The posting

The Trade Desk is a global technology company and the world’s leading independent platform for digital advertising, with over 3,000 employees across more than 30 offices. Our technology helps advertisers reach the right audiences across the open internet — from streaming TV and podcasts to mobile apps, news, and more.

Advertising powers the content people love. By making it more transparent, effective, and responsible, we help support trusted journalism, quality entertainment, and creators worldwide. The world’s brands and agencies rely on us to reach their customers and grow their businesses responsibly.

The scale of our platform brings unique technical challenges — from processing massive datasets in real time to building systems that operate reliably on a global scale. When you work here, your impact is worldwide. We welcome diverse perspectives, encourage curiosity, and build teams that learn from one another. If you’re driven to solve meaningful challenges, we’d love to meet you.

Who we are

We're a small, high-impact team building the next-generation TV operating system. Our flexible structure gives engineers direct influence over product direction—an opportunity rarely found in larger companies.

Our innovative approach to the CTV industry optimizes the advertising supply chain, creating better outcomes for advertisers, publishers, and TV viewers alike. As part of our Ventura OS project, we're developing sophisticated backend infrastructure to power our platform, with a strong emphasis on quality at scale.

We believe culture matters. We foster an environment where engineers thrive through collaboration, innovation, and continuous learning. Our teams build cutting-edge streaming technology that enables advertisers to leverage data for more relevant and effective ad experiences—while improving efficiency across the entire supply chain ecosystem.

What you’ll do:

We’re looking for a passionate and experienced Senior Software Engineer to join our team and help drive feature development across our Android-based products, including both mobile and TV platforms. You’ll work closely with product managers, designers, and fellow engineers to deliver high-quality, user-centric features using modern Android development practices.

  • Contribute to the design and implementation of new features across Android platforms, including mobile and TV.
  • Write clean, maintainable, and efficient Kotlin code using Coroutines and Jetpack Compose.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define, design, and ship new features.
  • Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and mentoring of junior engineers.
  • Continuously improve performance, reliability, and developer experience across devices.
  • Advocate for best practices in Android development and contribute to technical decision-making.

Who you are:

One of the best things about being a software engineer at The Trade Desk is the variety of technical opportunities available. We don’t expect you to know every technology we use from day one—what matters most is your ability to learn quickly and solve complex problems using the best tools for the job. What you know is less important than how well you adapt, innovate, and think critically.

We’re not looking for engineers who have all the answers—we need engineers who can invent answers no one has thought of yet and solve problems that haven’t even been defined.

Our culture goes beyond just having fun together (though we do that well, too). We take pride in being trust-builders, generous givers, scrappy problem solvers, and relentless pursuers of excellence.

You don’t have to meet every requirement below, but if you check most of these boxes, you’re likely to thrive in this role.

What You Bring:

  • Strong experience in Android development with a deep understanding of the Android SDK.
  • Proficiency in Kotlin, including Coroutines for asynchronous programming.
  • Hands-on experience with Jetpack Compose for modern UI development.
  • Solid understanding of architecture patterns (MVI, Repository pattern, Interactors/Use Cases, ).
  • Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git), CI/CD pipelines, and testing frameworks.
  • Excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset.
  • Ability to mentor and support other engineers.
  • Experience with Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) or interest in cross-platform development.
  • Familiarity with dependency injection frameworks (e.g., Metro, Hilt or Dagger).
  • Experience with performance optimization, accessibility, and analytics.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
