Medal.tv
Posted 3 years ago

Medal.tv is one of the fastest-growing consumer applications in gaming! Our users capture and share millions of videos every week, and connect with one another around their shared gaming experiences.

We are an international fully remote team, where everyone works autonomously with the expectations that you can be available for team syncs in the same core hours (9:00 am and 12:00 pm PST). The exact times and days vary per team.

This role is not restricted to one of our core teams but instead is tied to the demands of our platform growth and creators for special projects and features. You will iterate quickly and see which features stick. You'll work with several parts of the stack and work directly with leadership and our community to ship features regularly. Our stack includes React, Electron, C#, and Java. We don't expect experience with all of these, but we do expect you to be able to learn quickly and pick up what you need to know. The majority of work will be in React and our Electron app.

You'll be working with a talented remote team of engineers with a history of working with large-scale applications. Your work will be used by millions of people around the world and help create new experiences for the next generation of gamers. You will be helping us scale the platform to 100+ million users by building high-quality features that our creators love.

As a team, we favor progress, learning, and speed, over perfection.
