• Design, develop and maintain our YouTube publishing automation application, used to scale publishing of our videos to our hundreds of YouTube channels.
• Design, develop and maintain our custom media asset management system, and all its related pipelines and automations.

Qualifications

• Minimum 5 years of experience as a software engineer in a fast‑paced and technically demanding environment.
• Hacker mindset (test often, ship often, be pragmatic), not afraid to dig into new areas that you’re not familiar with.
• Experience with LLMs and agentic workflows is a plus.
• Interest in application and cloud security best practices.
• Strong skills in Node.js / Typescript.
• Strong skills in Python/Flask.
