Not everyone has the same level of access to opportunities.
What is most important to us is what and how you can contribute, which is why our consideration is not limited by the level of education you haveYou have additional nice-to-have experience in the following areas:Proficiency with a modern language such as C# or JavaExperience working in large codebases, organizing and refactoringExperience with configuration managementExperience with continuous integration and continuous deploymentExperience with configuration and management in cloud/virtualization environments (AWS, Azure, Docker, Kubernetes, etc.
)A variety of technical opportunities is one of the best things about working at The Trade Desk as a software engineer, which is why we do not expect you to know every technology we use when you start.
What we care about is that you can learn quickly and find solutions to complex problems using the optimum tools for the job.
What you know is less important than how well you learn and innovate.
We are not seeking engineers who know all the answers; we need engineers who can invent answers no one has thought of yet and find answers to the questions yet to be asked.
