Who we are
JustWatch is the world’s leading movie and TV show streaming guide with over 25 million monthly users. We make it easy to see what’s new and popular on your favourite services or search for your favourite flick and see where it’s available. We currently list hundreds of legal streaming services in 139 countries.
The title streaming data is the foundation of JustWatch. Everything from the website, our TV and mobile apps to public APIs and data exports is dependent on the quality and freshness of our data. The Content team is a group of dedicated and passionate people working together to build the world’s biggest collection of streaming information to keep millions of users and data partners happy.
Who we are looking for
We are looking for an experienced backend engineer to join our Content team and drive the direction of our Partner APIs and Exports. The Content team is working on acquiring data (Streaming availability, metadata, etc.) and serving that to internal and external consumers.
Curiosity, drive and passion are shared characteristics of all people at JustWatch, and we are looking for these values in every person we are hiring. We are looking for people who are willing to constantly learn through challenging themselves and others. All of us also love to get things done and strongly believe in “done is better than perfect”. Dedication to software craftsmanship and a drive for elegant and simple solutions come in a close second.
What you will be doing
- Lead the technical direction of our partner platform (API / Exports / Self-service dashboard)
- Work closely with our Partnerships team on building features for our partner network
- Take end-to-end responsibility over planning, building and scaling the APIs, data exports and embeddable widgets used by our B2B partners
- Assist with technical support for partners reporting issues with our APIs
- Work closely with other internal teams on bigger projects across teams.
What we need from you
- At least 3 years of deep familiarity with the Go language
- 3+ years of work experience in a backend engineering role
- Bonus point for building self-service API offerings or developer tools and public documentation before
- Experience with databases like Postgres or Elasticsearch
- Fluent in English
What we offer you
- No more boring, outdated structures and superficial gym memberships.
- Fun, fast-paced technology. Deploying via ChatOps via Slack. Images deployed to Kubernetes, Prometheus for instrumenting and infrastructure running on Google Cloud Platform. Fast decisions and turnarounds.
- We believe in a permission-less environment that lets us focus on delivering value without overcomplicating things.
- We prioritise meaningful work over perks, and that true fulfilment comes from intrinsic motivation, personal growth, and making a lasting impact.
- We trust our skilled professionals to maintain a no-nonsense attitude and create an environment that promotes innovation.
- We are committed to helping you achieve your personal and professional goals, and we offer a collaborative and supportive environment to do so.
- Truly a hybrid work environment. You are not required to come to the office, but you will definitely want to.
