Senior • Remote
65,000 - 70,000 EUR
Berlin, BE, Germany
At Adsquare, our mission is driven by two core pillars:
Passion – Solving complex challenges with great people, technology, and data
Niche – Location Intelligence for Programmatic Advertising
Our core values are at the heart of everything we do:
Drive: We turn ambition into action
Resilience: We adapt, persevere, and grow stronger
No BS: We value honesty, transparency, and clear communication
Humble: We choose modesty over vanity and let results speak for themselves
Moral Compass: We do the right thing with fairness, integrity, and respect
We are looking for candidates who not only bring strong technical expertise but also embody these values in their everyday work.
Your Mission
As a Senior Backend Engineer at Adsquare, you will take ownership of designing and operating high-scale distributed systems that power our core data products.
Your primary mission is to build reliable, high-throughput backend services on the JVM that process and serve large volumes of location intelligence data in real time.
You will work in a highly autonomous, cross-functional team and are expected to proactively identify problems, propose solutions, and drive them into production.
In this role, you will:
Design and evolve distributed backend systems with a strong focus on scalability, performance, and reliability
Own services end-to-end: from architecture decisions to production operations
Build and operate cloud-native systems on AWS
Collaborate closely with Product and Data teams to deliver impactful features
Continuously improve system design, engineering practices, and team effectiveness
Your Profile
We are looking for a senior-level engineer with strong backend and cloud experience, comfortable owning complex production systems.
Must have
4–5+ years of experience building backend systems in production environments
Strong expertise in Java or other JVM-based languages (Kotlin, Scala) and the Spring ecosystem
Proven experience designing and operating distributed systems under real-world load
Hands-on experience with AWS and cloud-native architectures
Strong understanding of concurrency, data consistency, and system reliability
Experience with PostgreSQL or other relational databases in high-throughput environments
Ability to debug and optimize production systems (performance, memory, latency)
Proactive mindset: you identify problems, take ownership, and drive solutions independently
We especially value candidates who:
Have worked on high-volume data or high-throughput systems
Understand trade-offs between architectural approaches (sync vs async, etc.)
Are comfortable making decisions in ambiguous environments
What You Will Do
Maintain and evolve existing partner integrations, ensuring reliability and scalability
Design and build new integrations for large-scale data delivery
Contribute to migrating services toward a cloud-native AWS architecture
Monitor system health, troubleshoot production issues, and improve stability
Desired Background
We are particularly interested in candidates with experience in:
Data-intensive or high-throughput backend systems
Cloud-based architectures (especially AWS)
API-driven or partner integration systems
Monolith-to-distributed or cloud-native transformations
Your Opportunities
In this role, you will have real influence over the technical direction of our systems.
We operate with a high level of ownership: engineers are expected to make decisions, propose improvements, and drive execution from idea to production.
You will:
Shape system architecture and key technical decisions
Own services end-to-end and evolve them over time
Contribute to scaling our systems and data processing capabilities
Work in an environment that values initiative and accountability
Recruiting Process
Our hiring process is transparent, focused, and respectful of your time:
Intro & Values Conversation – Getting to know each other, discussing experience, and aligning expectations
Technical Interviews – Backend fundamentals and system design discussions
Final Step – Team meeting followed by decision and offer
A reference check will be conducted at the final stage.
Our Tech Stack
Our backend stack is centered around the JVM ecosystem and AWS:
Core technologies:
Java (11+) and Kotlin
Spring / Spring Boot
AWS (S3, SQS/SNS, Lambda, etc.)
PostgreSQL
Also used in our environment:
Terraform (Infrastructure as Code)
MongoDB
Kubernetes
Data tools (Athena, Glue, Batch, Step Functions)
We do not expect experience with all of these technologies, but you should be comfortable working in modern cloud and data-intensive environments.
