Creative Developers, have a look

Creative Developers - Join our adventure!

We are growing and are looking for a creative  developer to join our adventure in building the next generation of video experiences. Revolutionizing how video is experienced allows us to take full ownership of the video viewing experience element; the video player in any app using video. This opens a world of fantastic opportunities, and also the need for clarity, best practices, intelligently designed platform API’s and everything a developer would need to successfully enter the future of interactive video with Movi. 

We are looking for an experienced, creative  developer who can help us create the best video products ever, and help deliver the overall developer experience. An imperative role in building delightful products for developers to thrive, and ultimately realise their dreams for their best end-user experience of their video products and services. 

Why you should join our adventure in Movi?

Movi is dedicated to create a world where people and video are magically fused together. We empower anyone with the freedom to explore and interact with wonderful stories and inspirational moments in a new, exciting and immersive way. We are always guided by making the most fantastic end-user experience, with a core belief in creative freedom for you and me to create our own realities, with our creative minds and our fingers.

Global demand for mobile video services will grow to a worldwide revenue of $25 Billion by 2021. Growth in mobile video revenue will be driven by advertisers seeking to reach an increasing audience of users that are consuming video on their smartphones and tablets. It is also estimated that users of mobile video will more than double to 2 Billion users by the end of 2022, equal to 36 percent penetration among the global mobile users.

Video is moving rapidly away from the static mass viewing experience it once was. Today’s fragmented audience requires a much more engaging, personal dialogue with individual viewers in the ways that they demand — at their convenience, on their chosen device, and under their control. That’s where you come in:
