  • Hi. I am Guillermo, the hiring manager for this position and backend developer lead of StreamingGuide. Our mission is to propel justwatch.com to become the premier streaming guide worldwide.

    We predominantly utilize Golang and Kubernetes, interfacing with GRPC APIs from teams such as Content (housing our extensive database) and Martech (for ad display). Additionally, we work with databases like Scylla and Elasticsearch, ensuring seamless operation even under high loads exceeding 5k requests per second.

    About the Role
    Currently, we're tackling challenges like integrating video ads, fortifying against scraping, enhancing response times, and optimizing the click-through rate for our recommender engine. As part of our team, you'll contribute by applying your experience in Go, infrastructure management, and challenge resolution. You will also be responsible for creating a healthy team environment and helping grow colleges with less experience.

    The hiring process
    Following an initial chat with our Talent team, you'll engage with either myself or Martin, our VP of Engineering, to discuss cultural alignment and assess mutual fit. If we proceed, a coding challenge awaits, a collaborative 1.5-hour session where we'll tackle fictional functionalities together. You will share your screen and code on your machine. If needed, we can also provide you with a coding environment in Linux. The last one will be with our CTO Dominik.

    What We're Looking For
    We are looking for experts that are autonomous, with plenty of experience, and feel comfortable with moving bytes all over the place while providing transparency and good communication. You should be able to code in Go, deploy to Kubernetes, and debug production challenges in the Google Cloud.

    What we provide
    Apart from the nice office (feel free to visit us), we will provide you with anything that is required to fulfill our needs. As seniors we expect you to tell us what you need, and we will try to match that.

    How to apply
    To apply, simply click the button below and provide your CV, relevant information, GitHub username (or equivalent), and a brief introduction outlining your motivations, why you're interested in JustWatch, and how you envision contributing to our objectives.
