VideoAmp is on a mission to create the best employee and workplace experience where people can bring their whole self to work everyday.  We believe that accomplishing something great requires a special group of people who work hard, drive results and have a blast while doing it - people who challenge the status quo and embody our values.  People who say “I’ll find a way” instead of saying “it can’t be done.”

At VideoAmp, we believe in challenging advertising paradigms to maximize value for clients. We do this by enabling companies to execute on business outcomes across their media investment instead of more traditional media metrics. VideoAmp is the software and data solutions company powering the convergence of linear TV and digital video advertising. Our solutions connect linear TV viewership with addressable data assets to benefit the marketing and media industries. This enables marketers and content owners to holistically plan, transact, and measure deduplicated audiences across digital video, OTT, connected and linear TV advertising.  

Role & Responsibilities

About the Team
Our Reporting team builds the foundation for data visualization across our products. We’re responsible for designing and delivering the data APIs that power both graphical and tabular reporting, as well as developing the UI components that bring that data to life. The team is remote, highly collaborative, focused on enabling insights through intuitive and reliable reporting experiences.
About the Role
As a Principal Engineer on the Reporting team, you’ll act as both a technical leader and a hands-on contributor. This is a true player/coach role: you’ll mentor and support junior and mid-level engineers, troubleshoot complex technical challenges, and unblock delivery on strategic goals. You’ll also contribute directly by writing code, guiding design decisions, and supporting products post-release.
What You’ll Do
  • Mentor, coach, and guide engineers at varying levels of experience.
  • Troubleshoot production and development issues, ensuring high-quality reporting features.
  • Write and review code with an emphasis on clean, scalable APIs and robust UI components.
  • Provide technical direction to keep sprint goals and long-term initiatives on track.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with product and design teams to build data-driven experiences.
  • Support released products by diagnosing and resolving issues quickly.
What We’re Looking For
  • Proven ability to thrive in an ambiguous, fast-paced environment.
  • Hands-on experience as both an individual contributor and a technical leader.
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills with a focus on unblockers and problem-solving.
  • Open-minded and adaptable — industry experience is flexible, what matters is technical depth and leadership.
Tech Stack & Skills
  • Must-have:
    • Strong experience with Go
    • Strong experience designing and building APIs
  • Strong plus:
    • Python
  • Nice to have:
    • HTMX experience (or willingness to learn)
    • Experience with data visualization frameworks (e.g., D3.js, Sigma.js, or similar)
    • Exposure to MCP and similar methodologies

What We Offer

This position has a salary range of $184,000 - $220,000 + Equity + Benefits. The actual compensation offer will be determined by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, applicant's qualifications, skills, and experience.

  • Discretionary and flexible paid time off
  • In addition to standard US holidays off, VideoAmp employees also partake in Spring, Summer and Winter breaks
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision benefits for you and your dependents - including multiple options fully covered by VideoAmp
  • Unlimited financial wellness sessions with Origin financial advisors
  • 401k Plan with matching
  • HSA & FSA
  • Commuter Benefits
  • Cell Phone Reimbursement
  • Paid Maternity and Parental Leave for All Family Additions

We are on a collective mission to bring equity and transparency into media measurement, and that begins with an honest, inclusive culture. At VideoAmp, we empower our team to thrive through collaboration, mentorship, and innovation. If you're passionate about all things data and tech, and have extensive knowledge and curiosity around the digital media space, we’d love to hear from you.

Above all, if you're eager to influence and support the revolutionary goals of a dynamic, cross-functional team -  join us and make an impact!

The Company
HQ: Los Angeles, CA
400 Employees
Year Founded: 2014

What We Do

We believe every human on the planet should have the option of free access to the world’s information and content. In many cases this belief is powered by a three way value exchange between a publisher producing free content, a consumer consuming it and an advertiser paying the publisher for the chance to connect with its audience.

The underpinning of this value exchange relies on having an independent auditing, measurement and optimization layer to power the transaction between the advertiser and publisher.


Today the industry standard tools for advertising and media measurement and optimization are usually designed where increased personalization, higher advertising return on investment and increased publisher revenues often comes with negative trade off for consumer privacy or security risks of leaking private data. We envision a world where this doesn't have to be the case - a world where consumer privacy, security, and governance are incorporated into the fabric of the codebase while enabling the necessary business use-cases to effectively keep the world’s information and content free for everyone.


VideoAmp’s mission is to create software and data solutions to enable advertisers to accurately measure and optimize their entire portfolio of linear TV, OTT, digital and walled garden investments while empowering publishers to effectively align and monetize their audiences with the advertiser’s desired outcome in a consumer-first privacy paradigm.

Unlimited paid time off each year
Company-sponsored health, dental and vision benefits for you and your dependents
Pet Insurance Savings
Work from home set up provided
