adjoe builds the technologies behind mobile apps growth and monetization. With our core product Playtime Arcade , we've become the global leader in rewarded advertising, an ad unit built on a simple premise: users earn real in-app rewards for engaging with new apps. The result is one of the most effective value exchanges in adtech, connecting advertisers and publishers with over 770 million users annually. Engineering the sub-millisecond decision engine that powers 200 million daily ad interactions The Demand Core team builds the infrastructure that determines which of our thousands of active advertising campaigns are relevant to a user the moment they open our ad unit Playtime. At our scale, system latency is a business failure, downtime means advertisers stop spending, users stop earning rewards, and publisher revenue stalls. You will build and operate the services that power these decisions 200 million times every day . Go microservices load the active ad campaign catalog into memory, evaluating 40+ targeting constraints and 30+ real-time signals , geo, fraud status, budget caps to rank potential user performance in milliseconds . Beyond campaign distribution, the team owns the entire ad interaction chain: processing clicks, views, MMP postbacks from Adjust and AppsFlyer , and in-app events that trigger rewards. These events are broadcasted through a hybrid messaging architecture using SNS/SQS and Kafka , directly powering our advertiser dashboards, publisher reward payouts, and ad campaign scoring pipelines, all backed by DynamoDB . Your Mission & Who We Are Looking For: Production Golang Systems Expertise: You bring 5+ years of backend development experience, including at least 3 years writing Go in production distributed environments. You will build and maintain our +99% Go microservice architecture—interfacing with our TypeScript/React frontend—to reliably handle 2+ million daily publisher interactions and scale beyond hundreds of millions of monthly active users. High-Throughput Event Streaming: You have hands-on experience designing asynchronous microservice communication using event buses like Kafka, SQS/SNS, and Kinesis. You will build pipelines to collect billions of daily API events and aggregate them into our data lake for sub-second querying. High-Scale Data & API Optimization: You understand database internals and low-level web standards (HTTP protocol, Encoding, Regular Expressions). You will optimize queries across hundreds of terabytes of data across DynamoDB, MySQL, Druid, and Athena to reduce API response times and expose transparent, well-documented open APIs to enterprise partners. Data Science & Algorithmic Integration: You quickly grasp complex technical topics and applied mathematics. You will partner directly with our Data Science team to translate and integrate machine learning algorithms into adjoe’s core application, optimizing real-time ad targeting. Collaborative Technical Communication: You communicate fluently and precisely in spoken and written English. You will actively participate in peer code reviews and technical knowledge sharing across an international backend engineering team. Plus: Infrastructure & Cloud Tooling: Hands-on experience with Terraform (Infrastructure as Code), Docker containerization, or serverless infrastructure. 🌎 We welcome applications from talent worldwide and provide relocation support to Hamburg, Germany for those ready to join our team. What’s in It for You? At adjoe, you’re not here to just close JIRA tickets, you’re helping build the infrastructure behind one of the most impactful platforms in adtech. The systems you work on will reach hundreds of millions of users and power billions of decisions every day. Go Big. Own projects with impact on 770M users and push adtech boundaries. Move Fast. Ship solutions multiple times a day, learn from results, and keep momentum. Be Direct. Solve problems openly and collaborate across teams. Thrive Together.
