About the Role

We are looking for a software engineer to join our engineering team in Barcelona.

You will work across the whole product — one large monorepo with more than twenty deployable services and applications, actively developed and shipped. You will take features from idea to production: the interface, the services behind it, the data, and the tests. We do not split front-end from back-end between people.

You will also decide what gets built. Nobody hands you a specification or a mockup; you take a real need, work out what it should become, design it, and ship it. Your work reaches users in days.

You will do your best work here if you enjoy owning a problem end to end and want your decisions to matter.

Responsibilities

• Scope, build and ship full-stack features — interface, services, data and tests.
• Design the UI interfaces you build.
• Review your colleagues' code, and have yours reviewed.
• Keep the platform healthy through upgrades and migrations that keep a mature codebase quick to build in.

Requirements

• 3+ years of professional software engineering experience.
• A degree in computer science, software engineering or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
• Strong TypeScript and modern JavaScript.
• Node back-end experience — REST APIs, request lifecycle, authentication and authorisation.
• Depth in a component-based front-end framework. Angular, React and Vue all count equally; we care how you reason about component design, state and reactivity, not which syntax you know.
• Relational databases and an ORM.
• Deliberate use of AI coding tools — real leverage from them, and full ownership of everything you commit.
• Clear written English. Our code, commits, tickets and documentation are all in English.

Nice to have

• Experience working in a large codebase you did not write.
• AWS in depth — ECS, Lambda, CloudFront, S3, Step Functions.
• Live video and streaming — HLS, MediaLive, MediaPackage, MediaConvert, CDN and eCDN delivery.
• Angular and NgRx.
• NestJS and Sequelize.
• Real-time systems — websockets, server-sent events, Redis.
• NX monorepos and GitLab CI.
• Policy-based authorisation.

About the Company

VancastCloudVideo is a SAAS private streaming platform where customers create and host live and on-demand events. Our mission is to provide a centralised platform to meet the streaming requirements of our clients. We are proud of the customer-oriented product we have built so far (and we continue building!) and have successfully streamed 10,000+ events to date.

The Setup

• Barcelona, remote-first. Ideally one or two days a week together in person to begin with, and flexible after that.
• Full time, contrato indefinido. 9–6 as standard, flexible in practice.
• 22 days of holiday a year, plus public holidays in Barcelona.
• €40.000–45.000 gross annual, depending on experience.
