* Optimize the audiovisual (AV) stack to enhance playback consistency, reduce latency, and expand device compatibility
* Contribute to architectural decisions and API designs supporting high-quality video experiences
* Actively participate in technical discussions, documentation, and presentations to share knowledge and align strategies
* Provide mentorship and technical leadership, helping raise standards across engineering teams 
 
 
 

Requirements

* Strong proficiency in C++ and familiarity with Swift and/or Kotlin for mobile environments
* Deep knowledge of decoding, synchronization, and frame-level control
* Experience with video frameworks such as VideoToolbox, MediaCodec, or AVFoundation, and a strong interest in generalizing these into portable C++ solutions
* Expertise in streaming protocols, video delivery systems, and low-level performance optimization
* Passion for creating scalable, efficient systems that deliver world-class video quality to massive audiences
* Excellent collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively across distributed teams in EMEA time zones 
 
 
 

Benefits
