Nice-to-Have:

• Experience with TypeScript/JavaScript or Python
• Familiarity with GStreamer
• Understanding of video encoding techniques
• Knowledge of video codecs and container formats

• Experience working with Docker
• Basic understanding of HDMI and SDI
• Experience with SDI muxing and video capture (Blackmagic hardware is a plus)
   

We offer:

• 30 days off per year (vacation and sick days);
