At Hopin, we’re reimagining events. Our mission is simple: we exist to make the world feel closer.

Founded in 2019, Hopin brings brands and communities together around highly interactive and engaging experiences. We believe that people should have access to the conversations, moments and ideas they care most about, no matter where they are. Through our highly scalable platform, participants are able to learn, engage, and connect from anywhere in the world.

Hopin started as a virtual events solution but we have since meaningfully expanded our offering from virtual events to hybrid and in-person events, as well as video and workplace collaboration products. This growth has been fueled by a series of strategic acquisitions, including: Boomset – an all-in-one event management platform; Attendify – advancing Event Marketing products; StreamYard – unveiling a video production Studio; video hosting service Streamable and video technology company Jamm.

Listed as one of the 2021 Fast Company Best Workplaces for Innovators, Hopin has scaled to 800+ employees working remotely across 47 countries. Valued at $7.75B, Hopin raised a $450M Series D round of financing and is backed by top tier investors, including Arena Holdings, Altimeter Capital, Adam Street Partners, Untitled Investments, XN Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, DFJ Growth, General Catalyst, GIC, IVP, Northzone, Salesforce Ventures, Slack, Temasek and Tiger Global.

The Role

As part of our Content Moderation team, we are looking for a self-motivated senior engineer with a passion for our business, for technology innovation, and for making the online world a safer place for everyone. You will be writing logic in a Ruby backend, integrating with third parties, orchestrating different systems via Kafka, building an event driven architecture, or even exploring the use of serverless in AWS. You can function outside of your comfort zone, and have a structured way of exploring new technologies.

You keep overengineering to a minimum. You love to collaborate, mentor, and learn from each other, and take care of every member of the team. You always leave your ego out of work, and embrace a no blame culture.

Diverse teams are strong teams, and we encourage those with varied identities, backgrounds, and experiences to apply. It’s essential to us that you bring your authentic self to work every single day, no matter your age, ethnicity, religion, citizenship, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability status, neurodiversity, or otherwise.
