Real Problems, Real Scale. You'll work on systems handling content workflows for some of the world's largest news and sports organizations. Not demo projects—production deployments where downtime means live broadcasts go dark. These are hard technical problems with actual consequences. Modern Stack, Not Legacy Cruft. We're cloud-native from the ground up. Serverless architecture, AI-powered automation, real-time collaboration—not 1990s broadcast systems with "cloud" bolted on. We're competing against vendors who've dominated this industry for decades by actually building better technology, not better marketing. And we keep winning deals from established players because of our technology. Direct Impact. Small team (10+ nationalities, distributed globally) means your work matters immediately. You'll have direct access to leadership, influence product direction, and see your solutions deployed at organizations that reach millions of viewers daily. Industry Transformation. We're at the inflection point where broadcast media moves from legacy on-prem infrastructure to genuine cloud-native platforms. You'll be part of that shift, working with customers, making decade-defining technology decisions. No Corporate Theatre. We don't do buzzword bingo or endless meetings—direct communication, technical credibility, and shipping products that work. If you want to work on legitimately hard problems with modern technology at companies you've actually heard of, this is it.
