Senior Full Stack Engineer, Script

Remote in the United Kingdom

At VEED, our mission is to make video creation accessible to anyone. No hard-to-use equipment, painful learning curve, or keeping track of multiple subscriptions to take your ideas from record → share. With VEED, you can do this with a single tool.

In just a few years, we’ve gone from one user to millions. From no revenue to $30M+ ARR. From bootstrapped to backed by Sequoia, one of the biggest VC firms in the world. From a team of two to a team of 180+. And we’re seeking more talented, motivated and entrepreneurial individuals to join our growing team.

We are looking for a Senior Fullstack engineer to join the Script team inside the Editor organization of VEED.

The Script team is empowering video creation through the use of text - we're responsible for Subtitles, Translations, Text-to-Speech, Voice Cloning and Dubbing, as well as a set of tools to generate and/or edit your videos through text.

You will be supported by your amazing teammates but also regularly interact with other teams, whether it is cloud infrastructure, rendering, frontend, or backend, given that our products can sometimes touch the whole stack. You will have the opportunity to influence how our features are built and also the team's growth.

As a Senior Fullstack engineer, you will act as an engineering multiplier for the team. You will lead by example for the technical output of your teams, both in terms of code/testing quality as well as creating, monitoring, and resolving alerts. You will contribute to building a culture of responsibility and accountability.

Core responsibilities:

• Ship features and improvements with a high degree of autonomy, supporting other members in reaching the team's delivery goals. 
• Advocate for improvements to product quality, security, and performance that have a particular impact across your team and others.
• Solve technical problems of the highest scope and complexity for your team.
• Provide mentorship for Engineers on your team to help them grow in their technical responsibilities and remove blockers.
• Shepherd the definition and improvement of our internal standards for style, maintainability, and best practices for a high-scale web environment. Maintain and advocate for these standards through code reviews.
• Drive innovation on the team with a willingness to experiment and boldly confront problems of immense complexity and scope.
• Proactively seek out difficult impediments to our efficiency as a team (“technical debt”), propose and implement solutions that will enable the team to iterate faster.
• Participate in Incident Management and customer support reach outs.

We would love to hear from you if you:

• Have extensive experience with React or another declarative UI component architecture
• Have experience deploying web applications and services at a production scale in a cloud environment.
• Are a pragmatic engineer able to make trade-offs between extensibility, optimisation and execution speed.
• Have a successful track record of mentoring and upskilling software engineers.
• Have strong cross-functional collaboration skills. You partner with members across the larger organization, communicate vision and purpose, drive clarity, and spearhead project initiatives.
• Are an effective communicator with the ability to influence both technical individual contributors as well as business partners.

Nice-to-have skills:

• Experience with video and audio technologies
• Experience with Product-focused, fully remote teams

Technologies we use

• JavaScript/Typescript (React)
• Fastify, tRPC and Prisma with TypeScript and Node.js for backend services
• Google Cloud Platform
