Job description
Job Summary:
Allen Media Group is a company that operates Local Now, a free, ad-supported streaming service. They are seeking a Video Infrastructure Engineer to take ownership of their video streaming architecture, focusing on designing, optimizing, and scaling the video delivery pipeline.
Responsibilities:
• Design, build, operate, and maintain cloud and hybrid video workflows for live and video-on-demand (VOD) streaming, including ingest, processing, transcoding, packaging, and distribution.
• Design and optimize our CDN strategy, managing configuration, traffic routing, edge tokenization, and caching rules to achieve low latency, high availability, and global scalability.
• Act as the primary technical point of contact for downstream distribution partners, overseeing the technical integration, delivery feeds, metadata alignment, and handoffs to platforms.
• Evaluate, onboard, and manage relationships with key technology vendors (e.g., cloud media services, software encoders, player developers, and DRM providers), ensuring vendors meet strict SLA requirements and align with our architectural roadmap.
• Fine-tune video encoding profiles using modern codecs (H.264/AVC, H.265/HEVC, AV1) and adaptive bitrate (ABR) packaging protocols (HLS, MPEG-DASH) to maximize visual quality while managing delivery costs.
• Instrument the platform for observability and operational analytics, implementing and analyzing video-specific telemetry (e.g., Conviva, Mux, Datadog) to proactively identify and resolve stream degradations or delivery failures.
• Maintain and implement Digital Rights Management (DRM) technologies (Widevine, FairPlay, PlayReady), secure token-based authentication, and geo-blocking restrictions where required.
Qualifications:
Required:
• 5+ years of dedicated experience in video infrastructure, media engineering, or digital video delivery networks.
• Advanced knowledge of digital video/audio compression concepts, container formats (MP4, CMAF, TS), and ABR streaming technologies (HLS, DASH).
• Strong understanding of live streaming ingest and transport protocols, including SRT, RTMP, Zixi, and WebRTC, alongside core networking protocols (TCP/IP, UDP, HTTP/S).
• Proven experience configuring and tuning major CDNs (e.g., Akamai, Fastly, Cloudflare, AWS CloudFront).
• Hands-on experience with media processing tools and cloud-based video workflows (e.g., FFmpeg, AWS Elemental MediaServices, Harmonic, Bitmovin).
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills with a track record of driving technical deliverables simultaneously with external vendors, backend teams, and downstream partners.
• Proficient with video debugging and analysis tools (e.g., Wireshark, Charles Proxy, manifest parsers) to diagnose streaming playback and transport issues.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Telecommunications, Information Technology, or equivalent practical industry experience.
Preferred:
• Familiarity with ad-insertion architectures, including server-side ad insertion (SSAI) with tools like AWS MediaTailor, and client-side ad insertion (CSAI) protocols (SCTE-35, VAST, VMAP).
• Proficiency in a scripting or programming language (e.g., Python, Bash, Go) to automate infrastructure tasks and video workflows.
• Experience with configuration management and Infrastructure as Code (e.g., Terraform, Ansible) in a secure-by-default environment.
• Track record of using modern AI tools (such as Cursor or Claude Code) effectively in a production engineering workflow to accelerate output without sacrificing quality.
Company:
Allen Media Group is a global media production and distribution company. Founded in 1993, the company is headquartered in Los Angeles, USA, with a team of 501-1000 employees. The company is currently Late Stage.
