Tasks in the role

We are looking for a Senior Integration Platform Engineer to own and evolve the core integration and data backbone that underpins GTM Analytics, Enterprise-grade AI tooling, and Business-critical data flows across Semrush. This is a global, high-trust engineering role with real ownership. You will design and operate secure, scalable cloud services and data integrations used across regions and teams, including regulated, SOX-relevant data flows (e.g. global compensation feeds). You will also play a key role in supporting post-acquisition integration work with Adobe. This role partners closely with Analytics, Go-To-Market Engineering, Security, and Finance - without owning GTM systems directly.

What you’ll do

• Design, build, and operate production APIs and cloud services (REST and/or gRPC) on Google Cloud Platform
• Own Cloud Deployed Solutions/Scripts (Cloud Run, Docker etc.) that power integration, provisioning, and internal enablement platforms
• Build and maintain secure, event-driven integration patterns (Pub/Sub, async workflows)
• Own business-critical data integrations, including global compensation and finance-adjacent feeds with SOX relevance
• Design and enforce security and access boundaries (IAM, secrets, service-to-service auth, cloud ↔ on-prem connectivity)
• Drive cost-efficient cloud execution, including batching, async processing, and pricing-aware architecture decisions
• Build and operate enterprise-grade AI services, with clear cost, latency, and quality trade-offs
• Design reliable data ingestion patterns that support analytics, executive reporting, and downstream consumers
• Act as primary owner for integration infrastructure and enterprise AI tooling for the RevOps team
• Act as secondary owner for analytics pipelines to ensure coverage and eliminate single points of failure
• Lead operational ownership: monitoring, alerting, incident response, root-cause analysis, and audit readiness

How you’ll collaborate

• Partner with Analytics Engineering and Analytics teams to ensure stable, well-governed data flows
• Enable Go-To-Market Engineering teams through reliable APIs, integrations, and automation primitives (without owning GTM systems)
• Work with Security, Finance, and Legal stakeholders on access control, auditability, and compliance-relevant systems
• Support global teams across regions and time zones

What we’re looking for

Core engineering experience

• Senior backend / platform engineer with strong systems thinking
• Proven experience owning production, business-critical systems end-to-end
• Strong Python, Go, or JavaScript engineering background
• Hands-on experience building and operating production data warehouse tables (BigQuery or similar), with strong SQL and a focus on reliability, performance, and AI-ready data design
• API design experience with attention to contracts, versioning, and backward compatibility
• Experience with event-driven and asynchronous architectures

Data engineering fundamentals (required)

• Strong grounding in data engineering principles, including:
• schema evolution and data contracts
• idempotent ingestion, replayability, and backfills
• batching and late-arriving data
• protecting downstream analytics and reporting consumers

Experience operating data pipelines that support executive, financial, or compensation reporting. Comfort working in environments with auditability, controls, and change discipline (SOX familiarity is a plus).

GCP & infrastructure

• Hands-on experience with GCP (Cloud Run, Cloud Functions, Pub/Sub)
• Hands-on experience with Google Cloud Container tools (Cloud Run, GKE, Artifact Registry, Docker)
• Experience with IAM, least-privilege access, and secrets management
• Infrastructure-as-code (Terraform or equivalent)
• Observability: logs, metrics, alerts, SLIs/SLOs
• Experience with orchestration tools such as Apache Airflow is a plus

AI-native engineering (must-have)

• Native, daily use of AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or equivalent
• Experience applying AI tools to:
• production code development and refactoring
• debugging and incident analysis
• architectural trade-off evaluation

Experience assessing LLM cost economics, including:

• model selection trade-offs (latency, quality, cost)
• batching and token-efficiency strategies
• build vs buy decisions for AI-powered workflows

Proven judgment shipping LLM-powered functionality in production-safe, cost-aware systems.

Business context & judgment (required)

• Demonstrated ability to reason about business impact, not just technical correctness
• Experience working with or adjacent to Sales, RevOps, or Finance teams, where data quality or availability affected revenue, incentives, or compensation
• Comfort translating business requirements into robust, auditable technical systems
• Strong judgment balancing speed, cost, risk, and correctness

What success looks like

• Integration and analytics-enabling systems are stable, secure, and auditable
• Enterprise AI tooling is production-ready and cost-controlled
• Analytics and partner teams move faster without platform fragility
• No single-point-of-failure dependencies exist
• Adobe integration progresses without disruption to core analytics or business reporting

What this role is not

• Not an owner of Go-To-Market systems
• Not a pure analytics or SQL/dbt modeling role
• Not a DevOps-only or infra-only position

This is a senior, high-ownership integration and platform role with global scope and clear business impact.

The annual Total Cash Compensation salary range for this position is $128,126 to $189,626. Actual pay within this range depends on several factors, including work location and individual qualifications.

Our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion commitments

Semrush is an equal opportunity employer. Building a better future for marketers around the world unites people from all backgrounds. Even if you feel that you don’t 100% match all requirements, don’t be discouraged to apply! We are committed to ensure that everyone feels a sense of belonging in the workplace. We do not discriminate based upon race, religion, creed, color, national origin, sex, pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, ancestry, physical or mental disability, or medical condition including medical characteristics, genetic identity, marital status, military service, or any other classification protected by applicable local, state or federal laws.

Our new colleague, we are waiting for you! At Semrush, we take a serious and comprehensive approach to hiring new people. We welcome those who are professionals in their field and passionate about their work to join our team. A “five-minute interview” or “get a job in three clicks” approach is not the way we work. During the interview, we ask candidates to talk about themselves and their background in detail. We try to discover the most important aspects about the way someone works and their personality before a job offer is made.

Up to 3 days Once the resume is received it will be reviewed by a member of the Talent Acquisition team. We try to provide feedback within three working days.

Flexible approach for an interview format

We’re flexible and open for both online interviews and personal meetings at the offices. Choose the option that’s most suitable for you! In order for the online meetings to be productive, we suggest following these tips to make sure you are set up well:

• Join the interview from a laptop or desktop computer (not a smartphone). You may need to print something or present your screen during the interview.
• Please turn on your camera. Visual communication is especially important for us.
• Choose a quiet place to talk. Attending an interview from the street is not a good idea.
• Keep your phone at hand in case there are technical issues that mean we have to continue the interview by direct call.

Good luck!
