Job description

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. To do that, we need the absolute best talent. We’re big enough to give you all the resources you need, and small enough so you can make a real difference and earn recognition for your work. We offer a collegial culture, challenging projects, and excellent compensation and benefits, not to mention a Flex Work approach that is truly flexible to support where, when, and how you do your best work.

As part of our newly formed Content Creation team in Poland, you will work at the intersection of video production, post‑processing workflows, and technology, ensuring the highest visual and technical quality of modern media content across platforms and devices.

This role is ideal for someone with a strong video, post‑production, or content creation background, who enjoys working hands‑on with media, tools, and workflows — and who understands quality not only as “testing,” but as how content looks, feels, and performs in real‑world pipelines.

This initiative focuses on building, validating, and improving video content pipelines and post‑production workflows used by professional creators and engineers. You will collaborate closely with international engineering teams, content specialists, and media experts in a fast‑moving, exploratory environment.

What is Dolby Vision?

Dolby Vision empowers visual creatives to add greater depth, incredible contrast, and more colors than you dreamed possible to the movies, TV shows, and games you love. It unlocks the full potential of HDR technology by dynamically optimizing the image quality based on your service, device, and platform to deliver mesmerizing visuals every time. More:
