About the role

  • We're hiring multiple Staff Engineers to join a small, high-performance group supporting the engineering organizations behind Sailthru, LiveIntent, and WhatCounts - the three platforms that make up Zeta Actions, a business unit within Zeta Global.
  • The common thread is that you're someone teams want in the room when things get hard.
  • Real scale, real complexity - billions of messages, live traffic, meaningful performance and reliability constraints.

Responsibilities

  • Identify systemic engineering challenges across our platforms and drive their resolution - shaping the technical backlog and near-term architecture.
  • Propose and validate technical approaches for problems involving scale, performance, security, or cross-team dependencies.
  • Lead architectural decisions for complex, ambiguous, or high-risk initiatives.
  • Write code, review PRs, debug production issues, and optimize system performance - this is not a whiteboard-only role.
  • Step in during large incidents to help teams triage, coordinate, and resolve - and follow through with post-incident reviews that drive lasting fixes.
  • Partner with engineering teams as a technical point of contact on complex projects - ensuring good architectural decisions get documented and don't have to be re-litigated.
  • Active investment in AI engineering - you'll help shape how we build AI capabilities into the platform itself, not just use them in your own workflow.
  • You'll be expected to find the important problems, make the case for solving them, and drive them to resolution.
  • The best staff engineers here create their own leverage.

Compensation

  • $160k-$180k

  • The Role
  • We're hiring multiple Staff Engineers to join a small, high-performance group supporting the engineering organizations behind Sailthru, LiveIntent, and WhatCounts - the three platforms that make up Zeta Actions, a business unit within Zeta Global. This is a deeply technical IC role. You'll spend most of your time in the code, the architecture, and the hard problems these teams run into as they build and operate platforms that serve brands and publishers at massive scale.
  • Staff Engineers engage with teams in a few different ways - as a technical partner on complex projects, as a hands-on contributor to high-priority initiatives, or as an on-demand expert for teams that hit an architectural wall. The common thread is that you're someone teams want in the room when things get hard.
