At Viaplay Group, we entertain millions of people every day through our streaming services, radio networks, and TV channels. We believe in the power of content not just as a way of telling stories and touching lives, but also expanding worlds.
We’re looking for the best people to join us on our journey. Right now, we’re searching for a Frontend Developer, who is eager to learn and explore Smart TV applications, as part of our Antipiracy team, in our Stockholm office.
If you are passionate about creating immersive and user-friendly interfaces for media streaming applications, we want to hear from you!
The Role
As a Frontend Web & Smart TV developer at Viaplay Group, you’ll play a key role in shaping and enhancing our Web based applications. From design and development to testing and deployment, you’ll be involved in the full product lifecycle, helping us deliver high-quality, user-friendly experiences across our platforms.
You will join a cross-functional team of developers, working autonomously and driven by metrics, to deliver solutions aligned with our long-term product and technical vision. We build our entire product in-house, using both native and cross-platform languages. We believe in staying at the forefront of technology, continuously learning and challenging the status quo.
What we’re looking for
We understand you may feel confident ticking certain boxes more than others and that’s why we always keep an open mind in our recruitment process.
We are looking for a passionate and experienced developer with a genuine interest in frontend development, and if you have experience in working with TV applications, we would be blown away. You thrive in a high energy, team-driven environment where you love getting stuff done and having fun while you are doing it. In order to thrive in this role, we do believe you’ll have at least some experience in the following:
- Proficiency in JavaScript and TypeScript
- Experience with React and Redux
- Familiarity with Next.js (SSR/CSR, routing, and server integration)
- Understanding of hybrid SSR/CSR architectures
- Good experience writing unit tests and end-to-end tests
It’s a bonus if you have:
- Experience with Smart TV applications
- Familiarity with the AWS ecosystem and core services
- Experience working with UX/UI designers and user-centered product development.
- Experience in the media or streaming industry.
What we offer you
- We’ve got you covered! 30 days of paid vacation every year, an attractive pension and insurance scheme, and generous parental leave pay lift.
- Your wellbeing matters. We provide you with various wellbeing initiatives including wellness allowance.
- Flexibility that works. We follow a hybrid model with three days a week in the office and the rest remote, giving you the best of collaboration and focus time.
- A safe space to grow and up-skill. Our learning culture puts you in the driver’s seat of your own development.
- An innovative environment with Hack Days once a year. This week-long initiative allows you to think outside the box and deliver creative, technical solutions that (more often than not) go on to be implemented, either in our product or our ways of working.
- Entertainment is what we love, and entertainment is what we do. So, unlimited access to Viaplay seems only fair for you to get to know the product – including serier & viewing events, new release movie rentals, linear channels and more.
