Medior Full Stack Developer (PHP / TypeScript)

<p><strong>Keep Media Moving</strong></p> <p>MediaLab is a SaaS platform for distribution, viewing and storage of media assets, used by broadcasters, media producers, sports organizations and international brands. Think drone footage from a live event, raw camera files from a TV production, or source files well over 100GB, all moving through systems that need to handle them reliably. Every day, content viewed by millions of people moves through our systems, so reliability is a core requirement.</p> <p>As a developer, you will maintain and extend the applications behind our B2B SaaS platform. The platform runs across AWS, Azure and hybrid environments, and we are not tied to a single cloud vendor.</p> <p>We are a small but professional team based in Amsterdam, providing an enterprise-grade hosted software solution to international customers.
