Smartly

We are looking for a FrontendDeveloper to join team Kino, the team responsible for building out our video and image template editors. For some more context as to what they build out, check out this (slightly dated but very relevant) blog post, the official support article or this slide deck showing off our new Image Editor.

As part of team Kino, you will be responsible for a flagship part of Smartly's product offering, and will have a massive impact on the company's ambitions for the future. Our customers rely on our creative production tooling to generate tens of millions of advertising creatives, and your future team will be placed in the center of all of this effort. 

We are quite agnostic about technology and always aim to choose the best tools for the job. Our canvas is built using React/Redux with TypeScript with some performance modifications to optimize the React run-time for rendering HTML5 creatives. We use Webpack and Github Actions to build and deploy our bundle to S3.

We will be focusing heavily on bringing new innovations to the editor, all the while reacting to customer demand and feedback. Our templating solutions are in heavy use: during peak times, we've rendered 16 billion (16 000 000 000) images on hundreds of servers monthly.
