We are looking for someone who has an affinity with programming and wants to learn about VoIP?SIP to strengthen our infrastructure team working on our telephony platform VoIPGRID. You would work on our telephony stack, learning to develop and maintain our SIP stack as well as create new features and introduce new technologies. You will be working with and mentored by 2 other SIP stack developers, which allows for a lot of discussion and collaboration. We support telephony over traditional hard phones, a mobile app for iOS and Android and a progressive web app (WebRTC). We are active in four countries (Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, and South-Africa), with servers in The Netherlands and South-Africa (meaning some fun latency issues between servers, databases and customers!) Our customers expect their telephony to work 24/7, so all our infrastructure is redundant. Our SIP stack consists of OpenSIPS and Asterisk, with a MySQL database and a Python/Django web app. We also have a custom Golang application that sits in between the web application and the telephony layer. Last but not least we are slowly moving microservices and other services to kubernetes.
You are someone with experience in programming looking to learn specifically about SIP development. You know at least one programming language but are ready and open to learning more. Troubleshooting and solving problems that come up are things that bring you satisfaction. You will be joining a close team of people who enjoy working together and helping each other out, so there is a lot to learn from each other. You are the kind of person that will constantly look for ways to improve our product and our work processes, and aren’t afraid to give your feedback to the team. Sharing knowledge comes naturally to you, as well as learning from others. If you love open source projects, that’s an extra bonus.
You:
Have a great command of English, our working language
Bonus points if you:
If you know or have experience with Python or Go
If you have experience with Telephony tools such as Asterisk or OpenSIPs
Our stack:
Asterisk
Devhouse Spindle is a growing and ever-changing organization on a mission to connect the world using open and free communication. With almost 60 colleagues, we develop the tools that make this possible such as VoIPGRID, our award winning telefony platform. Alongside our VoIP platform we develop an app (both Android and iOS versions), a webphone, and a browser plugin which allow you to use the platform wherever you are.
Next to the tools we develop, we also connect people through the foundation, 48percent.org and the open source community, the Open VoIP Alliance. Spindle is located in Groningen, a beautiful city known for its innovation and the second fastest growing tech city in the Netherlands.
If you look around the office, you’ll notice we do things a bit different around here:
We organize ourselves using a system called Holacracy. We believe every colleague is able to contribute to the organization rather than relying on a traditional hierarchy. Having no managers comes with extra responsibility to take ownership of your work and set priorities that help to further the organization.
A relaxed and welcoming culture with celebrations, events, and trips
