Senior Data Engineer, Ads

About the Role

Discord has a highly engaged community of millions of daily active users who use the platform for many different reasons, but there’s one thing that nearly everyone does: play video games. Discord plays a uniquely important role in the future of gaming, and we are focused on making it easier and more fun for people to hang out before, during, and after playing games. Discord seeks a seasoned Data Engineer, focusing on our advertising product data. In this role, you will drive technical vision and strategy for ads data engineering in support of our ML initiatives while building and maintaining sophisticated data pipelines, datasets, and analytical tools. You will lead cross-functional initiatives to transform our advertising products through data-driven insights and mentor fellow engineers to deliver exceptional results. This role works heavily with Data Science, Machine Learning, and product. If leading technical innovation, architecting scalable solutions, and empowering teams through data excites you, we encourage you to make a move! What You'll Be Doing Design and own core ads data models : fact/dim tables, canonical datasets, and aggregation layers that power delivery, measurement, targeting, attribution, and ML use cases. Build and maintain the ML data that enables ads ranking, delivery, and targeting - including feature development, label generation workflows, intra-day training, and ML input observability to catch data quality issues before they degrade model performance. Build conversion measurement pipelines and integrate third-party attribution data - including Conversion Attribution and Mobile Measurement Partner (MMP) integrations (Adjust, AppsFlyer, Singular) - ensuring attribution accuracy and data parity across measurement surfaces. Build batch and near real-time pipeline infrastructure across the ads ecosystem - pushing toward lower-latency data for ML and reporting use cases on our BigQuery + dbt + Dagster stack.
