bring your creativity, design, and engineering skills to bear to solve some of the toughest usability and interaction challenges anywhere.
WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TABLE:
- You are a skilled senior front-end developer, with several years' experience in a modern, interactive client-side framework (React+Redux is a big plus)
- You have a track record of significant, specific, and self-directed contributions
to complex and challenging UX projects. What we're getting at here is
"grit" or "street cred" – some proof that this isn't your first rodeo,
and you have learned some lessons the hard way.
- You are passionate for building beautiful and seamless user interfaces. You know how to give users something that is more than just functional – you know how to delight them!
- You love technology and want to both work with and advance the state of the art. Every day we are solving problems that have never been solved before, and we need developers with chops to handle it.
- You work quickly and self-reliantly. We're not
exactly a startup anymore, but we run our team like one – fast and lean –
which means every engineer has a high degree of ownership and potential
impact. Our engineers have the opportunity (and are expected) to
exercise leadership and expertise in their daily work, having strongly
held and defensible ideas, and advocating for what they believe is
right. But they also need to be eager to hear differing opinions, adept
at identifying and evaluating tradeoffs, willing to be proven wrong,
and quick to walk through fire to help their fellow teammates.
