About the role
Keep Media Moving
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.
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.
We are a small but professional team based in Amsterdam, providing an enterprise-grade hosted software solution to international customers. Being a small team means this role calls for a flexible mindset, but it also means real ownership and responsibility over the parts of the platform you work on.
We believe people are capable of more than a checklist suggests. If you don't meet every requirement listed below but think you're a good fit, we encourage you to apply anyway.
Tasks
You will:
Build and evolve features across the MediaLab SaaS platform, frontend and backend
Participate in technical discussions and contribute to architectural decisions
Work directly with customers or stakeholders to understand requirements and test implementations
Review code and test merge requests from fellow developers
Debug and troubleshoot production issues to keep the platform stable
Improve reliability, scalability and maintainability of core systems
Apply a security-first and privacy-focused mindset to keep customer data safe
Explore AI-assisted media workflows, such as metadata extraction, face detection and automation
Requirements
Your skills:
Experience: 3+ years as a developer in application development
PHP: Experience with modern PHP and object-oriented programming
JavaScript/TypeScript: Experience with modern JavaScript or TypeScript
Development tools: Experience with modern development workflows (Git, Composer, Webpack, Docker, CI/CD)
Quality mindset: Strong attention to detail, a thorough testing approach and a commitment to maintainable code
Teamwork: Ability to collaborate with colleagues to ship features together
Communication: Ability to communicate progress and tradeoffs with stakeholders during development cycles
Work permit: You already hold a valid work permit for the Netherlands, we are not able to offer visa sponsorship for this role
Bonus points if you have experience with
Experience with our stack: MySQL, Redis, Memcached, OpenSearch, ImageMagick, FFmpeg, Linux, AWS, Azure
Experience with React Native or Electron
Experience designing multi-tenant, high-availability systems, including failover and disaster recovery
Experience with media handling or transcoding
Experience applying AI in development workflows or product features
Benefits
What we offer
Salary range €3.500 - €5.000 gross per month based on 40 hours
24 days of paid leave plus 8% holiday allowance
Pension via BeFrank
Annual bonus based on personal KPIs

Cloud training and certifications
NS business card or travel allowance
Real autonomy: you set your own pace within a collaborative team
