This person will act as the bridge between customer‑facing teams (mostly AMs and AEs) and Product & Tech: translating client use cases and operational constraints into robust technical architectures, and turning those architectures into clear, actionable briefs for our product managers and engineering teams. In line with Hootsuite's distributed workforce strategy, our flexible work arrangement allows for remote work. This role is open to applicants located in London, England, United Kingdom and Luxembourg, Luxembourg. In this role, you will report to the Solutions Director.

• Guide project teams (PS, Customer Success, Partner teams) during implementation as the “design authority” for the solution.
• Review technical configurations and integration setups to ensure they adhere to the agreed architecture and best practices.
• Help define standards, patterns, and reusable assets (templates, reference architectures, integration playbooks) that make future projects faster and more consistent.

• Solid understanding of modern web and SaaS architectures: RESTful APIs, webhooks, OAuth/SSO, microservices, event‑driven workflows.

• Comfort discussing technical topics with engineers (data structures, rate limits, performance considerations) even if you are not the one writing production code.
• Familiarity with data concepts: data mapping, normalization, basic SQL or BI concepts, and how social data flows into broader customer data ecosystems.
• Strong ability to translate technical possibilities and limitations into clear business impacts and trade‑offs.
• User and value‑oriented mindset: always able to answer “who is this for, what changes for them, and how do we measure success?”.
• Comfortable working in a fast‑moving environment with evolving requirements; able to iterate quickly while maintaining architectural rigor.

Our website is our most important marketing asset — where pipeline starts, brand perception forms, and every paid dollar lands. We're looking for a Principal-level engineer who can own the technical strategy for it, end to end.

You'll make architectural decisions, set engineering standards, manage external partners, and shape how the organisation thinks about digital experience as a growth lever. You'll get your hands dirty in code when it's high-stakes or foundational — but your primary value is judgment, strategic ownership, and accountability for outcomes.

The stack: Astro.js, TypeScript, Sanity (headless CMS), HubSpot, GTM, Google Analytics, Zendesk.

What you'll own

• End-to-end technical strategy for the marketing website — platform, architecture, and performance
• Website builds and redesigns from requirements through launch
• Conversion optimisation and experimentation infrastructure — enabling the growth team to move fast
• The website data layer — event architecture and tracking standards that feed broader BI
• Content infrastructure in Sanity — content models, reusable blocks, and COPE pipelines
• AI strategy for the site — evaluating where personalisation, dynamic content, and intelligent search can move the needle
• External partner management and build-vs-buy decisions

What we're looking for

• 12+ years of web development experience, with 5+ years at senior/principal level in B2B SaaS
• Deep expertise with Astro.js and Sanity (or Next.js + demonstrable Sanity depth)
• Proven track record leading major website projects with strategic and organisational implications
• Strong experience with A/B testing architecture, technical SEO, headless CMS, and the analytics/tracking layer
• Ability to communicate technical trade-offs clearly to non-technical stakeholders
• Practical, daily use of AI development tools (Cursor, Copilot, Claude, etc.)

Benefits

• Competitive compensation including equity
• Home office allowance
• Health care and leisure time insurance
• €1,000 annual learning budget
• Sports and wellbeing allowance

#LI-HYBRID

Own the strategic direction of a high-performance B2B SaaS website — and set the standard for how marketing websites drive revenue.

We’re looking for a Principal Digital Experience Engineer to join our Marketing team in Helsinki, Dublin, Amsterdam, or the UK.

Our website is our most important marketing asset — it’s where pipeline starts, where brand perception is formed, and where every campaign and paid media dollar ultimately lands. We don’t need another strong engineer who can build things. We need a recognised authority who can decide what should be built, why, and how — someone who sets the technical strategy for our entire web presence and is accountable for the outcomes.

This is a Principal-level individual contributor role (IC5). You’ll make architectural decisions, define engineering standards, influence senior leadership, manage external partners, and shape how the organisation thinks about digital web experience as a growth lever. You can and will get your hands dirty in the code when it matters — but your primary value is strategic ownership, technical authority, and the judgment to know where your time creates the most leverage.

