6sense is seeking a Senior Software Engineer (IC4) to own high-scale backend services powering their advertising analytics ecosystem. You will take technical ownership of mission-critical services handling millions of events daily, interfacing with third-party platforms.
Core responsibilities include:
**Technical Ownership & Backend Optimization**: Lead development and maintenance of high-throughput, low-latency APIs. Write clean, efficient, performant code in Python and Django. Serve as the go-to specialist for solving complex concurrency issues and optimizing service performance at scale.
**Big Data Execution**: Design and optimize data workflows using tools like Hive, Flink, or Trino. Write and tune complex queries to ensure fast, cost-effective data processing across the platform.
**Cross-Stack Collaboration**: Partner with front-end engineers to ensure client-facing features are designed for maximum data fidelity and backend compatibility. Contribute to architectural decisions that impact the entire system.
**System Design & Scalability**: Ensure all designs are performant, consistent, and scalable. Take ownership of end-to-end system reliability and performance metrics.
You should be a deep specialist in Python/Django with equal comfort diving into big data pipelines. This is an individual contributor role focused on technical excellence and system ownership, not people management. The role offers the opportunity to work on infrastructure that directly impacts 6sense's core product and customer value.
