Product

We're building a greenfield high-load media platform from scratch, allowing you to shape the architecture, choose the technology stack, and make key engineering decisions from the very beginning. This isn't about maintaining legacy systemsβ€”it's about designing and delivering scalable solutions that will evolve from PoC into production

You'll tackle complex engineering challenges around WebRTC, low-latency streaming, SFU/TURN infrastructure, and scaling the platform to 300,000 concurrent connections and 3M+ requests per second. As part of a small, highly skilled team, you'll have real ownership, fast decision-making, and the chance to build rare, highly valued expertise while making a visible impact on the product


In this role, you will

  • Design and build the infrastructure for a greenfield streaming/WebRTC platform, ensuring scalability, low latency, and high availability
  • Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines and deployment strategies to support fast and reliable releases
  • Manage cloud infrastructure and Kubernetes clusters using Infrastructure as Code tools
  • Implement autoscaling, performance optimization, and load testing to ensure the platform can handle high traffic and peak loads
  • Build and improve the platform's observability by implementing monitoring, logging, tracing, and alerting solutions
  • Optimize infrastructure for performance, reliability, security, and cost efficiency
  • Collaborate closely with backend engineers and product teams, contributing to architectural decisions and the evolution of the platform


It’s all about you

  • 3+ years of experience as a DevOps Engineer in production environments
  • Experience designing and building high-load infrastructure from scratch
  • Hands-on experience with streaming, WebRTC, or social/multimedia products
  • Production experience with Kubernetes, including scaling, autoscaling, and troubleshooting
  • Expertise in Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and/or Ansible
  • Experience with AWS or GCP, including compute, networking, and managed services
  • Experience building CI/CD pipelines using GitLab CI or GitHub Actions, along with GitOps tools such as ArgoCD and Helm
  • Knowledge of observability tools, including Prometheus, Grafana, logging, and distributed tracing
  • Strong networking fundamentals, including UDP, RTP/RTCP, low-latency networking, and TURN/STUN (coturn)
  • Experience with load testing and performance optimization for high-traffic production systems


Would be a plus

  • Experience with media servers, such as mediasoup, LiveKit, Janus, or Jitsi
  • Experience optimizing bandwidth-heavy streaming platforms and improving infrastructure cost efficiency
  • Proficiency in scripting with Python, Go, or Bash
