Gyld is an innovative startup dedicated to enhancing interaction and engagement within live streaming communities, particularly focusing on Twitch. Our flagship product transforms Twitch chat into an interactive, shared cultural game world that includes unique elements such as teams, point systems, special events, and rituals designed to foster closer community bonds among stream viewers. We are a lean, agile company supported by prominent streamers and key industry partners, aiming to revolutionize how audiences and streamers connect in real-time.

This company only accepts applications on Get on Board.

Your Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and deliver end-to-end features across both frontend and backend systems using React with TypeScript and Node.js, complemented by Elixir on the backend.
  • Integrate deeply with Twitch APIs and other live-streaming platform APIs to enable enhanced streamer and viewer experiences.
  • Work on real-time, event-driven systems such as chat bots, live overlays, and event engines to enrich live stream interactivity.
  • Collaborate directly with the company founders to influence and drive the product roadmap and engineering strategy.
  • Ensure high code quality by writing clean, maintainable, and testable code that performs well under scale.

What We’re Looking For

We seek a highly motivated Full-Stack Software Engineer with at least 4 years of experience in web development. You will have strong proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript and extensive experience building modern frontend applications using React as well as backend services with Node.js. Experience with Elixir is a valuable plus. A solid understanding of real-time communication technologies such as WebSockets or pub/sub architectures is essential to succeed in this role.

Fluency in English is required to facilitate seamless communication within our distributed team. You should be culturally aligned with the Twitch streaming community—meaning you actively follow Twitch streamers, enjoy gaming culture, or have experience tinkering with streaming tools or bots. Your passion for live streaming and gaming will allow you to thrive and contribute meaningfully to our mission.

Preferred But Not Required Skills

Additional experience that would make you stand out includes direct work with the Twitch API, developing Discord bots, or creating overlays for broadcast software like OBS. Background involvement in gaming or streaming-related projects is highly welcome. Familiarity with SQL databases, Kysely query builder, or Phoenix Channels for Elixir will also be advantageous.

Why Join Gyld?

Joining Gyld means contributing to a cutting-edge product that is loved by thousands of engaged live stream viewers and streamers alike. We offer a flexible remote working environment aligned with US Mountain Time to accommodate our team’s needs. Our contractor compensation is competitive for the LATAM market, at approximately $40,000 USD per year. As an early-stage startup, you will have significant opportunities for professional growth, impact, and the chance to influence the company’s product and engineering direction.
