Description

Developer experience is First at Filmhub, embracing cutting edge frameworks and tools. We ship often and make deployments fast, which keeps us on our toes. Filmhub engineers have full ownership of what we build from beginning to end — not just a small slice of it. New team members deploy their first feature within their first few days, making a tangible change they own early on and all the time. At Filmhub, you will be a product engineer - someone who solves real customer problems through a smart and efficient application of your technical knowledge and your tools. You’ll be part of our multidisciplinary product team, where you will build both backend and frontend systems and work closely with design, product management, and data engineering. We’re facing many exciting challenges. We’re building the first platform to take the whole film distribution online, where your expertise can be applied to areas such as building beautiful movie listings, marketplace, search, digital video workflows, and machine learning, to name a few.
