About the company
This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Growth Engineer based in Germany.
Responsibilities
- Build and maintain robust server-to-server integrations with major advertising and marketing platforms, including Meta CAPI, Google server-to-server integrations, and AppsFlyer.
- Own end-to-end web and application tracking parity, smart script implementations, and relevant mobile measurement configurations such as SKAN.
- Establish and maintain marketing tracking standards covering event naming conventions, schema versioning, consent management, and implementation governance.
- Serve as a technical authority for tracking quality, ensuring instrumentation is consistent, reliable, scalable, and aligned with established standards.
- Engineer and continuously improve the data infrastructure supporting attribution models, including integrations with advertising spend APIs, session data, and commercial metrics.
- Develop infrastructure that enables profit and gross-margin signals to be shared with advertising platforms to support value-based bidding and more effective acquisition strategies.
- Productionize machine learning models from early prototypes into reliable, monitored pipelines, including CLTV scoring, causal impact tooling, and models for non-trackable conversions.
- Build AI-assisted growth engineering tools, such as automated spend anomaly detection and LLM-powered systems for managing and improving tracking taxonomies.
- Develop pipeline infrastructure supporting lead scoring, intent signal enrichment, and CRM data quality.
- Build and maintain integration layers that enable experimentation with AI-powered sales and growth tools.
- Implement advanced matching, first-party data enrichment, and probabilistic matching techniques to improve signal quality as third-party tracking becomes increasingly limited.
- Act as a technical partner to Growth squads by resolving integration challenges, reviewing instrumentation, and identifying opportunities to replace bespoke implementations with scalable shared infrastructure.
- Collaborate with Data Engineering, Analytics, Growth, Sales, Partnerships, and other commercial stakeholders to translate business hypotheses into precise technical requirements.
- Document architectural decisions, integration patterns, technical standards, and data practices to create scalable and accessible institutional knowledge.
- Promote strong engineering practices around testing, reliability, maintainability, monitoring, and production ownership across growth technology systems.
Requirements
- Strong professional experience in software engineering, with a track record of building clean, tested, maintainable, production-grade systems.
- Strong understanding of software design principles and experience applying Domain-Driven Design concepts to data, growth, or business systems.
- Extensive experience building and operating integrations using REST APIs, webhooks, event-driven architectures, or similar distributed systems technologies.
- Strong understanding of the failure modes, reliability considerations, and operational challenges associated with distributed systems and third-party integrations.
- Deep knowledge of modern marketing tracking, including browser and in-app consent frameworks, cookie-less measurement, server-side tagging, and the impact of privacy changes such as iOS restrictions on attribution.
- Strong data engineering capabilities, including advanced SQL, data modeling, pipeline architecture, and data reliability practices.
- Ability to work comfortably with Data Engineers and Analysts and translate analytical requirements into robust technical implementations.
- Experience working with commercial stakeholders such as Sales, Partnerships, and Growth leadership, with the ability to turn commercial hypotheses into clear technical requirements.
- Practical experience taking machine learning models into production, including monitoring, drift detection, fallback mechanisms, reliability, and clear ownership.
- Familiarity with modern AI engineering approaches, including LLMs, embeddings, vector search, and AI-assisted development tools.
- Strong engineering judgment and the ability to distinguish where AI can provide meaningful value from situations where conventional engineering approaches are more appropriate.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to operate effectively across technical and business teams.
- Comfortable working independently, taking ownership of complex problems, and making sound technical decisions in ambiguous environments.
- Familiarity with causal inference techniques such as difference-in-differences, synthetic control, or uplift modeling is a strong advantage.
- Experience building or scaling shared platform infrastructure within a high-growth consumer or B2B SaaS environment is a plus.
