About Mux

Mux is the video platform for developers. Our mission is to democratize video by solving the hard problems developers face when building video into apps of all kinds: from video encoding and streaming, to video monitoring, and more. Video is a big part of people’s lives, and we want to make mastering the technologies involved as easy as an API call, empowering developers to bring their innovations to life.

We’re committed to building a healthy team that welcomes a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences. We want people who care about our mission, are ready to grow, believe in our values (from "Be Human" to "Turn Customers Into Fans"), and who want to help make the people around them better.

You’ll be joining a tight-knit team with experience at places like Google, YouTube, Netflix, Twitch, Fastly, Atlassian, Twilio, and more. Our founders previously started (and sold) Zencoder, an early leader in cloud video technology, and authored Video.js, the most widely used HTML5 video player on the web. We also organize Demuxed, the premiere conference for video engineers and developers in the world.

You’ll get to work with amazing companies: hundreds of startups, plus established tech leaders like Reddit, Vimeo, Robinhood, CBSi, Discovery, PBS, and TED. Customers large and small love working with us and love our team. And we’re backed by top investors like Accel, Andreessen Horowitz, Coatue, and Y Combinator.

We’re growing quickly and are building something big together. We’d love to hear from you!
