About the Role
Our Segment Personalization team is the foundation of Attentive's personalization capabilities, processing and serving data for over 100 million customers daily to enable AI-driven, personalized customer experiences. We operate mission-critical infrastructure that powers product recommendations, audience segmentation, and personalized content across the platform. Our systems handle billions of events, serve millions of API requests daily, and drive direct impact to our customer's revenue generation on Attentive.
As a Software Engineer II, you will build and improve features across our personalization services, contributing directly to systems that power how Attentive understands products and customers. You will develop a strong understanding of the services you own. Working alongside senior engineers, you will grow your expertise in distributed systems, data pipelines, and real-time processing.
Engineering is changing fast, and this team is pushing the boundaries at our discipline. We believe the craft is moving one level of abstraction higher, away from writing code line by line and toward designing systems with judgment, clarity, and simplicity. We use AI aggressively in how we build, and we expect engineers to think deeply about how our systems work to steer outcomes. If you're ambitious about where engineering is headed, this is a team where you'll develop that mindset by doing real work at scale.

Your Expertise
- 2-4 years experience as a Software Engineer, with a foundation in building backend services and a desire to deepen your skills in distributed systems
- You understand what clean, correct code looks like and follow established best practices, with a strong understanding of data structures, algorithms, and software design fundamentals
- You are familiar with relational and non-relational databases and understand how data modeling and access patterns affect system performance and reliability