The stack: Astro.js, TypeScript, Sanity (headless CMS), integrated with HubSpot, Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and Zendesk.

The strategic responsibilities you’ll own…

• End-to-end technical strategy for the marketing website — platform, stack, infrastructure, and architecture decisions that you make and are accountable for at the organisational level
• Website builds and redesigns from strategy through launch — you define technical requirements, set engineering standards, oversee delivery, and ensure the final product meets performance, accessibility, and brand standards
• The technical foundation for conversion optimisation and experimentation — designing site architecture where A/B testing, personalisation, and rapid iteration are first-class capabilities. You enable the growth team to move fast; you’re not the person running the tests
• Site performance, Core Web Vitals, uptime, and technical SEO health — developing and documenting performance methodologies that become organisational standards
• The website data layer — defining event architecture and tracking standards that feed the broader BI strategy, working with Data Architects and Analysts
• Content infrastructure strategy in Sanity — designing content models, reusable blocks, and ingestion pipelines that enable a “Create Once, Publish Everywhere” approach across the organisation
• AI strategy for the website — evaluating and championing where AI-driven personalisation, dynamic content, conversational interfaces, and intelligent search can measurably improve the visitor experience or conversion rate
• External partner management — briefing agencies and contractors, reviewing output quality, and making strategic build-vs-buy decisions
• Strategic influence — shaping how senior leadership and external stakeholders think about web as a growth lever, bringing data-backed recommendations, and influencing decisions well beyond your immediate scope

Where you’ll roll up your sleeves…

You’re not above the code — you’re selective about when you’re in it. You’ll get hands-on when the work is high-stakes, architecturally significant, or when you need to set the standard that others will follow. In practice, that looks like:

• Writing and reviewing TypeScript, Astro.js components, and Sanity integrations when the work is foundational or sets a pattern for others
• Managing deployments through GitHub, owning code quality for critical paths, and defining the engineering practices and documentation that keep the site resilient
• Monitoring and optimising Core Web Vitals and mobile performance — diagnosing and resolving issues that require deep technical expertise
• Implementing AI-driven features where you need to evaluate feasibility, set the approach, or prove the concept before handing off
• Building the first version of content models, ingestion pipelines, or integration patterns that engineers across departments will extend

How you’ll raise the bar…

• Mentoring and coaching colleagues at all levels on web best practices, modern development approaches, and AI tooling — acting as a role model across the organisation and potentially the broader industry
• Sharing knowledge proactively through documentation, internal sessions, and external contributions
• Collaborating as a credible technical peer with product and platform engineering teams across departments — not just marketing colleagues

This position is for you if you have…

• 12+ years of professional web development experience, with at least 5 years in B2B SaaS at a senior or principal level
• Deep, hands-on expertise with Astro.js and Sanity; candidates from a Next.js or similar TypeScript-first framework background will be considered provided they can demonstrate Sanity depth and a clear path to ramping up on Astro
• A proven track record of leading major website projects with significant strategic and organisational implications — not just building, but deciding what gets built and being accountable for the outcome
• Experience designing experimentation and personalisation infrastructure — A/B testing frameworks, dynamic content delivery, and the architectural patterns that enable growth teams to move fast at scale
• Strong understanding of technical SEO at a systems level — architecture, rendering strategies, structured data, and crawlability — approached as an engineering discipline that creates compounding gains
• Strong experience with headless CMS architecture — ideally Sanity, but Contentful or equivalent is relevant. Comfortable designing content models, reusable modular blocks, and COPE content pipelines
• Deep experience with the web analytics and tracking layer — event architecture, GTM, and data collection implementation
• Experience integrating with marketing automation and analytics platforms (e.g., HubSpot, Marketo, Segment, Google Analytics/GTM)
• Significant experience working within and actively improving structured engineering workflows — version control, branching strategies, PR review processes, deployment pipelines, and incident management
• Proven ability to collaborate as a credible technical peer with product and platform engineering teams across departments
• Practical, daily use of AI development tools (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude, etc.) and experience implementing AI-driven site features with measurable outcomes
• Demonstrated ability to influence senior leadership and external stakeholders through technical expertise and strategic thinking
• A track record of developing new approaches, methodologies, or standards that have been adopted across an organisation or recognised within the industry
• The ability to communicate technical trade-offs in plain language to non-technical stakeholders and influence decision-making at all levels

To be clear about what this role is and isn’t…

This is a strategic technical leadership role that happens to require deep engineering capability — not an engineering role with some strategy attached. You’ll be assessed on the decisions you make, the standards you set, and the outcomes you drive — not on lines of code shipped.

