As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, you will design and develop scalable solutions for Viant's Demand Side Platform, collaborating closely with product and engineering teams.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
Viant’s customers use the Demand Side Platform (DSP)to set up, run and monitor ad campaigns. The platform team owns a complex set of backend services and the frontend UI that makes up the DSP. These services are deployed in a distributed, multi-region, cloud-based infrastructure and use the latest technologies to handle the immensely complicated functionality that is part of any Demand Side Platform (DSP) such as Viant DSP.
As a senior engineer on the Platform team, you will work on building software that solves complex problems while considering long-term strategy and direction. You will deliver simple, elegant, scalable, extensible solutions that strike the right balance between short-term and long-term considerations. You will design, develop, maintain and trouble software features with an eye on cost, scalability, performance and fault-tolerance. You will participate in design discussions, code reviews and bug triage / Root Cause Analysis (RCA) sessions.
Primarily supporting Viant’s DSP, you will collaborate with Product, other Engineering and Technical operations teams on the entire lifecycle from ideation to productization and beyond.

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
