  • Manage content ingestion and publishing workflows across OTT, and internal DAM platforms
  • Coordinate delivery schedules and troubleshoot ingestion or playback issues with partners
  • Maintain accurate metadata (titles, descriptions, thumbnails, categories, tags) within feeds and CMS systems

  • Monitor feed health, validate XML structure, and ensure uptime and reliability
  • Collaborate with engineering, content, and partner teams to streamline workflows and improve scalability

  • Strong understanding of MRSS, RSS, XML structure, and metadata standards, with exceptional attention to detail in metadata and XML formatting
  • Hands-on experience with media transcoding tools such as FFmpeg, as well as cloud-based transcoding services (e.g., AWS Elemental MediaConvert, Mux)
  • Familiarity with video codecs (H.264, H.265), containers (MP4), and audio formats (AAC)
  • Experience managing content delivery via cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, CDN environments)
  • Understanding of streaming protocols and formats (progressive MP4, HLS, DASH)
  • Experience working with OTT platforms such as Roku, Apple TV, Android TV, or similar ecosystems
  • Understanding of DRM, content protection, and geo-distribution
  • Experience working with APIs for content ingestion and distribution
  • Basic scripting or automation experience (Python, Bash, or Node.js)
  • Strong troubleshooting and QA skills for media playback and ingestion issues
  • Ability to manage multiple distribution partners and deadlines simultaneously with strong organizational and workflow management skills
  • Excellent communication and coordination skills across cross-functional teams
  • Adaptable and solutions-oriented in a fast-paced digital media environment
