We are looking for an experienced Golang developer that can help in making sure gamers from all over the world can play their most favorite games without any interruptions. Our service is all about low-latency and high-performance with the company-wide goal of serving 1 billion users by 2025.

Lag during gaming sucks! i3D.net founder Stijn Koster already knew that back in 2002. When he was just a student (18 years old), Stijn set out to improve the gaming experiences of his friends by renting out consumer game servers. By 2004, i3D.net was a fully-fledged start-up. With an office in the centre of Rotterdam, aiming to reach as many gamers as possible.
