Senior Search Engineer (remote, Europe)

Remote — Data Team, Search Domain — Full-time

Modash gives brands the tools to work with the right content creators and helps creators earn a living doing what they love. Behind the scenes, we’re building the world-class data platform that powers creator discovery for thousands of companies — and we’re looking for a hardened Senior Search Engineer to shape the direction of the creator economy.

🚀 What your day-to-day will look like

We’re not a service function — Data & Backend Engineering are core product capabilities at Modash, building products for customers to use. Search is a specialised sub-team of backend engineering, and you’ll own projects end-to-end, from idea to launch.

Here’s a typical day :

• Start your day with a short standup
• Heads-down focus time to design, build, and optimise large-scale search systems
• Minimal meetings — maximum ownership
• Collaborating with backend, data, and product teams to deliver impactful features
• Continuously improving search accuracy, speed, and scalability

You’ll be working on big, impactful projects like :

You won’t be patching pipelines — you’ll be creating production-ready search products from scratch that directly impact customers.

👥 The Data Team

At Modash, search is a joint effort between the data and backend engineering teams. You’ll work closely with :

We work in two closely aligned teams :

We value autonomy, but we also love to work closely as a team — through pair programming, reviews, and shared wins. You’ll collaborate with the CEO, CTO, engineers, sales, and even customers to shape what we build. Everyone takes ownership, but nobody works in isolation.

We’re remote-first, but we connect IRL at regular team offsites to collaborate, reflect, and have fun.
