You will own complex features from technical design and implementation through testing, deployment, monitoring, and operational handoff. The role is ideal for engineers who enjoy solving problems across the stack and are passionate about building high-quality products for content operations at scale.

About the Team:

VoD Video Engineering team is the backbone of our streaming platform — responsible for the entire lifecycle of on-demand video content, from ingest and transcoding through packaging, storage, and delivery. We own mission-critical systems that process thousands of hours of video daily, serving a global audience with reliability, low latency, and the highest quality of experience. Our team operates at the forefront of media technology, collaborating closely with CDN, playback, and content operations teams to continuously raise the bar on performance and scalability. If you're passionate about large-scale distributed systems and the technology behind modern video streaming, this is the team to be on.

• Build responsive, accessible, and maintainable web applications for CMS and Content Operations workflows.
• Design and implement backend services, APIs, integrations, and asynchronous workflows using Node.js and/or Java.
• Develop interfaces and services for metadata management, validation, publishing, scheduling, bulk operations, entity replication, and content administration.
• Build search, filtering, reporting, and processing-insights capabilities across content, metadata, and asset attributes.
• Design clear and reliable API contracts between frontend applications and backend services.
• Integrate CMS with RMS and other internal content, asset, video, and platform services.
• Apply distributed-systems patterns such as retries, idempotency, timeouts, failure handling, and graceful degradation.
• Build reusable frontend components and backend patterns that improve consistency, maintainability, and delivery speed.
• Own production readiness, including testing, performance, resilience, security, deployment, monitoring, and operational handoff.
• Participate in on-call rotations, incident response, root-cause analysis, and preventive reliability improvements.
• Collaborate with Product, Design, Content Operations, QA, and partner engineering teams to deliver measurable outcomes.
• Mentor junior engineers through code reviews, technical design discussions, and knowledge-sharing sessions.

• Strong proficiency in JavaScript or TypeScript and a modern frontend framework, preferably React.
• Strong experience with Node.js and/or Java with a backend framework such as Spring Boot.
• Solid understanding of RESTful API design, asynchronous workflows, data modeling, and service integration.
• Good understanding of HTML, CSS, responsive design, accessibility, browser behavior, and frontend performance.
• Experience building complex forms, tables, search and filtering interfaces, file uploads, dashboards, and workflow-driven applications.
• Understanding of databases, caching, messaging systems, event-driven architectures, and distributed-system fundamentals.
• Experience with relational databases, SQL, Redis or similar caching technologies, and query-performance tuning.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, Docker, Kubernetes, cloud platforms, and infrastructure-as-code practices.
• Experience with unit, integration and frontend testing.
• Comfort with production observability, including logs, metrics, & error tracking.
