Smartly.io is a fast growing team of 130+ building a world-class tool for the largest performance advertisers to automate and optimise their Facebook advertising at scale. We’re a badged Facebook Marketing Partner, and we work closely with the largest online advertisers like eBay, JustFab and Skyscanner. We're based in Helsinki, Berlin, San Francisco, New York and Singapore, we're looking for individuals with a hunger for learning to join our world-class team!
As a Service Operations Engineer, you’ll become an expert in what customers need and in solving their challenges hands-on. You’ll be part of a client-facing engineering team working with some of the biggest and most advanced performance marketers globally. You’ll be a front line firefighter and a system builder, making sure all the valuable information from the customers is being heard and turned into action. You will spend roughly 50 % of your time on development and 50 % consulting and guiding customers.

This role comes with great responsibility and requires a variety of skills: you’ll serve as a vital link, translator and communicator between customers and our equally world class product development team. You will have the opportunity to work closely with our core Engineering, Product and Marketing teams and learn from all of them.
Ideally you can’t wait to get your hands on building processes and scaling things up quickly. Your heart beats for the customer and serving them with understanding and care.

This position is open in all of our offices in Helsinki, New York, San Francisco, Singapore and Berlin.

Service Operations Team
On the Service Operations team, you will provide technical consultation on various Facebook technologies related to Advertising, Pages, Platform and Mobile. On any day, you could be guiding a customer through the setup of a new Facebook advertising product like Dynamic Product Ads, and fixing a bug they found in the process five minutes later. As this team is responsible for making sure that the problems they find will not come back, you’ll get to make the customer’s life as well as our core product better.
None of your days will be quite alike – exciting times guaranteed!

  • Very fluent spoken and written English (main language of the company)
  • Familiarity with AngularJS or some other modern Javascript framework
We're super excited if you have

Recruiting process Smartly.io hires people that are extremely quick at learning new things because online marketing and Facebook as a platform evolve constantly with an incredibly fast pace. Our recruiting steps are designed to give you a realistic glimpse on some parts of the job, but also to test the ability and willingness to quickly learn and apply the fast-changing concepts of online advertising. The process is an opportunity for both you and us to investigate are we made for each other. We always want to find the most suitable position for each candidate, add points of more f2f between the process steps, and the specific role is discussed along the way. STEP 1 Your first task is to return us a homework assignment found here or here https://www.smartly.io/careers/challenges_business. Completing the homework requires learning the basics and even more challenging concepts of the Facebook advertising industry. We're pretty sure you'll find useful information from Facebook Blueprint and our own blog posts and case studies. Also, getting yourself very familiar with Facebook's own tools, especially Power editor, will help you in this and the following steps. It's not an easy task but we hope you show your very best to us, and use an organised structure and precision in your answer. STEP 2
Facebook Advertising Concepts Interview & discussion about your passions and preferred role with your potential new teammates. STEP 3 Smartly.io sales demo simulation in which you are to convince us to start trial with the Smartly.io tool. STEP 4
Discussions with our management team. P.S. Learn more about us in our blog posts: Why Fly 89 Employees to Greece — the Futur.io Offsite and How We Hire Great Business Talent — or check out what our teammate Claudio thinks about working at Smartly.io! Head's up!:
If you and Smartly are a perfect match and you are joining a local office (Berlin, SF, NY, SG), the first few weeks of your employment will be spent at the Helsinki HQ. This is where most of our employees are located (eg all of our developers and product management). You will begin with trainings and hands on work starting the first week. It is the perfect way to get familiar with the Smartly.io culture and get to know most of your awesome new teammates! "In Service Operations we have a mission critical role in ensuring that our customers get the full service experience they are paying for. We are on the front line every day, but also have a long-term role in scaling up the company. We are continuously learning not only how to analyse and plan our operations, but also how to execute fast in a rapidly changing industry. Working in Service Operations provides exciting international experiences, as working at our offices in Singapore, New York and San Francisco is strongly encouraged.” — Patrik Akrenius, Service Operations Engineer at Smartly.io