• You won’t be responsible for product/application development — this is a marketing-focused role
• You won’t be writing content or designing creative — you’ll work with content and design teammates to bring their work to life on the web
• You won’t be doing basic maintenance tickets daily — but if something is broken, you don’t leave it unfixed
• You won’t own data analysis, reporting, or conversion and growth strategy — you’ll be the authoritative technical voice responsible for technical execution and strategic technical leadership

Benefits we offer…

• Competitive compensation package, including equity
• Great work equipment and home office allowance for those in fully remote locations
• Health care benefit and leisure time insurance
• Annual €1,000 personal learning budget
• Sports and wellbeing allowance

#LI-Promoted

At IMC, we believe technology is the foundation of our competitive edge — and machine learning is increasingly central to how we trade. Over the past few years, we've been steadily building our machine learning capabilities: developing infrastructure, growing our in-house GPU cluster, deploying models into production, and partnering closely with quant researchers and traders to generate real impact. Now we’re expanding the team, scaling our systems, and accelerating the application of deep learning in our research and execution workflows.  We're looking for a Principal Machine Learning Engineer to help shape the next phase of our platform — influencing architecture, driving best practices, and solving high-leverage problems. You’ll work alongside researchers and technologists to design the systems that power experimentation, training, and deployment of ML models — and help set the direction for how machine learning is done at IMC as we scale. If you’ve built ML infrastructure at scale elsewhere and are looking for a role where your ideas will genuinely help shape our firm’s future — we’d love to hear from you.

Your Core Responsibilities: 

• Design and build end-to-end infrastructure for training, evaluation, and productionization of ML models, working closely with our HPC engineers who manage our on-prem compute cluster
• Influence foundational choices around data access, compute orchestration, experiment tracking, model versioning, and deployment pipelines
• Partner with quant researchers to accelerate iteration cycles, tighten feedback loops, and bring models from prototype to live trading
• Work with researchers to adapt and deploy modern architectures — transformers, state-space models, temporal convolutions, graph neural networks — to noisy, high-frequency financial data. Explore techniques like self-supervised pretraining, representation learning, and cross-sectional modelling where they offer genuine edge
• Shape our approach to reproducibility, continual learning, and production monitoring across a petabyte-scale data environment
• Define standards that create consistency across teams and geographies; mentor engineers and influence technical culture beyond your immediate work
• Keep pace with developments in deep learning research and ML infrastructure; bring ideas from academia and industry into how we work — whether that's new architectures, training techniques, or tooling

Your Skills and Experience: 

• 8+ years of experience building ML platforms or infrastructure at a leading tech company, research lab, or quantitative firm
• A track record of designing and owning large-scale training and inference systems — not just contributing, but architecting
• Deep proficiency in Python, with strong experience in either CUDA or C++
• Hands-on expertise with modern deep learning frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX) and practical experience implementing architectures like transformers, attention mechanisms, or sequence models
• Strong foundation in deep learning fundamentals: optimization, regularization, loss design, and the trade-offs that matter when training at scale
• Experience with distributed training at scale (Horovod, NCCL) and GPU optimization (cuDNN, TensorRT)
• History of deploying models to production with strong observability, reproducibility, and monitoring practices
• Comfort working across the ML stack from data pipelines to training infrastructure to serving systems

Why This Role: 

• Build, don't inherit — You'll make foundational technology choices in a platform that's still being defined, not maintain someone else's legacy.
• Real investment, real backing — This is a strategic priority with resources behind it, not a side experiment.
• Direct impact on trading — Your infrastructure will power models that make real trading decisions in competitive global markets.
• Global scope — Work with teams across New York, Chicago, Amsterdam, London, Sydney, Hong Kong and beyond; define practices that can scale worldwide.
• Ideas over titles — IMC's culture values clarity, rigor, and collaboration. The best ideas win, regardless of where they come from.
• Tight coupling with research — You won't be building in isolation. Researchers and engineers work side-by-side, iterating together.

