Senior C++ Systems Developer - Live Media

When live video travels across networks, every part of the system needs to deliver. At Net Insight, you will work on the software that makes reliable media transport possible — solving demanding engineering problems together with experienced colleagues who enjoy sharing their knowledge.

We are looking for a senior C++ developer to join the Nimbra Edge team. This is a hands-on role with substantial technical ownership, where you will improve performance, investigate complex problems and influence the architecture behind a product used in professional media delivery.

Some of the reasons to join Net Insight:

• Technically challenging work in modern C++23, close to Linux, networking and hardware.

• The opportunity to influence architecture, implementation and development practices.

• A small, autonomous team within an established international technology company.

• Friendly, knowledgeable colleagues who value collaboration and open discussion.

• Flexible working hours and a workplace that understands life outside work.

You are an experienced developer who still enjoys being deeply involved in the code. You take initiative when the next step is unclear, investigate before drawing conclusions and look for solutions that keep the system as simple as possible.

You also enjoy working with others. You explain your reasoning, listen to different perspectives and share what you learn. Your technical contribution includes helping the team reach sound decisions together.

We are looking for:

• 10+ years of professional software development experience.

• Deep knowledge of modern C++ and systems programming, including memory management, concurrency and performance profiling.

• Strong Linux experience, including troubleshooting involving the operating system, scheduling or hardware.

• Solid networking fundamentals and confidence analysing traffic and protocol behaviour at packet level.

• Experience developing performance-critical or real-time software with demanding latency, jitter or throughput requirements.

• The ability to take ownership of technical problems and make well-founded design decisions.

Experience with video streaming protocols and media transport is particularly valuable. Other relevant experience includes DPDK or XDP, precision time synchronisation, NICs and drivers, or hardware-accelerated media processing.

Your background may be in media technology, telecom, networking or another field with demanding systems and performance requirements. Previous broadcast experience is welcome, but is not required.

The team also uses AI tools in its development workflow, and welcomes curiosity about how they can support your work.
