Rokt | Software Engineers | onsite (NYC, Sydney) | Full-time | Visa sponsorship available

At Rokt, we build products that transform e-commerce and enable brands to get smarter in the Transaction Moment. We’re an engineering led organization that builds event-driven distributed systems in the cloud, constantly growing and adapting our tech stack as we scale.

We’re customer obsessed and strive to build great experiences for our partners and clients. We use cutting edge machine learning techniques such as reinforcement learning to optimize the value we deliver to our partners and customers. We write code in C#, Clojure, Python, Golang, React, Swift, Kotlin and Angular, but encourage teams to pick the right tool for the job and experiment with new technologies.

Rokt just closed its Series D (https://rokt.com/resources_post/rokt-closes-us80m-series-d-i...) and is continuing to invest heavily in our R&D teams in both our NYC and Sydney offices - we’re still remote in the US due to Covid, but our Sydney office is open for business and teams are starting to get together more frequently.

With annual revenues of more than $100M and a vibrant company culture, Rokt has been listed in both Built In NYC's ‘Best Places to Work’ and ‘Great Places to Work’. We’re always looking for great engineers who can build systems and teams at scale as we grow our product and continue to process billions of transactions globally every day.

Let us know if that’s you! https://rokt.com/careers/



Hi Dan,

For a suitable candidate, what would Rokt's position be on 'visa sponsorship' for the New York office? I know the situation is quite complicated in the US right now but any insights would be great.

Thanks, David


Hey David, we help candidates with visa sponsorship as much as we can. Is there a particular role you are looking at?


I was looking at the Senior Software Engineer (Data Platform) role https://boards.greenhouse.io/rokt/jobs/4216960003

On closer investigation, it looks like the emphasis is more on the 'Data Engineering' side over the backend development side.

Although I have 5+ years in Scala + Kotlin backend dev (along with a lot of the tools + tech mentioned in the spec like postgres, k8's and AWS), I'm not sure I would be 100% suitable for a more 'Big Data' oriented role; especially at Senior level.

Thanks for getting back to me on the visa topic!


Of course! Sorry it wasn't a fit for you. Keep checking back, we have a ton of roles opening up in the next few months.


Hi Dan,

Do you offer VISA for the Full-stack / Frontend Javascript roles in Sydney during COVID? I'm currently in Japan.


Yes we do. Is there a role you're looking at?


Yes, I'm interested in,
