Samba is a media intelligence company. We know what the world is watching, reading, and thinking about — in real time, at scale, across every screen. Our data exists with the consent of over a billion people, organized into the most complete picture of consumer attention ever built. The biggest brands in the world use that picture to make smarter decisions. We think it’s the most interesting data asset on the planet, because it’s the most culturally relevant.
We are looking for a Junior Software Engineer to join our Data Integration team in Amsterdam. The Data Integration team builds and operates the platform that moves data into, through, and out of Samba TV: ingestion from clients and partners, processing and enrichment against our identity and signal layers, and distribution to downstream destinations. This is a foundational platform investment, built to scale with the next generation of data partnerships and to power agentic, self-service data workflows.
In this role, you will build and maintain production-grade data systems, taking ownership of well-defined components and receiving direction on new or ambiguous work from your senior peers. You bring 2+ years of professional software engineering experience with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field (or an advanced degree without prior experience, or equivalent), a curiosity for data infrastructure, and a desire to grow quickly in a collaborative, technically strong team. You will work on features of moderate scope that require judgment across a variety of factors, modify approaches as needed, and deliver against well-defined components of large-scale data platforms while continuing to deepen your craft.
Base salary is just one component of Samba total compensation package for employees. Other rewards may include bonuses, short-term incentives, and long-term incentives. In addition, Samba provides health insurance, wellness offerings, life and disability insurance, a retirement savings plan, paid holidays and paid time off (PTO), and other employee benefits.
Samba is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. We strive to empower connection with one another, reflect the communities we serve, and tackle meaningful projects that make a real impact.
