AI-powered creative marketing optimization platform is Looking for:

Our client looks at a brand’s ad performance and explains why some ads work. This engineer builds and runs the system that pulls ad data from Meta and Google every day and keeps it clean, correct, separate for each brand, and fast. If that data is wrong, everything the AI says on top of it is wrong too.

What “middleware” means here

Think of it as the plumbing between the ad platforms and the AI

Day-to-day work

  • Integrations: builds the Meta and Google Ads connectors, designed so platforms like TikTok or LinkedIn can be added later.
  • Pipelines and jobs: runs the daily data pulls, processes webhooks (pushed notifications) without counting duplicates, and manages background queues (Celery, Redis, SQS). Bulk data loading must never slow down a live chat request.
  • Database: looks after MongoDB (indexes, updates, schema changes) and the Redis cache.
  • Security: handles login checks (JWT), access checks for each brand, and keeps passwords and keys out of the code.
  • DevOps: works with Docker, AWS ECS and GitHub Actions to deploy, roll back and monitor. Alerts should catch stale data before the client notices.

Must-haves

  • Python plus FastAPI (or another async framework) in production
  • Third-party API integrations at scale: rate limits, OAuth, pagination
  • Background jobs or pipelines: Celery, SQS, Kafka
  • Idempotency and retries: they should be able to describe a real duplicate-data incident
  • MongoDB in depth (or another database): indexes, aggregations, schema migrations on live data
  • Multi-tenant SaaS experience
  • Redis caching: when to cache and when to clear it
  • AWS, Docker, CI/CD
  • Security basics: authentication vs. authorization, SSRF, injection
  • Has written design docs and led a small team or a large project

Ideal candidate profile

A backend engineer with 3–5 years in Python, coming from a SaaS, martech, adtech or analytics product company, who has built data-sync or integration systems, like “connect your ad account / CRM / Shopify” features.
