Job Opportunity
The Senior Technical Architect plays a pivotal role in defining the technological foundation and strategic development of broadcast television solutions. This key position focuses solely on high-level architectural design and innovation, ensuring our technology stack is scalable, resilient, and capable of supporting the complex needs of modern broadcasting operations.
Key Responsibilities
* Design and evolve end-to-end broadcast solutions, from content ingest to playout and distribution, ensuring seamless integration across legacy and modern systems.
* Lead the transition from traditional SDI-based infrastructure to IP-based, cloud-architectures, leveraging technologies such as AWS Cloud, Kubernetes, and serverless computing.
* Define and enforce best practices and architectural standards that support automation, scalability, and high availability in broadcast operations.
* Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure that software-defined solutions meet business and technical requirements.
* Stay ahead of industry trends in cloud broadcasting, media orchestration, and automation, and recommend innovative solutions to enhance flexibility and cost-efficiency.
* Act as a design authority and quality leader, ensuring that all technical solutions are robust, secure, and future-proof.
Requirements
* Degree in Broadcast Technology, Computer Science, or equivalent professional experience.
* Proven experience delivering complex broadcast projects, including IP-based and cloud-integrated systems.
* Strong understanding of broadcast signal chains, media workflows, and playout systems.
* Demonstrated expertise in public cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure), including experience with infrastructure as code, CI/CD pipelines, and serverless architectures.
* Solid background in software development and deployment, with proficiency in modern development practices such as version control and automated delivery pipelines.
* Strong focus on software quality, with a deep understanding of both functional (unit, integration, system) and non-functional (performance, scalability, reliability, security) testing.
* Collaborative mindset with the ability to work effectively across development, QA, and operations teams to deliver high-quality, resilient, and maintainable solutions.
* Excellent communication and leadership skills, with a proven ability to guide teams through technical transformations.