Here’s a summary of the role:   

This is a principal-level role for someone who has already operated at Staff or Principal Engineer level in a sizeable engineering organization and can point to specific platform decisions — in production today — that they own. You'll set the technical direction for our AI-enabled platform: architecting secure, scalable, serverless systems on AWS, defining the patterns and governance practices that multiple teams adopt, and guiding where AI genuinely adds value across the stack. 

Your leverage comes from the systems, architectures, and standards you put in place — not from individual output. You'll mentor senior engineers, lead org-wide design decisions, and be the person other technical leaders turn to when the hard calls need to be made. You'll still write code, but that's not where your impact is measured. 

If you've led complex platform or AI initiatives at scale, have strong opinions about AI governance in production systems, and want the scope to shape an entire platform's future, this is that role. 

Here’s a breakdown of what you’ll do (not all of it, just the important stuff): 

• Shape engineering strategy with broad organizational impact — you'll influence long-term architectural direction across multiple teams and products, not just within your own squad. 

• Drive platform evolution by identifying cross-cutting pain points and leading the design of secure, scalable, reusable solutions built on AWS and modern serverless and microservice patterns. 

• Lead architectural discussions and design reviews where the stakes are real — making clear trade-offs around performance, security, reliability, and maintainability, and getting alignment across teams with competing priorities. 

• Own AI architectural decisions end-to-end: design AI-enabled systems with built-in governance, monitoring, and regulatory readiness baked in from the start, not retrofitted. Define where AI adds genuine value and where it doesn't. 

• Act as the organization's AI thought leader — educate engineering teams on model behavior, agentic systems, and responsible AI practices, and raise the overall maturity of how we design and deploy AI. 

• Mentor and stretch senior and staff engineers, building technical leadership depth across the organisation and holding a high bar for engineering standards. 

These are the essentials you’ll need to get an interview: 

• Principal-level track record at scale. 10+ years of software engineering experience, including at least 3 years' operating at Staff or Principal Engineer level in an organization of 100+ engineers. You've led large, complex platform or AI initiatives where you were the decision-maker, not a contributor. 

• Deep, opinionated AWS platform expertise. You've designed multi-account AWS architectures and made the call on when serverless is the wrong choice. You work fluently with Infrastructure as Code — Terraform or CDK preferred — and have strong views on observability, resilience, and security that you've translated into org-wide patterns. 

• Production AI systems experience. You've shipped AI-enabled systems — RAG pipelines, agentic frameworks, LLM orchestration, or similar — into production and can discuss the architectural decisions, failure modes, and trade-offs involved. "Understanding AI concepts" is not enough; we need someone who has built and run these systems. 

• AI governance in practice. You've defined and implemented AI governance in real production environments — bias and privacy checks in pipelines, audit-ready monitoring, AI usage policies — not just read about it. This is essential, not a bonus. 

• API design and backend platform delivery. Proven track record designing and shipping RESTful APIs and backend platform components using Node.js/TypeScript. You understand frontend concerns well enough to set API contracts that serve product teams effectively, even if you're not writing React day-to-day. 

• Org-level communication and influence. You can align stakeholders on complex technical decisions, run architecture forums, and mentor other senior technical leaders. You're as comfortable in a board-level conversation as you are in a design review. 

It would be great if you had these to, but we’ll support you if you don’t: 

• Experience building platform components or SDKs that multiple product teams depend on, including the documentation and enablement work that makes them adoptable. 

• Involvement in architecture forums, tech councils, or similar bodies that define org-wide standards — either running them or playing a leading role. 

• Experience optimising cost and performance for data and AI-heavy workloads at scale, including capacity planning and infrastructure tuning. 

• Leadership of major modernisation efforts — legacy migration to serverless, multi-region architecture, or platform consolidation across product lines. 

• A public technical presence — conference talks, open-source contributions, published writing — that demonstrates thought leadership beyond your current organisation.
