SVIP is today serving VGTV – Norway’s biggest web-tv channel with half a million daily viewers with 350 million video plays a year.🔷 ABOUT THE TEAM
- SVIP caters for VGTV original shows, a library of over 400 documentaries, premium sport live streams and 24/7 news and sports coverage. We have recently expanded the platform to Aftonbladet TV, and established a common team with VG and Aftonbladet, in a joint effort to create the video portal for the future!
- We’re a growing team of developers working at the Kraków office (looking for you to join us there) and Oslo where our product manager and designer are.
- The product is based in Oslo (VG) and Stockholm (Aftonbladet).
- We enjoy the alternative coffee during our frequent chats about tech-related stuff.
-
As a member of the team, you will be part of a high speed, inclusive and fun environment where trust, openness, collaboration, and passion is key.
- We are humble and care a lot about our craft, always helping each other to become better at it.
- We test, we fail and learn together.
- You can use 10% of the work time on your own projects during biweekly Lab Day.
- You’ll have a chance to contribute to the Chromecast receiver app and try your hand at making some of our videos interactive using timed metadata.
🔷 ABOUT THE ROLE
-
The SVIP platform has recently been rebuilt from the ground up, so you will come to a brand new and modern product that is carefully put together based on everything we have learned – successes and failures – from the last years to create a great product.
-
Our challenge is to continue on the great work and effort that has been put into the product and elevate it even further, to create a top tier video portal, serving the needs from the brands and most importantly our users.
- Previous work with video or video platforms is no requirement, but passion for online video is definitely something we are looking for.
- SVIP works in close collaboration with Stream team which is Schibsted Media’s central platform for delivering video content that covers all parts of video workflow within media houses – from transcoding and ingesting live video, through enhancing video metadata, to playback and monetization.
