Description du poste
Dailymotion is more than a video app; it is a visual conversation in motion, built on a unique algorithm that broadens users' horizons. It brings nuance to debates that animate young people and places listening, discovery, and kindness at the heart of interactions to help build a better and safer Internet.
Dailymotion also offers "Dailymotion Pro", a video hosting and broadcasting solution for professionals across all sectors, and "Dailymotion Advertising", a powerful proprietary video advertising platform that provides a high‑quality, secure environment for brands.
- Opening perspectives – Building bridges between different sides of the spectrum, believing in freedom of speech, inclusivity, and a mix of cultures.
- Building a safer world – Empathy is key to understanding alterity; caring for each other drives us to create a safe community.
- Making bold moves – We are ambitious challengers, making against‑the‑flow choices to create visible changes in the platform ecosystem.
- Creating meaning – We spark joy and curiosity, feel good about what we do, and want everyone else to feel the same fulfillment.
Join a dedicated product team operating in full startup mode, building the next breakthrough social platform. We’re creating something that has never existed before – and we need you to make it happen.
- Iterate at high velocity: experiment, test with our audience, then consolidate what works quickly and learn over perfection.
- Ship features that create real user value, taking calculated risks and smart shortcuts to maximize business impact.
- Build and scale backend services and APIs (REST/GraphQL) that power a world‑class mobile experience.
- Collaborate closely with iOS/Android, Product, and QA teams with a shared product ownership mindset.
- Evolve the architecture (async, event‑driven, messaging) pragmatically to support growth without over‑engineering.
- Drive performance, reliability, and observability with full ownership and proactivity.
- Shape the product culture and push the entire team toward excellence.
You’ll have the autonomy to make decisions, the freedom to experiment, and the responsibility to deliver results. This is not a role where you execute someone else’s plan – you’ll co‑create the product strategy.
Core: Python (asyncio), FastAPI, REST/GraphQL, MySQL, RabbitMQ, Docker/K8s.
Legacy/Bonus: PHP, Elasticsearch, MongoDB.
- Strong backend programming skills with deep knowledge of Python (asyncio) and SQL databases.
- Proven experience designing scalable APIs and event‑driven architectures (queues/messaging).
- Data‑driven approach to decision‑making with a strong interest in analytics.
- Results‑oriented mindset: constantly finding relevant shortcuts and pragmatic solutions.
- Fluent in English + French mandatory.
- 5‑10 years of experience minimum.
- Experience in B2C startups where you’ve seen products grow from 0 to 1.
- Interest in AI and ML applications in consumer products.
- Side projects that show your passion for building and experimenting.
- Experience working in fast‑paced, cross‑functional teams.
- Familiarity with mobile‑first architectures and constraints.
This isn’t about maintaining systems – you’ll be building a social experience with creative freedom to shape it. The ideal candidate has an experimentation mindset, product passion, and genuine ownership. You get excited about A/B test results and user metrics because you want to see your work in millions of hands. If you see code as a craft but features as the art, this role is for you.
