The Role

At MNTN, we put our people first, full stop. This allows our company culture to be defined by our team members, and their shared values, like trust, ambition, quality, radical honesty, and compassionate leadership. It’s why we all really love working for the Hardest Working Software in Television™ (and also why we were named one of Ad Age’s Best Places To Work in 2024.)

We pride ourselves on bringing unrivaled performance and simplicity to Connected TV advertising. Our self-serve technology makes running TV ads as easy as search and social and helps brands drive measurable conversions, revenue, site visits, and more. It’s what led MNTN to being named one of Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies in 2023. You can learn more about us and everything we do by visiting https://mountain.com/.

We’re committed to innovation that empowers, not replaces. At MNTN, AI is a tool for growth, enhancing efficiency while keeping a people-first approach. Our goal is to streamline workflows and drive new solutions—without compromising the human element that makes our company great.

So if wanting to do more, own more, and make a bigger impact comes naturally to you, then you may be the person we're looking for to join us in our next stage of growth.

The MNTN Creative Delivery Services team manages ad delivery from backend to front end. As part of this team, you’ll contribute to the core infrastructure that drives creative processing, delivery, and optimization across our entire platform. You'll be joining the group that owns our high-volume ad server and the pipelines that manage how creative assets are ingested, transformed, and served. As a Backend Engineer, you'll play a key role in developing scalable systems, improving performance, and building new integrations that expand creative capabilities for some of the world’s most recognizable brands. Your work will directly impact the flexibility, speed, and reliability of our ad experiences—at scale.
 
What You’ll Do:
  • Create and support Java/Kotlin APIs and services to support our creative delivery systems
  • Work across different technologies, including languages and tools like Rust, Kafka, Terraform and several RDBMSes
  • Build high volume services that are reliable at scale
  • Understand the broader context of our software beyond the components you build
  • Raise the bar on our engineering culture, leading by example
  • Collaborate with and explain complex technical issues to Product and Project Leads
  • Optimize and enhance existing products

What You’ll Bring:

  • 5+ years of Java, Kotlin, or Scala development experience
  • Comfort diving in to tech stacks outside your primary specialization
  • A desire to understand the purpose and impact of the tools you build
  • Strong proficiency in SQL, table design, indexing and other common database skills
  • Integration of AI tools such as Cursor, ChatGPT and other LLM based copilots in your workflow
  • Experience with RESTful APIs and microservices-based architecture
  • Familiarity with Git and Linux/UNIX environments
  • Experience on AWS, GCP, or other cloud infrastructure

MNTN Perks:

  • 100% remote within the US
  • Flexible vacation policy
  • Annual vacation allowance for travel related expenses
  • Three-day weekend every month of the year
  • Competitive compensation
  • 100% healthcare coverage
  • 401k plan
  • Flexible Spending Account (FSA) for dependent, medical, and dental care
  • Access to coaching, therapy, and professional development

About MNTN:

Our recruiters will always reach out using an email address ending with @mountain.com OR @mntn.com. If you’re contacted by someone without that address and they mention a Reference Code (which we never use), then that ain’t us folks. Tell those trolls to take a hike–you’re waiting to climb a MNTN.
