Netflix in Juneau, AK seeks a Senior Software Engineer to design and implement real-time, ultra-low-latency streaming solutions using RTP/RTCP over IP networks to support interactive media worldwide.

You will collaborate with server-side delivery stacks, consumer and analytics teams to optimize designs, run lab and production tests (A/B), and push software craftsmanship from concept to production.

Qualifications

• In-depth knowledge of congestion control, goodput, latency, and reliability for ultra-low-latency RTP streaming.
• Familiarity with low-latency, bidirectional media flows over IP and buffer management.
• Experience in network lab environments for controlled data-networking experiments.
• Experience with A/B testing for transport stack performance in production.
• Hands-on with RTP/RTCP, DTLS, SCTP, STUN/TURN, and ICE protocols.
• Strong communication skills to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
• Comfort collaborating across time zones with remote teams.
• Proficiency with Linux and packet capture tools (tcpdump, Wireshark) and scripting in Python or R.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop RTP/RTCP-based streaming solutions for high-interaction, low-latency delivery.
• Develop heuristics for cost, latency estimation, congestion control, and loss recovery.
• Collaborate with server-side delivery teams to integrate new designs.
• Partner with server, consumer, and analytics teams to validate designs using lab and production testing.

Job Overview

Position: Senior Software Engineer

Company: Netflix

Location: Juneau, USA

Salary: $22 per hour

Educational Requirements: Bachelor’s Degree

Responsibilities

Senior Software Engineer responsible for designing and implementing real‑time, ultra‑low‑latency streaming solutions using RTP/RTCP over IP networks to support interactive media worldwide.

• Design and develop RTP/RTCP-based solutions for high‑interaction, low‑latency streaming across global networks.
• Develop and refine heuristics for cost, latency estimation, congestion control, and loss recovery in RTP media streams.
• Collaborate with server‑side, real‑time delivery stack teams to integrate new designs.
• Partner with server, consumer, and analytics teams to validate and optimize designs using lab and production (A/B) testing.

Qualifications

• Deep knowledge of congestion control, goodput, latency, and reliability techniques for interactive, ultra‑low‑latency RTP‑based streaming.
• Familiarity with low‑latency, bidirectional media flows over IP, bufferbloat, active/smart queue control, and concurrent TCP‑like flows.
• Experience using network lab environments for controlled data‑networking experiments with large, multi‑parameter test spaces.
• Experience applying A/B testing methodologies for transport stack performance validation in production.
• Practical expertise of relaxed RTP/RTCP, DTLS, SCTP, STUN/turn, and ICE protocols.
• Ability to articulate technical and business implications to diverse audiences.
• Comfort with cross‑time‑zone collaboration with remote teams.
• Experience with Linux or related environments.
• Familiarity with tcpdump/wireshark, Python, and R (or comparable tools) for traffic capture, orchestration, statistical analysis, and presentation.

Success Criteria

• Ability to frame and self‑manage challenging projects driven through ambiguous questions.
• Self‑starter, curious, and not afraid to ask when in doubt.
• Quick learner eager to adopt new technologies.
• Commitment to software craftsmanship, ownership from concept to production.

Preferred Qualifications

Master’s or Bachelor’s degree in a relevant science or engineering discipline.
