Description
About TubeScience Labs TubeScience Labs is the applied-AI team inside TubeScience — the largest performance-video company in paid social. TubeScience is Meta's largest creative partner and AppLovin's #1 creative partner, producing 8,000+ original ads every month from a 100,000 sq ft Los Angeles studio, backed by a library of 1.6 million+ performance ads and $2B in annual managed ad spend. That makes one of the richest first-party creative-performance datasets anywhere. Labs turns that data — and the playbook behind billions in spend — into frontier AI tools that actually ship. Our products run in production against real creative, real deadlines, and real budgets every day. The tools that graduate internally become products we ship to external clients.   About the Role Working as a Principal Software Engineer at TubeScience Labs, you will be making direct contribution to our Flawless platform, which processes advertisement assets and allows creatives to easily control every aspect of the ad production pipeline, from ideation to publication.  You will improve and add features, develop proof of concepts for potential new ones, constantly researching the state of the art to ensure we are using the best tools and technologies available. You will be expected to autonomously make implementation decisions, revise plans quickly when needed, while maintaining a close collaboration with Product in order to ensure your efforts are focused on what is most critical at any given time. This role is in-person, in our Los Angeles headquarters.   In this role, you will: Maintain and improve the Flawless platform : improving existing functionality and adding new ones at very quick pace, going from suggestion to production in a matter of days Develop new features using innovative tools: you will need to look into potential components, test them, and integrate AI tools and other technologies directly into the platform. Work across the entire stack : Push into the layers most engineers don't — media pipelines, durable workflows, distributed systems internals — to unlock things that aren't possible at the app layer alone. Research and keep yourself up to date: constantly look at what is on the market and where the technology frontier is, sharing your findings with the team and coming up with innovative ideas for improving the platform Shape the architecture : Bring an engineering point of view to how the platform grows — what we build, in what order, and why. You might be a good fit if you: Have built large-scale SaaS platforms from scratch — making the foundational decisions and living with them — not just joined a mature codebase, and can point to systems you owned end to end. Have shipped products to real customers, dealt with user feedback and with the technical challenges of scaling. Worked on large monorepo-based projects using leading web technologies, such as Typescript/Javascript with modern frameworks (React/Vue/Angular) and Python. Understand the abstractions you build on, not just the API surface — you know what's happening a layer or two down, and you can reason from first principles when the abstraction leaks. Care about quality while keeping in mind deadlines and priorities. Strong candidates may also have: Developed media-specific platforms, such as CDNs, media ingestion pipelines, editing tools, etc. Experience integrating AI into production systems, not just with chat interactions, but using vendor APIs and managing permissions, costs, different models and vendors Experience with DevOps, managing infrastructure and developing CI/CD pipelines Have real depth below the abstraction layer — at least one low-level language (C, C++, Rust, Zig, or equivalent) — and it informs how you build above it. Annual Salary: $120,000–$180,000, depending on experience, with eligibility for a performance bonus. How we're d
