Mux
Video infrastructure for developers
What they do
Developers struggle to reliably encode, stream, and analyze video performance across devices without complex infrastructure and expertise.
Mux provides API-first video streaming, encoding, storage, delivery, and real-time quality-of-experience analytics via Mux Video and Mux Data.
Software development teams building applications that upload, stream, or analyze video.
Founders
Jon is a former engineer and current startup founder at Mux (video for developers). He built software early in the life of Mux, but accidentally dropped the production database and was made CEO. Before Mux, Jon was co-founder at Zencoder until the company was acquired. He’s proud to say he never dropped the production database at Zencoder.
Co-founder and CTO. Previously worked at multiple companies building large scale video streaming, transcoding, and 3D rendering cloud systems. Liked doing that so much, he decided to do it all again from scratch at Mux.
Founder of Zencoder (YC W'10, acquired) and Mux (YC W'16). Creator of the popular web video player Video.js. Father of 2 kids, 3 months apart in age, same biological mother (figure that one out).
Co-founder and Head of Technology & Community. I'm also a core-contributor to Video.js, the biggest HTML5 video framework, and the organizer of Demuxed, the largest video-focused dev conference/community in the world.
