Job Description

WHO WE ARE

At Basis, we empower agencies and brands with cutting-edge software that automates digital media operations. Our all-in-one platform supports seamless planning, reporting, and financial reconciliation across direct, programmatic, search, and social media.

We’re not just building advanced technology; we’re also building a culture where passionate, motivated individuals come together to drive meaningful change. Our commitment to inclusivity and growth ensures our employees thrive both professionally and personally.

With our headquarters in Chicago, we offer flexible work options across the U.S. and Canada, including remote, hybrid, or on-site at headquarters.

ABOUT THE TEAM

Technology is at the core of what we do. Basis is an industry-leading platform that automates and simplifies the entire digital ad campaign process. It processes over 300 billion events per day and uses AI and machine learning across the full campaign lifecycle.

The Core Backend team is the connective tissue that keeps Basis running and lets other engineering teams move faster. We own the health of our core backend, the core customer-facing features developed within it, and the systems and standards that feature teams build on top of — along with the strategy for how the application evolves over time. That includes performance and reliability, observability foundations, release tooling, and the strategy for decomposing the system into well-defined microservices.
If you're energized by platform-level problems, by setting the standards other teams build on, and by work whose outcome is other teams shipping faster, this is the team for you.

Integrity in Hiring

At Basis, integrity is at the core of how we hire. To protect our candidates and our company, we verify identity, education, and employment history for all hires. Some roles may also require onsite or in-person interviews as part of the process. Any misrepresentation of identity, experience, or skills may result in removal from the hiring process or termination of employment. We value transparency and authenticity and expect the same from every applicant.

Anything Else?

Don’t have every skill listed? No problem! We know experience can be built in many ways. If you have relevant skills that aren't reflected in your resume, we encourage you to share them in an optional cover letter.
