Overview

Join to apply for the Senior Video Software Engineer role at Mux .

Mux is video for developers. Our mission is to democratize video by solving the hard problems developers face when building video : video encoding and streaming (Mux Video), video monitoring (Mux Data), and more. Video is a huge part of people’s lives, and we want to help make it better.

About The Role

As a Senior Video Software Engineer at Mux, you will help build and scale powerful API-based functionalities for our core product, Mux Video. Our video engineering teams evolve our video transcoding and processing pipeline to deliver powerful features that serve a wide range of customers. We have worked on challenging problems ranging from just-in-time transcoding to per-title encoding — and we are just getting started! We are looking for a Video Software Engineer with strong engineering fundamentals that wants to join a fast-paced, creative, and inclusive Engineering team.

What You'll Do

Collaborate with your team on a technical roadmap and product goals
Build the foundations for future media products and features
Help to develop and evolve our transcoding platform to support new capabilities and video quality concerns
Work on exciting aspects of encoding a wide variety of video at a large scale (millions of videos every month)
Design, maintain, and build services and video processing tooling and workflows to enable new features that meet performance requirements
Work with platform and video delivery teams to ensure our features continue to meet core reliability and performance SLIs as we grow and as our product evolves

Who You Are

5+ years of experience in production Backend & Video Engineering using Golang, C, C++, or other similar languages, with a successful track record of contributing to sizable projects from start to finish with end-user impact.

You’re a strong engineer comfortable working across multiple platforms and environments.

Solid engineering fundamentals (CS degree a plus). Strong knowledge of a general purpose programming language (we primarily use Golang, but our video encoding stack has a lot of C++ and C)

Troubleshooting large scale, highly available distributed systems

Prior experience of working in a subset of these technologies (you don’t need to have all of them!) :

Go, C, Modern C++

ffmpeg / libav and / or other open source media libraries

HTTP Streaming formats : HLS and DASH

Packaged media formats (e.g. fMP4, Transport Streams)

If you don't have all of these requirements but think your experience could be a great fit, that's okay! Please apply and we can talk about what's most needed in the role.

U.S. Benefits

Flexible PTO + 11 company holidays

Weekly no-meeting days + quarterly focus weeks

Healthy work-life balance encouraged

Competitive health, dental, and vision insurance (100% employee and 65% dependent premium coverage)
