Who we are

JustWatch delivers data-driven digital marketing for the global entertainment business. From the biggest blockbusters to award-winning shows, major sporting events, and best-selling console games. Not only are we entertainment obsessives ourselves, but we also own the world's largest streaming guide, which gives us unparalleled data and insights on audience behaviors and content tastes.

From a small startup, we've evolved into a 200+ strong team, based in Berlin, around the world, or working remotely. We've been all about building a profitable business while riding that wave of impressive growth.

Who we need

We are looking for a motivated Senior Frontend Developer with a hands-on mentality to support us in reaching this goal.

Curiosity, drive, and passion are the core ingredients we are looking for. We only want people who are willing to constantly learn through challenging themselves and others, and love getting things done.

On our team, we are constantly questioning everything and love challenging goals. We prioritize learning and aim for excellence in execution. We believe in the 80/20 rule and try to apply common sense and pragmatism to everything.

Our Stack

We are working with Nodejs / Vue.js / Capacitor / Typescript / GraphQL stack for both our web and mobile apps - while our micro-service backend architecture is written in Go and runs on Kubernetes.

Our web app is SSR which requires more care and love than a normal SPA. Knowledge of best practices for core web vitals is also a big plus. We developed our TV app with React Native. We are currently migrating our Mobile app to React Native which means Ionic and Capacitor will soon be gone.
