Job description

Job Description

At SNS, we build world-class products for teams of video editors and filmmakers. We get our hands dirty with server hardware, software, storage, high-speed Ethernet, cloud, AI... we're completely up and down the stack, and we like people who love to build things and aren't afraid to roll up their sleeves.

If you started taking things apart and programming before you could drive a car, then you're probably someone who will love working on our team.

We're constantly growing, and we're currently looking to expand our team with people who have experience in several of the areas below. If we hire you, you will be thoroughly immersed in designing and developing new products, as well as evolving our existing products—this may take multiple forms including research, architecture, coding, testing, tuning/optimization, documentation, etc.

Requirements

We don't expect anyone to have all of these things, but you should be the kind of person who gets excited about digging into something you've never done before, and then running with it.

• Linux product engineering/development (e.g., kernel, embedded, virtualization/VirtualBox, KVM/qemu, Docker, shell scripting)
• Development experience with C/C++, Python, .NET, Java, React, SQL
• Networking/storage engineering/development/tuning (e.g., mdadm/lvm2/RAID, Samba, TCP/IP, NAS, file systems like XFS/ZFS, FUSE)
• Cloud product engineering/development (e.g., SaaS, IaaS, AWS products like S3 and EC2 (or Azure/GCP equivalents), Stripe). Bonus if you've migrated an on-prem application to a SaaS model.
• Experience with clustered file systems like Gluster or Ceph storage tuning/performance is a plus.
• Strong interest in/embrace of AI tools, with experience applying them to complete projects more quickly.
• A great sense of humor and intense interest in subjects most people don't understand—characteristics of our ideal team members.

Triple bonus points if you also have experience building video-related software products or with open source software like ffmpeg.

Benefits

Some of what we offer:

• Competitive pay, work from home
• PTO
• Health insurance
• Matching 401k
• Weekly pay period
• A spot on a fantastic team that loves what they do
• The ability to have your contributions recognized in a big way
• A spirited, growth-oriented culture with an average tenure of 7+ years
