The Role

At Zattoo we are building and operating on one of the most sophisticated video backends on the planet: we encode hundreds of 24/7 live TV channels (including the most popular TV stations in Europe and the US), we store millions of hours of content and deliver tens of millions of hours of streaming video to our customers every month. Our systems cover the whole chain from ingesting to encoding/transcoding, storing, packaging, securing and delivering video content. This infrastructure serves linear and non linear video data on a multi-Tbps scale.


All this is envisioned, built and maintained by a small team of expert video and streaming engineers. As a member of that team you are keeping our video backend up to date by maintaining existing components and implementing improvements. There are lots of exciting topics on the horizon (UHD/HDR, low latency streaming, HTTP/2, content aware encoding, AV1, etc) which will be part of your work. You should bring your own ideas on how to further optimize the architecture and help extending the capabilities of our system every day. You should be curious about the inner works of video encoding and streaming and be able to think and operate at scale.
