Our Culture

Through our intuitive platform, we empower organizations of all sizes to deliver exceptional customer and employee experiences-it's like magic.

  • Design and develop Smart Camera features end-to-end, ensuring scalability, security, performance, and reliability.
  • Collaborate with Product Managers, UX, and engineering teams to gather requirements and translate them into effective database designs and API schemas.
  • Contribute to high-performance video streaming web applications across multiple platforms, focusing on seamless and intuitive user experiences.
  • Foster a culture of craftsmanship where development and quality engineers collaborate to deliver a high-quality experience throughout the entire product lifecycle.
  • Collaborate with team members to define the product vision and create technical roadmaps that align and guide efforts across multi-functional teams.
You're an ideal candidate if you have:
  • 10+ years of experience designing, developing, and testing enterprise-class web applications, with a proven track record to build and evolve large-scale systems from scratch.
  • Deep knowledge of backend and full-stack technologies, including Ruby on Rails
  • Experience in Scala, JavaScript (or other object-oriented programming languages), AWS, and Kubernetes.
  • Solid understanding and hands-on experience with distributed systems, microservices architecture, container technologies, and container orchestration (e.g., Kubernetes).
  • Experienced in setting technical direction, building consensus, and collaborating across engineering organizations to drive alignment and achieve goals.
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines, Agile methodologies, DevOps, and other standard processes for modern application development.
Bonus Points For:
  • Knowledge of camera and video technologies such as RTSP, HLS, WebRTC, Web Sockets, client-side rendering, and CDNs.
  • Expertise in object-oriented programming, with a strong focus on backend systems and database design.
  • Experience with productionizing AI models and integrating them into enterprise applications.
  • Experience building and managing cloud-based infrastructure and services.
