  • Job Summary

    In this role, you will develop the backend of a TypeScript monorepo, establish contract structures, manage Kafka, Go, and Kubernetes integration, while scaling and maintaining the recording pipeline.

    Job Technologies

    Your role in the team

    • Own parts of the product backend: a TypeScript monorepo on serverless edge infrastructure with Postgres, covering recordings, clips, consent, entitlements, payouts, and community.
    • Build and maintain the seam between our Go/Kubernetes recording pipeline and the product: Kafka consumers, idempotent and out-of-order tolerant webhook ingestion, a gRPC control plane for consent and playback, and analytics reads from ClickHouse.
    • Help scale the pipeline from dozens to thousands of concurrent recordings - worker fleet capacity, memory budgets, segment spool windows, consumer throughput, egress strategy, and retention/deletion machinery.
    • Contribute to a new, greenfield analysis pipeline that transcribes, classifies, and labels VOD content to make it searchable and licensable.
    • Own the operations of what you build: dashboards, alerts, error budgets, deploy discipline, incident response, and postmortems.
    • Work with typed, contract-first systems - protobuf events with cross-language parity tests, shared schemas across backend, web, and app.
    • Direct AI coding agents as part of your default workflow, reviewing their output and building the guardrails (tests, CI gates) that keep it safe to move fast.

    Our expectations of you

    Qualifications

    • You have operated what you built - real systems that ran, broke, and got better because of you.
    • Starke TypeScript-Kenntnisse, mit Neugier auf Go.
    • Comfortable with Postgres and at least one of Kafka, ClickHouse, or Kubernetes.
    • You think in contracts, idempotency, and failure modes by reflex, not by checklist.
    • You want real ownership - and its counterpart, accountability.
    • Clear written communication - you can explain a decision so the next person doesn't have to re-derive it.
    • Vertrautheit mit contract-first / schema-gesteuerter Entwicklung (protobuf, gRPC).
    • Comfort working alongside AI coding agents as a core part of the engineering workflow.

    Experience

    • Experience reading or writing Go in production systems.
    • Experience operating distributed, event-driven infrastructure (Kafka, Kubernetes) at scale.

    What we offer

    • A micro team (two or three people who own a whole system end to end), full remote work from anywhere with European working-hours overlap, real ownership from week one, and direct feedback from founders you'll talk to daily.
    • You will work with an operational product and real users already in early access, with exceptional leverage per person thanks to AI-native tooling and robust infrastructure – no committees, no theatrics, no ops team to throw things over the wall to.
    • Annual gross salary for this position ranges from €65,000 to €95,000 (full-time, permanent employment, remote within European time zones).
    • Exact positioning within the range depends on seniority and production experience with distributed systems.
    • Depending on the type of employment and country, we're open to negotiate.
