About the Role

Twitch is looking for senior engineers to lead new projects on distributed systems for our video infrastructure team. The Video Ingest / Playback Edge team is building a new iteration of our video services that allows instant and scalable video broadcasting in a multi-tenant fashion. Our team powers Twitch and Amazon Interactive Video Service to bring live video to AWS customers.

We are looking for a senior engineer, with architectural design and debugging skills, that cares about scalability, availability and quality to build the next generation of our new multi-tenant video services.

As part of the Playback Edge team you will work on creative solutions to grow our services to millions of viewers, decrease latency of video delivery, and allow new features like an experimentation platform to improve viewing experience. We have a very unique opportunity to shape the future of the video industry and your goal to solve challenging problems will contribute to its success. You will get exposure to all this, while having a fun and supportive culture at your disposal.
