Software Engineer

This role involves architecting, authoring, and maintaining highly-complex software stacks for our cloud gaming service. This requires an engineer comfortable working throughout the application pipeline, including hardware accelerated video/audio/data processing, media encoding/decoding, and network transport algorithms. This role requires engineers whose expertise covers optimizing both local system performance (writing high-performance, efficient code with a deep understanding of both hardware and software dynamics) and total system performance (including efficient and effective use of Internet connectivity). All engineers must be comfortable with producing high-quality solutions to business problems in the midst of high ambiguity to continue to push the boundary on what they can accomplish. We provide the freedom to execute, learn and pivot, and the responsibility to be self directed, collaborative and insightful. This gives you the freedom to do your best work and contribute directly to the success of the business.
