Why should you join Dcard?

Dcard's products have expanded from the card-pairing feature to community, e-commerce, and other services targeting university students and young people.

The team focuses on long-term mission vision and strategy, working together to stay focused on goals and continuously break through barriers.

We need you to provide value to our users in more aspects of life!

About the Dcard Engineering Team

As a member of the Dcard Engineering Team, you will not only focus on feature development but also optimize the developer experience and architecture, and evaluate the adoption of new technologies. At Dcard, you will face many interesting challenges, working on high-traffic products, constantly adjusting and improving the existing architecture to provide smooth services to millions of users. We are -

  • Data Driven - Any analysis and decision-making within the team revolve around important metrics, and product development goals are based on OKRs to measure their value, ensuring that everyone is on the same track and moving towards the same goal.

Consequently, we face daily challenges such as setting up an ad system to handle high traffic or ensuring real-time and fast data updates.
  • Process Optimization - The team pays great attention to the smoothness of processes and continuously thinks about how to collaborate more efficiently. We roll up our sleeves and directly change things that bother us, optimizing the development and life experiences as a whole.
  • Continuous Growth - In addition to regular study sessions, we learn about the projects undertaken by team members in different domains through Developer Sessions within the team. We also invite external members to share successful case studies or development processes from other teams.

You will be involved in the team to...

  • Participating in the development and optimization of data-related products at Dcard, which may involve working with OLAP system development, data pipeline design, and data infrastructure construction.
  • Researching and introducing the latest Data Engineering technologies, such as data warehouse/mart design, data lineage, and metadata management.
