About Stream

Stream powers APIs for Chat Messaging, Activity Feeds, Auto Moderation, Video & Audio that are used by over a billion end-users, and are powered by Go, RocksDB, and Raft - with response times typically measured in single-digit milliseconds. We reached a new industry benchmark for scaling real-time chat as-a-service, with 5 million concurrent connections supported in a single chat channel. We’re currently one of the fastest growing startups in Europe and Colorado on our Series B round of $38 mln.

Job Description

Own the media plane of Stream Video as part of the Video team. It’s a modern stack: SFU in Go, cascading to handle very large audiences, ingest and recording fleets, global multi-cloud edge. Video is fundamentally different from request-based services, which means this is not just a seat in Stream’s shared infra team but a genuine Staff role with its own roadmap defined by you. You’d report to the Video team lead with a direct line to the CTO. This is a full-time role; hybrid with 3 days a week in our Amsterdam office, or remote from anywhere in the EU. Visa sponsorship for the Netherlands. Note: Stream is hiring multiple roles (Infrastructure Amsterdam, Backend Amsterdam, Moderation Toronto) as part of this effort. Apply via email at pauli.ojala@getstream.io.
