**About the team **
The Core Toolkit team sits within Core Video & Operations and acts as a force multiplier for engineering at Dailymotion. We build the self-serve APIs, platforms, and operational components that every team relies on daily to ship safely and efficiently.
**Our scope covers four critical internal systems: **
-
Administration BFF : the central gateway for all internal operations, with built-in security, request traceability, and full change historization
-
Async task orchestration : the backbone of our micro-service stack, handling scheduling, queuing, and orchestration for all asynchronous and recurring workloads across the platform
-
Feature flipping system : managing 500+ feature flags and enabling safe rollouts and experimentation across the entire platform
-
Operational logging infrastructure : providing audit trails and observability for internal operations
We're a small, autonomous team where each engineer has real ownership and direct impact on how Dailymotion operates at scale.
What you'll do
🏗️ Build and own critical infrastructure
-
Take full ownership of our **administration BFF, ** from security architecture and request traceability to change historization and API design that powers internal teams
-
Lead the evolution of our async task orchestration platform,** ** the backbone of our microservices ecosystem, making it more reliable, scalable, and developer-friendly
-
Scale our feature flipping system to fuel experimentation across all product teams
🚀 Drive technical modernization
-
Dissect legacy architectures and craft pragmatic modernization strategies,** ** deciding what to refactor, rebuild, or strategically leave untouched
-
Shape the technical roadmap by partnering with internal stakeholders, turning their pain points into impactful improvements
⚡ Leverage cutting-edge tools and practices
-
Use AI-powered development tools (GitHub Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT) strategically to accelerate delivery, from development and testing to documentation and debugging
-
Elevate engineering standards through thoughtful code reviews, testing strategies, clean documentation, and active knowledge sharing
🤝 Enable and empower teams
- Support engineers across the organization by providing expert guidance on the administration API, task orchestration, logging systems, and feature management
