  • Write production-quality code in TypeScript, Go, Ruby, and JavaScript.
  • Collaborate closely with frontend engineering and product teams to design and build UI-focused APIs that enhance user experiences.
  • Take ownership of features and systems and elevate them while working with stakeholders around you.

  • Strong foundation in understanding practical operating system concepts around Linux/Unix and a grasp of basic networking.
  • Familiarity with Typescript, Go/Golang, Node.js, Ruby, JavaScript, Python, PostgreSQL (MySQL), RabbitMQ, Redis, AWS, and GCP are desirable, but you should have the knack for learning whatever languages and technologies come your way.
  • Knowledge of professional software engineering practices and best practices for the full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations.
  • Experience in building and integrating APIs for frontend applications like Web, mobile and connected TVs is highly desirable.
  • Strong collaboration skills to work effectively with frontend engineering teams.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Previous full-stack development experience, demonstrating a strong understanding of both frontend and backend technologies and their integration.
  • Passionate about building API and business logic for user-facing application clients.
  • Experience with Backend for Frontend (BFF) architecture or similar patterns.

Why Join Us:

  • Be part of a dynamic and innovative team that is shaping the future of video streaming.
