Dolby's consumer entertainment and cinema businesses are bringing Dolby's breakthrough technologies, powering the world's top movies, TV shows, music, games, and live sports to more places around the world across a wider range of consumer experiences and devices.

 

Join the leader in entertainment innovation and help us design the future. At Dolby, science meets art, and high tech means more than computer code. As a member of the Dolby team, you'll see and hear the results of your work everywhere, from movie theaters to smartphones. We continue to revolutionize how people create, deliver, and enjoy entertainment worldwide.  

We are looking for aspiring engineers who don't just write code, but have a genuine obsession with how pixels are processed. 

We have an environment of state-of-the art R&D with a culture - big enough to give you all the resources you need, and small enough so you can make a real difference. You'll be working on the development, implementation, test engineering and quality assurance of cutting-edge imaging/video processing algorithms, Dolby Vision and related technologies. Mentored by our experienced senior engineers, your work will contribute to our overall product and technology roadmap.   

Responsibilities:  

  • Contribute to the design and development of the Dolby Vision device SDK, ensuring high-performance integration across diverse home entertainment platforms such as TVs, STBs, and AVRs. 

  • Research and develop Machine Learning-based approaches to automate perceptual image and video quality assessment. 

  • Design and implement data pipelines and ML model training/evaluation frameworks to support automated quality benchmarks. 

  • Utilize Python to build developer tools and automate complex engineering tasks, and support ML experimentation workflows, improving the overall efficiency of the development lifecycle. 

  • Leverage AI-assisted coding techniques (e.g., LLM-based tools such as GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, etc.) to accelerate code development, streamline log analysis, and enhance automated testing processes.
