Engineering at StackAdapt
As an engineer at StackAdapt, you'll build production-level software that directly impacts our advertising platform. You'll work with modern stacks across Go, Ruby on Rails, React, GraphQL, and more. Our engineering org is collaborative, cross-functional, and built around clear growth paths.

About the team
You'll join the Creatives Platform group-an engineering team responsible for the systems and tooling that power self-serve creative creation and our in-house creative template library.

About the role
We're hiring a design-led technologist to be a dedicated creative template partner embedded with engineering. The focus is to:
Collect Feedback and design new creative  templates across channels, especially motion-heavy formats (Video/DCO)
Bridge engineering, product, and client-facing teams by identifying creative library gaps and translating them into scalable platform capabilities
This role is intentionally design + motion forward, with enough technical comfort to produce and iterate on templates directly.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Design and produce programmatic templates using client assets and/or original concepts, spanning static, animated, and interactive formats.
• Create motion-forward template systems (animation patterns, transitions, reusable motion components) using tools like After Effects / Animate / Google Web Designer (or similar).
• Build and maintain interactive HTML5 templates that work across devices and platforms; troubleshoot layout/behavior issues using HTML5/CSS (and light JavaScript when needed).
• Partner with Engineering / Creative Studio / Product to understand what customers struggle to create, then translate insights into:
  • New template concepts and reusable patterns for our in-house creative library
  • Platform/library capability gaps for engineer and designer to build together (e.g., missing building blocks, controls, animation features, workflows)
• Develop ads creative best practices across channels and industries, and work with the team to apply vertical-specific creative strategies and patterns to inform template design.
• Participate in select customer/CS discussions to validate requirements and ensure templates solve real problems.
• Own quality checks (visual polish, specs compliance, responsiveness, accessibility considerations where applicable, and functional testing).
• Improve template workflows through standards (naming, structure, components), documentation, and experimentation with better tooling-including AI-assisted workflows where helpful.
