Job Description:
At Philo, we're a group of technology and product people who set
out to build the future of television, marrying the best in modern
technology with the most compelling medium ever invented - in
short, we're building the TV experience that we've always wanted
for ourselves. In practice this means leveraging cloud delivery,
modern tech stacks, machine learning, and hand-crafted native app
experiences on all of our platforms. We aim to deliver a rock solid
experience on the streaming basics, while cooking up next
generation multi-screen and multi-user playback experiences.
Senior Backend Software Engineer (Ad Engineering)
Philo's video streaming infrastructure is highly distributed,
horizontally scalable and harnesses the power of cloud computing.
Our OTT pipeline, developed in-house, ingests both live and VOD
content from our content partners, dynamically inserts ads into
video streams using Server-Side Ad Insertion (SSAI), and optimally
delivers them to our growing user base at exabyte scale.
We are seeking an enthusiastic Software Engineer to help us build
the future of our ads platform. As a member of a growing team, you
will serve as both a technical leader to help us engineer our ad
tech stack, as well as an internal subject matter expert on ad
technology (both for our platforms as well as trends in the
industry at large).
On the business side, Philo is leading the CTV ad industry by
focusing 100% on programmatic advertising and resellers, foregoing
the traditional direct sales models. At Philo you will be helping
to shape the future of television advertising as you build the next
generation of our ad business. Collaborating with our Ad Operations
and business teams, you will work with our partners to gather
requirements, determine the optimal services and partner
integrations needed to optimize Philo's transactions throughout the
programmatic ad ecosystem, then go build and operate the services
to make that vision a reality.
