What you will be doing

Job duties include building and maintaining Stream’s Flutter SDKs to allow integration with Stream’s core APIs. Your work will be used by thousands of developers and consumed by millions of their users.

As a Flutter Team Lead, you can expect to spend 20% of your time on setting the technical direction of our SDKs, managing sprints, and leading a team of 2 direct reports. You will also have the opportunity to work closely with other team leads and product leaders at the company.

Responsibilities

• DevOps/AWS/Continuous Deployment
• Other technical experience with Go, Python, NodeJS, C#/.NET

• Complete location and working hours flexibility. If you prefer working from the office, working 100% remotely, combining both, or relocating to our AMS office, you have total freedom to choose what works best for you and makes you happy. We’re here to support you in being productive and feeling part of the team, no matter where you are.
