Full Job Description

Tatari is on a mission to revolutionize TV advertising. Founded in 2016 to help transform the antiquated world of TV advertising through the intelligent application of AI and machine learning, Tatari helps some of the world’s fastest growing brands including Chime, Calm, Tecovas, Manscaped, Saatva, and Liquid I.V., reach their customers using linear and streaming TV ads. Our platform combines sophisticated media buying with proprietary analytics to turn TV advertising into an automated, digital-like experience, enabling businesses of any size to advertise on TV. That approach has earned Tatari broad industry recognition, including being named Best CTV AdTech Platform in the 8th annual MarTech Breakthrough Awards, as well as honors from Digiday (Best Connected TV Platform), AdExchanger (Most Innovative TV Advertising Technology), and Business Insider (Hottest AdTech Companies). Tatari has also been recognized as the Best Place to Work by Inc. Magazine. Backed by an executive team of former founders and senior leaders from companies including Shazam, TrueCar, AdapTV, LiveRail, Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and Yahoo, Tatari continues to scale rapidly as TV advertising enters its next major era. This is a systems and infrastructure position first. As a Data Platform Engineer, you will be responsible for the reliability, stability, and operational health of our data platform — including how it is deployed, monitored, maintained, and promoted across environments. Data engineering skills are a plus and will be developed on the job; what we cannot teach is operational discipline. If you have spent your career keeping production systems alive, know what it feels like to break prod and never want to do it again, and treat lower environments as non-negotiable gates rather than suggestions — we want to talk to you. This is not a data engineering role. You will not spend most of your time writing jobs or consuming the platform. You will be administering, scaling, hardening,
