Responsibilities
Advance the editor: Improve timeline performance, rendering, effects, transitions, and non‑destructive editing; you’ll need to balance leveraging the most up-to-date browser features with broader compatibility goals
Scale ingestion & search: Evolve a pipeline that ingests, transcodes, fingerprints, and indexes media and metadata for low‑latency search and AI assistance
AI workflows: Interface with models outputs (captions, cuts, voiceover, style templates) directly into editor UX; design safe fallbacks and human‑in‑the‑loop review
Own reliability: Instrument SLIs/SLOs for ingest throughput, time‑to‑first‑frame, preview FPS, and search relevance; remove toil with automation
Collaborate & lead: Partner with Design, Product, QA, and Data Science to scope thin slices, run experiments, and mentor engineers. For Staff level, drive cross‑team architecture
