Job Description

We are seeking a skilled Staff Software Developer to join our team. This role is open in our Amsterdam office (relocation is possible), or remotely (EU or UK-based).

What you will be doing

You'll focus on one of the most used Products: Chat, as well as the brand new Video & Audio API.

A big portion of your day will be dedicated to software design, research, and coding.

On typical projects, you will have a lot of freedom and you will be paired with another team member.

Our team is made up of very experienced engineers, some with more than 10 years of experience.

By working together you will learn from each other along the way. Not only that, you will have an enormous impact!

Our customers have millions of users; they use Stream for mission-critical features such as showing content and exposing the core functionality of their application.

Responsibilities

  • Add new features to the service and find ways to make the existing ones perform orders of magnitude faster.
  • Help make our API service faster, more scalable and more flexible.
  • Write clean, efficient, and well-documented code.
  • Design and write state-of-the-art software, follow best practices, measure everything and be responsible for deployment to production.
  • Engage with customers and help them to use Stream in their app.

The challenges:

  • Distributed databases: we built our own data store for feeds and for chat.
  • Real-time messaging
  • High performance: our API responses are in the 10ms range.
  • High scalability: we use sharding, master-master, and master-slave to ensure scalability.
  • High availability: our entire infrastructure is designed and operated to survive entire datacenter crashes.
  • Multi-region: we deploy our service on 4 different continents.

About you

You have:

  • 7+ years of backend development experience.
  • Proficiency in Go language is strongly preferred.
  • Experience with high traffic and high performance applications.
  • Solid knowledge of relational databases.
  • Experience with building HTTP APIs.
  • Experience managing your own projects and work in a team.

Bonus points:

  • Experience with JavaScript and web development frameworks such as React or Angular.
  • Experience with one (preferably few) of the following languages: Rust, Java, C, C++, Erlang, Node.js, Python.
  • Experience with message queues such as RabbitMQ.
  • Experience with automated testing and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD).
  • Experience with designing and building REST API’s.
  • Experience with cloud-based platforms (e.g. AWS, Azure).
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field.

Our tech stack

At Stream we use a wide collection of technologies to offer highly optimised and available features to our customers. Over the years we have experimented with different programming languages, frameworks, databases, and libraries.

Here is a short list of the technology that we currently use.

Do not worry if you do not master them all or if you do not see your favourite tool or language, you will have the chance to be exposed to most and to convince us to expand the list:

  • Go, Python, NodeJS
  • Postgresql, CockroachDB
  • AWS, Puppet, CloudFormation
  • Grafana, Graphite, ELK, Jaeger
  • Redis, Memcached

Why join Stream?

  • History of success. From Amsterdam to Boulder and Techstars in-between, Stream has raised over $58.25M to build the best Chat Messaging & Activity Feed infrastructure available, with best-in-class support.
  • Freedom and endless growth opportunities. As a rapidly growing startup (since 2020 we have gone from 30 to 150 employees), Stream gives you unique personal and professional growth opportunities. The opportunity of true ownership and accountability has a massive impact on your career. These are the things you can rarely experience in huge corporations.
  • Be on the front line of progress and innovation. While working with cutting-edge technology, we are passionate about tackling difficult tech problems at scale and creating reusable components for them, empowering engineering teams to ship apps faster, more securely, and with a better user experience.
  • They believe in us: Stream is backed by leading VC companies (Felicis Ventures, GGV Capital, 01.Advisors, Techstars, Arthur Ventures), including backers like Dick Costolo (01 Advisors, ex-CEO of Twitter), Olivier Pomel (CEO of Datadog), Tom Preston-Werner (Co-Founder of GitHub), Nicolas Dessaigne (Co-Founder of Algolia), Johnny Boufarhat (Founder and CEO of Hopin).

More Than 6 Months Old
This job posting is no longer available

Job Description

At FindHotel, we discovered early that travel is the one thing that opens people's minds to new ideas, cultures, and ways of thinking. Our team comes from a variety of countries and backgrounds, and share the same passion for traveling and discovering new worlds and unconventional ways of doing things. We're a bunch of independent thinkers, always looking to challenge each other and get better at what we do.

Our mission is to get every traveller in the world the best accommodation deal. From adventure and backpacking to honeymoons and family vacations, we give travellers access to all the information and the available offers for their accommodation of choice. We're a passionate and diverse team of amazing humans who value and respect each other. We're spread between our HQ in Amsterdam and the countries our remote folks work from. We're growing fast! In 2017 and 2018 we've been doubling our business year-over-year, and we've been helping one million customers in 2019 alone.

We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our team. If you are looking to join us remotely, we'll need you to be located within UTC-4 to UTC+6 to reasonably overlap with your team members.

At our core, we build highly performant, scalable and reliable services and components. We work with modern technologies such as Go and Elixir - and, as we embrace the DevOps culture, our infrastructure-as-code in the cloud (AWS) is managed and run using tools like Docker, Jenkins, and Terraform. You will be a part of a squad of bright engineers with a passion for delivering great software, as well as team members from a broader range of disciplines - data analysts and scientists, product owners, UX experts, and marketing specialists.

What you will actually be doing / responsibilities

  • Work in a team to solve challenging problems, integrating accommodation providers and building blazing-fast services that serve their data
  • Identify bottlenecks and opportunities for improvements in terms of performance and code quality
  • Help improving our infrastructure and scale it to support our continuous growth in a cost-effective way
  • Support the growth of junior and intermediate engineers by coaching them in their daily tasks, as well as raising the bar of how things are done within both your team and the bigger engineering group

What can you expect at the beginning of this experience?

  • In your first week, you will get acquainted to the squads, its codebase and the tooling, with the goal of shipping something to production and build confidence early on;
  • In your first month, you will get to know more people from the other squads and disciplines, in order to understand the foundation of the business and the various bits it is made of;
  • One quarter in, you will be effectively an active member of your squad and your teammates will fully count on you; you will have built meaningful relationships within the company and be comfortable discussing ideas, inside and outside of your squad's scope; ideally, you will have presented a topic you are fond of in one of our internal knowledge sharing sessions and/or demoed some work the team did during our weekly all-hands meeting

Typical day activities

  • Team sessions (with your fellow engineers and PO) to check data and brainstorm ways to improve several services performance and design scalable solutions
  • Solve open issues that affect component infrastructure reliability
  • Propose and discuss with fellow engineers efficient solutions for components and architectural design.

  • You have a great understanding of APIs, databases, data structures, queues, and all things back-end, with a strong passion for automation

  • You have a sense of pragmatism, constantly finding the right balance between achieving technical excellence and delivering value to the end users
  • You are flexible, curious, and data-guided in helping us decide what to work on next
  • You engage with your team and all the engineering group actively, sharing knowledge and best practices in order to improve with them every day

What we offer:

  • An amazing team of curious and diverse personalities, with a passion for learning (everyone has access to an annual learning budget to attend conferences or courses).
  • A growing Remote culture where you have a chance to deeply influence the way we work with each other.
  • A competitive compensation package and Stock Appreciation Rights.
  • Flexible time off (take as many holidays as you need) and a chance to work remotely - we measure results, not time spent at keyboard.
