    Senior Software Engineer - Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom - Roku

    Default job background
    Description
    Teamwork makes the stream work.

    Roku is changing how the world watches TV

    Roku is the #1 TV streaming platform in the US, and we've set our sights on powering every television in the world.

    Roku pioneered streaming to the TV. Our mission is to be the TV streaming platform that connects the entire TV ecosystem.

    We connect consumers to the content they love, enable content publishers to build and monetize large audiences, and provide advertisers unique capabilities to engage consumers.

    From your first day at Roku, you'll make a valuable - and valued - contribution. We're a fast-growing public company where no one is a bystander.

    We offer you the opportunity to delight millions of TV streamers around the world while gaining meaningful experience across a variety of disciplines.

    About the team

    This team spends most of its time working on customer focused features that improve the user experience, from content discovery and search to Roku pay and subscription to embedded software and firmware, and much more.

    Our product roadmap helps us accelerate our growth and scale, putting surprising new features into the hands of tens of millions of Roku users worldwide.

    Our developers and engineers are owners.

    They are motivated from within, finding and taking on a feature or project simply because that problem needs to be solved and shipped.

    But that individual must work together with different engineering teams, UI design, product teams, and business leadership to make things happen, which means that engineers succeed here because they can maintain that independent spirit and motivation within a deeply collaborative environment.

    We are the pragmatic dreamers inventing and re-inventing the world of streaming media.
    About the role
    Roku pioneered streaming to the TV and continues to innovate and lead the industry.

    While we are well-positioned to help shape the future of television and streaming media worldwide, continued success stems from experienced software engineers like you developing core features for the Roku platform.

    Our new Senior Software Engineer, Embedded will be contributing extensively to our embedded UI development, algorithm implementation for complex features to make it more user intuitive and underlying architecture.

    You will be working closely with product management to understand new features or extending current features for international market needs, development using modern C++ libraries/frameworks, scripting language and integration of third-party code.

    You will also be engaged in developing tools which can help larger development community within Roku. A proven track record of shipping high-quality software on embedded platforms is essential.

    This is a great role for a senior professional who enjoys a high level of visibility and thrives on great business impact.

    The features and performance improvements you implement directly impact millions of users every day.

    This is a great role for an experienced professional who has innovative ideas for complex problems and can translate these ideas into ultra-reliable software.

    What you'll be doing

    Develop core features of the Roku Channel app and Roku OS.

    Work closely with Product Development, UI/UX design, Platform Services, and Release Management teams to contribute to our application development.

    Investigate, diagnose and resolve issues.
    We're excited if you have

    Extensive experience with C or C++ and Embedded Linux or Native Application Development

    In-depth understanding of Linux, tools, libraries, and open source development

    Proven track record of designing and shipping high-quality software on an embedded platform.

    Experience with BrightScript, JavaScript, Lua, or similar languages

    Experience with OpenGL, DirectX, or any other graphics APIs

    Experience developing UI applications using popular frameworks such as ReactJS

    Experience writing functional and integration tests

    good understanding of Core OS concepts like memory management and multi-threading

    A good understanding of API design, considerations and trade-offs

    Consumer electronics experience building Media/Content and/or Ad product

    Strong verbal and written communication skills (this role involves frequent communication with teams throughout Roku)

    Bachelors or Masters in Computer Science or related fields

    #LI-MS3

    The Roku Culture

    Roku is a great place for people who want to work in a fast-paced environment where everyone is focused on the company's success rather than their own.

    We try to surround ourselves with people who are great at their jobs, who are easy to work with, and who keep their egos in check.

    We appreciate a sense of humor.

    We believe a fewer number of very talented folks can do more for less cost than a larger number of less talented teams.

    We're independent thinkers with big ideas who act boldly, move fast and accomplish extraordinary things through collaboration and trust. In short, at Roku you'll be part of a company that's changing how the world watches TV.
    We have a unique culture that we are proud of. We think of ourselves primarily as problem-solvers, which itself is a two-part idea.

    We come up with the solution, but the solution isn't real until it is built and delivered to the customer.

    That penchant for action gives us a pragmatic approach to innovation, one that has served us well since 2002.
