Understanding the scope. This Senior Business Engineer - Ads position at Reddit is best assessed through the work described in the employer’s posting, rather than the title alone. The available role overview says: “Reddit’s Ads Business Engineering team works at the intersection of engineering, product, sales and business development. The role helps technology partners, agencies and advertisers integrate with Reddit’s advertising…” Read that statement together with the responsibilities below to understand the likely balance between delivery, coordination and technical decision-making.
