StreamKick (<a href=") | Full-stack developer | Orlando, FL | Co-founder, REMOTE
At StreamKick we're building the best way for viewers to find and connect with live-streamers and content creators. Whether it's Twitch, Mixer, YouTube, or Facebook, our aim is to take the friction out of discovery and help build meaningful gaming communities the world over.
If live-streaming, gaming, or esports excites you, we're smack in the middle of it all. We're looking for a full-stack developer to join us as a co-founder, sail across the launch line, and join us as we create a new segment in this industry.
What you'll do:
- Join our team in a technical and product leadership role
- Work with a tech stack that includes Rails, PostgresSQL, AWS, Zurb, and JS
- Architect efficient and creative solutions to scale our back-end systems
- Develop and refine a recommendation algorithm using user defined variables and external data sources
- Integrate core components from industry leading streaming platforms' APIs (Twitch, Mixer, YouTube, Facebook, etc.)
- Work in tandem with our front-end dev/designer to bring the back-end to the viewer
- Deploy your own code
- Operate freely and on your own schedule within a defined product roadmap
What you should have:
- Experience building and scaling back-end systems
- Self-motivation - this is a start-up
- At least a passing interest / understanding of live-streaming and video games (no - Super Mario Bros. doesn't count)
Bonus points
- Experience with Angular JS
- Experience with React JS
- Experience in an after-hours, remote start-up environment
Equity is negotiable based on career and industry experience. Hit us up! (REDACTED_EMAIL)
