Back in 2005, we pioneered Europe’s first TV streaming service. We’re the grown-up start-up, helping to shape a better future since day one. We’re friendly, international, inclusive – and our people say we’re reliable and transparent, too. Video is the heart of all Zattoo’s services. We build and operate a platform which carries thousands of 24/7 live TV channels, as well as on-demand content from dozens of providers. The systems to process and record all that content is built and maintained by our highly skilled Ingest & Storage team.
As Engineer Manager, your role is to enable your team to do their best. You should be curious about the inner workings of our video encoding and streaming and be able to think and operate at scale.
