Zeppelin | Tokyo, Japan | Senior Backend Engineer | Full-time | ONSITE | VISA-sponsor
Do you like memes? Do you like playing with numbers and theory-crafting or playing with content ranking and economy? We have a vision in which we empower everyone to communicate through memes, not just by creating or sharing memes but becoming a part of it.
At the heart of this product is our cognitive systems which solves problems like video content recommendation, video deduplication, visual understanding, and natural language generation.
You'll be part of the "Feelit" (name not final!!1!) product team and will help build our server-less and micro-services backend systems using sql, ruby, nodejs, and python. You will help scale and maintain our infrastructure on AWS.
We're laid back (I mean come on, we're making a video app for memes) and fun to work with. Although its a stress free and creative work environment we take our features and product releases seriously. Other benefits include flexible working hours, remote working days, extended Japanese holidays, and stock options.
You'll work out of our HQ in Harajuku, the center of pop-culture in Japan. Your colleagues are engineers from all over the world: Japan, Australia, China, India, Mexico, United Kingdom, and the United States of America (point is we're very diverse; gotta catch 'em all).
Zeppelin has a small engineering team in Tokyo and we build Feelit, a video news and entertainment app. There's an opening for a second Android Engineer in our Tokyo HQ.
Feelit is a playground for our computer vision research like video deduplication, visual understanding, video search, and content moderation.

Zeppelin is a digital business firm in Tokyo with a fully funded startup division called Feelit. Feelit is a playground for us to test our research and breakthroughs in the field of computer vision and recommender systems.
We believe that technology can give voice to stories around the world. We empower the people to tell the stories you will fall in love with and stay up watching at a scale.
We're not all about algorithms or trending frameworks. We make room for randomness and non-linear ways of thinking because behavior, cultures, and peoples cannot be evaluated in mathematical terms.
So if your poetry is just as good as your trigonometry then we probably want to talk to you!
One of the biggest gripes of working in Japan is the work culture. At Zeppelin we don't have hierarchies and we focus on creativity not manufacturing. We're multicultural and we also have an in-house Japanese and English interpreter/teacher!
