About the Role

The eBay Auctions engineering team is modernizing one of eBay’s most iconic commerce experiences: auctions. This role will help build and evolve eBay’s next-generation auctions platform, a real-time, highly available backend system that powers both eBay Live Auctions and traditional auction experiences. This is a latency-sensitive, large-scale commerce platform where correctness, resiliency, scalability, and customer trust are critical.

Responsibilities

Build and operate scalable, low-latency backend systems that power eBay’s next-generation auctions platform.
Own features and services end to end, from design through launch, observability, and production support.
Turn ambiguous product and customer problems into simple, reliable technical solutions.
Collaborate across engineering, product, design, and analytics to deliver high-impact customer outcomes.
Improve team velocity through better architecture, testing, automation, observability, and AI-assisted engineering practices.
Raise the engineering bar through code reviews, technical documentation, mentoring, and thoughtful design discussions.

Requirements

4+ years of software engineering experience building backend or distributed systems.
Strong ownership and ability to independently drive projects from idea to production.
Sound technical judgment, clear communication, and the ability to respectfully challenge assumptions.
A customer-focused mindset and a bias for improving how the team builds, tests, ships, and supports software.
