What You'll Be Doing
Act as a technical leader and domain expert on e-commerce product catalog data modeling that will enable us to build world-class shopping experiences, content recommendations, and promotions that serve low latency content to our Shop UIs. Be a strategic partner with engineering, product, and cross functional leadership to advise and chart out pathways to scaling revenue operations and business lines.

Provide feature teams with tools and platform support needed to spin up new monetization products. Improve the reliability, observability, and stability of Discord’s commerce systems.What you should have
Deep domain expertise in the e-commerce platform world: product catalogs, content management, marketplaces, pricing, promotional offers, and discounts. Experience at scale by working on high throughput, low latency systems that power our commerce flows. Backend and data experience. We work across multiple stacks for web, desktop, and mobile, but this role will primarily be backend focused. You should have deep experience with platforms, tools and frameworks similar to Python Flask, GCP, Postgres, BigQuery, analytics tools such as Looker and Mode, and observability tools like Datadog. A growth mindset. You view mistakes as learning opportunities and build upon your successes. You challenge yourself and those around you to continuously improve. A focus on impact. You have a sharp eye for what changes can bring a product from good to great. You collaborate closely with product managers, designers, analysts, and other engineers to define great solutions to business problems. A sense of ownership. You believe in solving a problem completely rather than simply shipping a solution. You operate autonomously and follow through on your commitments. A love of mentorship of fellow engineers, providing feedback and guidance on system architecture, API design, data modeling, and tradeoffs. 8+ years of experience, 4+ in relevant roles.
