JustWatch

This is a cool opportunity as I found my role at JustWatch in a Who is hiring thread like this one ~4 years ago, it’s great to be able to extend this to someone else to join my team. Company - JustWatch delivers data-driven digital marketing for the global entertainment business. From the biggest blockbusters to award-winning shows, major sporting events, and best-selling video games. Not only are we entertainment-obsessed ourselves, but we also run the world's largest streaming guide, giving us unparalleled insights into audience behaviors and content tastes. You - We are looking for someone with 4+ years of experience ideally in the context of a high-traffic website with a substantial user base. Experience with a modern JS framework, TypeScript, Webpack & Vite, performance monitoring and improvements. Someone with a side project/startup (in-development or live) or entrepreneurial spirit. Role - The site is built with Vue.js, Node.js, GraphQL and a Go + Kubernetes BE. You'll be working creating, architecting, designing many of the underlying systems we use, improving and maintaining the performance of the site which requires an understanding of the JS framework down to our caching setup and communication with multiple in-house services. A direct 1:1 skill and experience match isn’t a requirement. If you describe yourself as hard working, learning through chaotic action, and with a focus on creation then do apply. At JustWatch there’s really a culture of ask forgiveness rather than permission. We’ve got a fast pace of development from features, experiments, and client requests but also a huge respect and attribution of autonomy, trust, and responsibility. All of us on the team have our tasks that we take full ownership of bringing to the finish line while also having side projects we believe are important for the development of the project. If you believe something could and should be done, you can just start doing it. The team is filled with eager and talented members who would love to learn from your expertise and who I’m sure you’d get to learn from too. I’m the team lead of the FE and mobile teams and you’d be joining the FE team.
