Responsibilities
The evertz.io Engineering Team builds next-generation systems for content management and distribution in the Media and Entertainment industry.
Disney, NBCUniversal, Discovery, BBC, and many other content producers and publishers use our products and services to make the most of their file-based and live content for the least effort.
We work with high quality video in real-time and non-real-time scenarios across a wide range of cutting-edge tech.
Specializations within the group span from low-level video manipulation and analysis, through back-end management and orchestration services, to web delivered UIs.
There may also be opportunities for working as a member of the Scientific Computing Group who work in computer vision, data science and machine learning, taking experiments in Jupyter notebooks through to deployment in production.
Our technology stack includes a serverless microservice architecture that capitalizes on the full breadth of AWS services with code written in Python, Rust and Java.
