At Hopin, we’re reimagining virtual events.

As the first all-in-one virtual venue for live online events, Hopin brings people together in a highly interactive and engaging online experience that feels just like an in-person event, only without the barriers.

Whether it’s a 50-person meetup, or a 50,000-person conference—any type of event organizer can host a Hopin event for their attendees, speakers, sponsors, and vendors to convene, learn, and interact face-to-face online. We’re spearheading the innovative technology that is enabling people to gather online like never before.

Our mission is simple: better connections for a better planet.

We believe in events without limits, but events that are sustainable and accessible to everyone—and fun, too! To do this, we need passionate builders and storytellers to join us. Do you love people and technology and the magic that happens when they converge at scale? Do you have the skills and experience we’re looking for to better serve our clients? If so, we’d like to meet.

We’ve recently been funded by Accel, Northzone, Seedcamp, Web Summit’s Fund, Slack Fund and a number of high-profile angel investors participated, including Supercell founder Ilkka Paananen, UiPath founder Daniel Dines, Intercom founder Des Traynor, GoCardless COO Carlos Gonzalez-Cadenas and Miro founder Andrey Khusid.

Hopin’s usage is growing at an enormous pace, and production traffic is increasing week over week. This brings opportunity for our video team to drive innovation by attempting to solve big challenges in live streaming such as latency, interaction, quality and scale.

Ideally this person will be located in Europe or America’s Time zone.

The challenge

Today, Hopin serves requests to over a million users and every day that goes by our traffic increases by a significant amount. We are aiming to 100x this traffic in a not so distant future. Building and scaling our video APIs is a critical, integral part of our DNA. Whether other Hopin services are consuming your API or the public is, they need to be extremely fast, reliable and well-documented.
