European TV streaming platform with B2B and direct-to-consumer services
Zattoo operates a dual-revenue model—direct-to-consumer streaming in German-speaking Europe and a B2B TV-as-a-Service platform for media operators. The engineering-focused hiring mix (15 open roles) emphasizes infrastructure (Kubernetes, Docker, custom CDN) and real-time streaming pipelines, reflecting active work on low-latency delivery and server-side ad insertion. Current priorities include scaling custom-built infrastructure, expanding B2B customer deployments, and automating support operations with AI.
Notable leadership hires: Head of Product
Founded in 2005, Zattoo is a European TV streaming provider with several million monthly users across Switzerland, Germany, and Austria. The company operates two business lines: a direct-to-consumer service offering live TV channels and video-on-demand via native apps, and a B2B platform licensing its streaming technology to media companies and network operators across Europe and North America. With 201–500 employees based in Zürich and Berlin, Zattoo builds and maintains its own infrastructure, including a data center powered by wind energy. The tech stack centers on containerized services (Kubernetes, Docker) orchestrated with Puppet and Ansible, supported by C++ and Go backends.
Zattoo uses Kubernetes and Docker for container orchestration, C++ and Go for backend services, Puppet and Ansible for infrastructure automation, and n8n for workflow automation. The stack reflects emphasis on scalable, real-time streaming infrastructure.
Zattoo is headquartered in Zürich, Switzerland, with an additional office in Berlin, Germany, and remote presences across Europe and North America.
