The Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and Landing Page teams define and build features that optimize the way customers browse our inventory and help them easily find and reach relevant eBay pages when searching on search engines like Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc. With literally hundreds of millions of products listed on eBay globally at any time, the scale at which eBay has to consider search engine optimization puts our team in a unique position to innovate and provide immediate value to the business.

The SEO Landing Page Platform holds the buyer intent data definition for our category and model landing pages. These pages serve as important destinations for buyers who come from search engines like Google as well as those who are browsing the eBay site. The Linking Services connect those pages and enable them to show up in navigational elements like the breadcrumb and category navigation. The operational tools provide the interface for manual intervention and eventual automation of those operational tasks. 

We are looking for exceptional Engineers, who take pride in creating simple solutions to apparently-complex problems. Our Engineering tasks typically involve at least one of the following:

• Design, implement, and maintain the linking graph database that tracks relationships between all SEO-managed pages

• Optimize graph schema and data models for high performance on complex queries and large-scale datasets

• Develop automated pipelines to ingest, normalize, and update page metadata and link relationships from multiple data sources

• Build and maintain RESTful APIs or microservices that enable internal tools and dashboards to query the linking graph efficiently

• Implement scalable indexing, caching, and partitioning strategies to support rapid traversal and analytics workloads

• Write clean, well-documented code for ETL processes, data validations, and custom data processing tasks

• Stay current with best practices and emerging tools in graph database technology (e.g., Neo4j, Amazon Neptune), recommending upgrades or migrations as appropriate​

• Architect and maintain scalable graph-database infrastructure to support dataset growth

• Define and oversee health monitoring, maintenance routines, and troubleshooting workflows for high availability

• Establish and enforce data-integrity frameworks—indexing, partitioning, and validation—to ensure accurate link relationships

• Drive capacity planning and forecasting to guarantee seamless infrastructure scaling as usage increases

• Lead software modernization efforts, including upgrades, migrations, and architectural enhancements, to sustain performance

• Champion mentorship and onboarding, sharing best practices in graph modeling, coding standards, and SEO-focused engineering

• Passion and commitment for technical excellence 

• B.Sc. or M.Sc. in Computer Science or an equivalent professional experience

• ​8+ years of software design, architecture, and development experience, tackling complex problems in backend services and / or data pipelines

• Solid foundation in Data Structures, Algorithms, Object-Oriented Programming, and Software Design 

• Architectural expertise in production-grade systems using Java, Python/Scala, Java Script

• Strategic design and operational leadership of large-scale Big Data processing pipelines (Hadoop, Spark).

• Proven ability to resolve complex architectural challenges in production software systems.

• Executive-level communication and collaboration skills for influencing technical direction.
