Who we are

JustWatch provides data-driven digital marketing for the global entertainment industry. From the latest blockbusters and award-winning shows to major sporting events and top-selling console games, we’re passionate about entertainment. As the owners of the world’s largest streaming guide, we have unparalleled access to data and insights on audience behavior and content preferences. We started as a small startup, and now we’ve grown into a strong team headquarted in Berlin.

We’re hiring for the Martech team at JustWatch, which is the combination of Marketing and Technology. We focus on building our own marketing automation tools that help our campaign managers, saving them time, automating their work and even offering them possibilities that the marketing world does not yet have. In addition, we also help other departments of the company also bringing them automation tools and facilitating their work, such as finance or sales.

We are looking for Junior to Mid-level Frontend Engineer to help us build our tools.

• Try out what you deploy instead of spending hours writing tests.
• Take part in defining your own tasks instead of waiting for a PM to hand them out to you.
• Take responsibility in your tasks, owning them end-to-end.
• Over-communicate with stakeholders, users and your own team mates.
• Consider yourself a solution-driven person that can understand your user and solve their problem.
• Are proactive to find a solution, not necessarily the best one. If the best solution will take you three times longer to code it, it might not be the best solution.
• Enjoy being around people. In JustWatch is is very important that you can integrate within the team, if you can’t then you won’t succeed here.

• 2+ years of experience with any modern frontend framework, ideally TypeScript/Next.js. Your own projects count twice as much.
• A communicative mindset. Not only it’s important to talk with stakeholders and users, but also to integrate within the team.
• A strong understanding of interface design and UX. Focusing on simplicity and cleanliness, not necessarily pixel perfection.
• A hands-on mindset eager to solve problems and help your users.
• Good code quality. We don’t want perfect code, we want working code, but we need it to be maintainable.
• Awareness and understanding of multi-cultural environments.
• Fluent in English.

• Building and improving our new Business Dashboard (React, Next.js), which is the main tool that helps our campaign managers.
• Owning not only new features on the dashboard, but whole projects. Dealing with stakeholders and users at the same time.
• Supporting cross team projects, dealing with developers from other teams when necessary.
• Working directly with designers to find out the best UX and UI.
• Helping to make the team better with your ideas.

• We believe in an environment that lets us focus on delivering value without overcomplicating things. We avoid bureaucracy. We treat people as people, not as resources.
• We believe that once you earned it, you can be free to take your own decisions without discussing it with the whole hierarchy.
• We prioritize meaningful work over perks. We don’t have bonuses, we don’t have Urban Sports and we don’t allow pets in the office.
• A strong community culture. We can offer you a amazing work environment where most of us hang out after work. We have events often, being it a big Christmas party or a simple beer.
• A hybrid work environment. You are not required to come to the office every day, but you will definitely want to.
