title: API Engineer
order: 5
status: closed
status: active
location: remote (global)

This job combines the coolest language with a slightly less cool objective for an overall attractiveness quotient of still pretty neat.
Specifically, being an API engineer at LBRY involves creating and modifying web-based API endpoints in Go. These endpoints are used for everything from analytics and user databasing to reward disbursement, notifications, and more.
This is the only closed source project at LBRY. Competence in creating sane, secure, and well-structured API signatures is required, as is a mind for security. Strong knowledge of SQL and data structures is also necessary. This work involves interactions with blockchain, but no direct work on the LBRY blockchain or protocol.
[odysee.com](https://odysee.com) is less than a year old, and already a million of people use it every day.
Help us scale our backend infrastructure to meet this ever-growing demand and prepare for the next 10x increase
(and the 10x after that, and the one after that). This involves designing and implementing APIs in Go,
working with SQL databases, managing a Kubernetes cluster, and writing lots of test.
Experience with video delivery (e.g. CDNs, livestreaming) and high-availability systems is a plus.
