Your Role

Our Core Video team support all video needs at Hudl, and we’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join them and support our video encoding pipeline. You’ll have a chance to work with our latest video API as you ensure our pipeline is cost-efficient, scalable and provides the highest quality video to our users.

As a Senior Software Engineer at Hudl, you’ll:

• Be a key technical leader. In addition to your focus on delivery, you’ll support the team by breaking down complex engineering problems, advocating for best practices, and guiding others.
• Maintain efficiency. With a focus on outcomes over outputs, you’ll ensure your team delivers high-impact work efficiently. Your leadership will empower your team to make data-driven decisions and iterate quickly on feedback.
• Collaborate across disciplines. You’ll work closely with leaders from various disciplines to plan and deliver enhancements across our product suite. Your ability to integrate diverse perspectives will be key to driving innovation and ensuring our products meet the highest standards.
• Foster Agile practices. You’ll participate actively in Scrum ceremonies, playing a significant role in maintaining a strong team culture.

We'd like to hire someone for this role who lives near our offices in Lincoln or Omaha, Nebraska, or Lexington, Kentucky, but we're also open to remote candidates in Kansas City, Chicago, Austin or Dallas.

Must-Haves

• Strong technical proficiency. You have extensive experience in full-stack engineering, and you’ve spent time with cloud-based systems/services. You’re also an advocate of TDD and CI/CD, and you can guide engineering practices across any team.
• Technical coaching experience. You’re comfortable translating requirements, creating architectural proposals, breaking work into digestible increments, and guiding other Engineers through implementation.
• A collaborative, team-first mindset. You know building excellent software is a team effort, and you’re willing to collaborate with others to get to the best outcome, whether that means providing input in technical discussions, pitching in when a teammate needs a hand, or providing quality feedback in code review.
• Mentor mentality. You strongly believe in the multiplier mindset and understand that your growth is tied to the growth of those around you. You enjoy helping fellow Engineers hone their skills in various ways, including reviewing code, pair programming and documentation.

Nice-to-Haves

• Professional background in C#, TypeScript, React, GraphQL, MongoDB and AWS. Adjacent languages, frameworks and services used at scale are also relevant experiences.
• Experience with media at scale. You’ve worked with media in a professional setting and are familiar with technologies such as video encoding and on-demand rendering.
• Passion for sports. You have an interest in the sports world, whether as a fan, an analyst, or a former player. Experience with sports technology or an understanding of sports analytics is a definite plus.
• Familiarity with hybrid teams. Our Engineering team is spread across the U.S. with people working both in office and remotely. If you’ve worked with hybrid or remote teams before, that would help you adapt quickly to Hudl’s working environment.

Our Role

• Champion work-life harmony. We’ll give you the flexibility you need in your work life (e.g., flexible vacation time, company-wide holidays and timeout (meeting-free) days, remote work options and more) so you can enjoy your personal life too.
• Guarantee autonomy. We have an open, honest culture and we trust our people from day one. Your team will support you, but you’ll own your work and have the agency to try new ideas.
• Encourage career growth. We’re lifelong learners who encourage professional development. We’ll give you tons of resources and opportunities to keep growing.
• Provide an environment to help you succeed. We've invested in our offices, designing incredible spaces with our employees in mind. But whether you’re at the office or working remotely, we’ll provide you the tech stack and hardware to do your best work.
• Support your mental and physical health. We care about our employees’ wellbeing. Our Employee Assistance Program, employee resource groups and fitness partner Peerfit have you covered.
• Cover your medical insurance. We have multiple plans to pick from to ensure you’ll have the coverage you (and your dependents) want, including vision, dental, fertility healthcare and family forming benefits.
• Contribute to your 401(K). Yep, that’s free money. We’ll match up to 4% of your own contribution.
