Our team is at the heart of our success. You’ll be part of a culture where everyone is respected, included, and encouraged to grow. We value continuous learning, uphold a high work ethic, and have fun along the way.

About The Team:

The Supply Selection Visuals (SSV) Team works on building the solutions that turn our merchant designs into beautiful and realistic mockups, and mapping the design from what’s created within the limited realm of browser into large high-resolution graphics that can be sent to our suppliers without losing any detail - while still retaining low latency and stability.

About The Role:

As a Rust / Graphics Engineer, you will play a key role in developing a scalable, high-performance rendering engine for both 2D and 3D graphics. Whether it’s rasterization, vector graphics, physically based rendering (PBR), or color blending modes, you will be working at the heart of our graphics pipeline.

Your Daily Tasks Will Entail:

• Build and optimize rendering systems that generate high-quality output for both digital and print formats
• Work with color science — from ICC profiles to gamma correction to math of light reflection, and everything in between
• Implemented and refine rendering algorithms, from efficient PDF parsing and rendering to real-time and offline PBR workflows
• Push the boundaries of Rust in graphics programming, leveraging its safety guarantees, powerful ADTs, and expressive pattern matching
• Develop innovative solutions for rendering complex mockups, blending modes, and compositing
• Collaborate with a team of engineers and designers to make high-quality rendering efficient, scalable, and maintainable
• Work alongside the product teams and product managers to iterate on new features
• Take responsibility for the design and execution of your own initiatives
• Help identify areas of improvement in the codebase and help contribute to making it better
• Frequently pair with teammates to give and receive feedback from a code review to boost knowledge-sharing & learning in order to improve the platform
• Fix any prioritized bugs/issues tracked within the platform
• Participate as a presenter or attendee in weekly coding or knowledge-sharing sessions
• Learn & develop your soft skills and spend time discussing best practices and technologies with your peers
  
  
  

Your Qualifications:

• Good level of English (spoken and written)
• 4+ years of experience in programming graphics (be it game development, data visualizations or hardware projects involving displays or digital signage)
• 1+ years of experience with Rust
• Quality-oriented: follow best practices (Testing (ideally TDD), continuous integration/deployment, Agile methodologies) and SOLID principles
• Experience with CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation), DDD (Domain-Driven Design) and in architecting new systems or refactoring legacy systems would be considered an advantage, but not a prerequisite.
