We are looking for Senior Software Engineers

Target total compensation of $245,000 - $360,000, including a fixed annual salary of $170,000 - $235,000, an employee equity plan grant, and world-class benefits.

Equity grants are issued in good faith, subject to company policies, board approval, and individual eligibility.

The Role

We are looking for mid-senior level Software Engineers who have shipped real software, solved hard problems, and are ramping towards/ready to own functional areas of a platform. You'll bring the domain depth needed to tackle challenges that AI tooling still gets wrong - and the judgment to know when to lean on it and when to go deeper yourself.

Depending on your skills and business needs, you'll be placed into one of several core areas: customer data infrastructure, data platform engineering, commerce systems, real-time personalization, or foundational platform services. You'll work as part of an autonomous team owning a specific problem space, partnering closely with other engineers and product managers to solve interesting problems and drive business value.

You'll also play a direct role in mentoring the junior engineers coming through behind you, helping set the technical standard for a rapidly growing engineering team in New York.

What You’ll Do

• Own Complex Systems End-to-End: Break down complex projects into executable tasks, provide accurate estimates for multi-quarter work, and deliver on time.

• Build and Scale Core Production Systems: Architect, build, and scale software and systems that power Rokt's ecommerce platform - services that demand low latency, high throughput, and rock-solid reliability.

• Raise the Bar on Engineering Quality: Own system health, monitoring, and architectural decisions. Act as first responder during incidents and promote best practices across your team.

• Accelerate Development with AI: Leverage AI tools and automation to speed up coding, testing, and deployment across the team. Build libraries, frameworks, and tooling that others can use.

• Mentor and Multiply: Coach junior engineers through pairing, code review, and structured feedback. Shape team processes and participate in recruiting the next generation of Rokt engineers.

• Collaborate Across Functions: Partner cross-functionally (product, Machine Learning Research, Go-to-Market) to align engineering delivery with business objectives. Communicate progress clearly to stakeholders at all levels.
