What is a Software Engineer at Known?
A Software Engineer at Known plays a critical role in bridging the gap between advanced data science, modern media strategies, and highly scalable technology products. As a engineered-product driven agency, Known relies on its engineering team to build proprietary software that optimizes advertising campaigns, manages massive datasets, and delivers real-time analytics. Whether you are developing highly responsive user interfaces or architecting robust backend pipelines, your work directly impacts how some of the world's largest brands interact with their audiences.
In this role, you will contribute to core products that handle complex data processing, automated media buying, and machine learning integrations. For example, engineers on the product team frequently work with modern frontend frameworks like React to build intuitive, performance-oriented dashboards, while platform engineers design the microservices and data pipelines that power these interfaces. The engineering culture at Known is highly collaborative, requiring you to work closely with data scientists, product managers, and creative teams to translate complex business requirements into elegant technical solutions.
The scale and complexity of the problem space make this position exceptionally rewarding. You will face challenges related to high-throughput data processing, state management in complex web applications, and system reliability. To succeed, you must possess a strong foundation in software engineering principles, a passion for product quality, and the adaptability to navigate a fast-paced, evolving technical landscape.
