Roku is changing how the world watches TV

Roku is the #1 TV streaming platform in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, and we've set our sights on powering every television in the world. Roku pioneered streaming to the TV.

About the Team

Roku runs one of the largest data lakes in the world. We store over 70 PB of data, run 10+M queries per month, and scan over 100 PB of data per month. The Big Data team is the one responsible for building, running, and supporting the platform that makes this possible. We provide all the tooling needed to acquire, generate, process, monitor, validate, and access the data in the lake for both streaming data and batch. We are also responsible for generating the foundational data. The systems we provide include Scribe, Kafka, Hive, Presto, Spark, Flink, Pinot, and others. The team is actively involved in the Open Source, and we are planning to increase our engagement over time.

  • Develop best practices around cloud infrastructure provisioning, disaster recovery, and guiding developers on the adoption

  • Scale Big Data and distributed systems

  • Collaborate on system architecture with developers for optimal scaling, resource utilization, fault tolerance, reliability, and availability

  • Conduct low-level systems debugging, performance measurement & optimization on large production clusters and low-latency services

  • Create scripts and automation that can react quickly to infrastructure issues and take corrective actions

  • Participate in architecture discussions, influence product roadmap, and take ownership and responsibility over new projects

  • Collaborate and communicate with a geographically distributed team

  • Experience with Kubernetes and Docker

  • Experience with Terraform

  • Strong background in Linux/Unix

  • Experience with system engineering around edge cases, failure modes, and disaster recovery

Benefits

Roku is committed to offering a diverse range of benefits as part of our compensation package to support our employees and their families. Our comprehensive benefits include global access to mental health and financial wellness support and resources. Local benefits include statutory and voluntary benefits which may include healthcare (medical, dental, and vision), life, accident, disability, commuter, and retirement options (401(k)/pension). Our employees can take time off work for vacation and other personal reasons to balance their evolving work and life needs. It's important to note that not every benefit is available in all locations or for every role. For details specific to your location, please consult with your recruiter.

The Roku Culture

Roku is a great place for people who want to work in a fast-paced environment where everyone is focused on the company's success rather than their own. We try to surround ourselves with people who are great at their jobs, who are easy to work with, and who keep their egos in check. We appreciate a sense of humor. We believe a fewer number of very talented folks can do more for less cost than a larger number of less talented teams. We're independent thinkers with big ideas who act boldly, move fast and accomplish extraordinary things through collaboration and trust. In short, at Roku you'll be part of a company that's changing how the world watches TV.

We have a unique culture that we are proud of. We think of ourselves primarily as problem-solvers, which itself is a two-part idea. We come up with the solution, but the solution isn't real until it is built and delivered to the customer. That penchant for action gives us a pragmatic approach to innovation, one that has served us well since 2002.
