Apply for this role Read the detail

01 The role

Huddle is the video-and-workspace product researchers use for the meetings that do not look like sales calls, long, multilingual, document-heavy, resumed days later. You will work across the realtime media stack, the persistent-room data model, and the surface researchers actually open. We hire senior because the work spans several disciplines; we expect you to be strong in two of them and curious about the rest.

02 What you will own

A real piece of the company.

  1. .01

    Own a feature in Huddle from data model to UI, including the realtime portion.

  2. .02

    Contribute to the transcription / translation pipeline used in 90+ languages.

  3. .03

    Pair with the Shelves team on the file-handoff surface (recordings, whiteboards, summaries).

  4. .04

    Take part in the customer-feedback loop, Huddle is used by people who reply to bug reports.

03 What you bring

The musts and the bonuses.

Required

  • ● Five-plus years of professional experience across both backend and frontend disciplines, with a real artefact in each.
  • ● Comfort with at least one realtime media or signalling layer (WebRTC, LiveKit, Mediasoup, Janus, whichever you have shipped).
  • ● TypeScript fluency; React or Svelte is fine, both is better, neither is fine if you can pick up our component primitives quickly.
  • ● A clear preference for written communication, Huddle is built by people who use Huddle, and we are mostly asynchronous.

Bonus, not required

  • ○ Experience in the higher-ed or research sector (the customers we serve).
  • ○ Open-source contributions to any of the realtime stacks above.
  • ○ A second language; we will hire you faster if it is Turkish or French.
