At Viaplay Group, we entertain millions of people every day through our streaming services, radio networks, TV channels and production studios. We believe in the power of content not just as a way of telling stories and touching lives, but also expanding worlds.

We're looking for the best people to join us on our journey. Right now, we are seeking a talented Frontend Developer to join our new Player Experience Team in the Stockholm office. If you are passionate about creating immersive and user-friendly interfaces for media streaming applications, we want to hear from you! - are you ready to hit play on an
exciting career change?

The role
As a Frontend developer for Player Experience, you will join Viaplay with the mission to further develop and maintain our platform with a focus on developing and improving our player experience on the Web. You are dedicated to making sure our customers have a pleasant and smooth experience while playing content from our Viaplay library. You'll be involved in the whole development lifecycle and everyday work may consist of development, solution design, complexity assessment, as well as testing and deployment for the Player Framework, and Viaplay apps & software.

You will join a new Player Experience team and with your peers, you will be developing solutions aligned with technical and product long-term visions. The team delivers on clear goals based on our customer journey and is autonomous in how to create the best solutions to reach their goals, but collaboration with other teams is necessary. We optimize for the whole of Viaplay and not for the team.

If you are also social and keen on having fun together in our office and outside after work hours, we are a match!

Some of your responsibilities will include:


Design and implement intuitive and visually appealing user interfaces for media streaming applications.


Work closely with UI/UX designers to bring design concepts to life, ensuring a seamless and engaging player experience.


Implement interactive features and controls within the media player interface, enhancing user engagement during content playback.


Optimize frontend code for performance, responsiveness, and cross-
device compatibility to deliver a consistent experience on various platforms.


Contribute to the development of cutting-edge features that elevate the overall player experience, including seamless content transitions and advanced playback controls.


Collaborate with backend developers to integrate APIs, ensuring smooth communication between the frontend and server-side components.


Participate in code reviews and provide constructive feedback to maintain high code quality standards

What we're looking for
We understand you may feel confident ticking certain boxes more than others and that's why we always keep an open mind in our recruitment process. But, in order to thrive in this role, we do believe you'll have at least some experience in the following:

We think you're an experienced Frontend Developer and mainly we are looking for someone with their expertise within the Web. If you have experience working on streaming and player experience, we would be blown away. We would also like you to push forward internal development by sharing knowledge and keeping on top of the latest technologies.

The ideal candidate also meets all or some of the qualifications:

• Proven experience as a Frontend Developer with a focus on web


Proficient in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, with strong knowledge of frontend frameworks such as React and Redux.


Experience in designing and implementing user interfaces for media streaming applications or video players.


Understanding of responsive design principles and the ability to create device-agnostic interfaces that adapt to various screen sizes.


Collaboration skills to work effectively with backend developers, streaming engineers, UI/UX designers and others.


Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail in optimizing frontend code for performance.

It's a bonus if you have:

• Experience in Html 5 player and/ or Shaka Player


Familiarity with media player frameworks and adaptive streaming technologies.


Knowledge of video encoding/decoding, streaming protocols (DASH, HLS), and video playback optimization.


Knowledge of Chromecast


Knowledge of content piracy and security

Our offering


We've got the basics covered (and then some)! 30 days of paid vacation every year and extra compensation on top of a parental pay lift.


Your wellbeing matters. We have an attractive pension and insurance scheme with full health care coverage should you need it.


A safe space to grow and up-skill with the freedom to try new things in autonomous teams. Our learning culture puts you in the driver's seat of your own development, while always making sure you feel supported with regular knowledge-sharing sessions, technical training, mentorship opportunities and peer-to-peer networks.


An innovative environment with Hack Days once a year. This week-long initiative allows you to think outside the box and deliver creative, technical solutions that (more often than not) go on to be implemented, either in our product or our ways of working.


Entertainment is what we love, and entertainment is what we do. So, unlimited access to Viaplay seems only fair for you to get to know the product - including live sports & pay per view events, new release movie rentals, linear channels and more.
