Would you mind sharing a link to the course? Thanks in advance!

Thank you oso2k!

> Well, we're currently all remote...

:) touché

Thanks for your response!

That's good to know, thanks! Appreciate your input.

Thank you!

Are these all on-site roles or do you consider remote as well?

Hi ChrisRackauckas, for remote are you considering US only? Thanks!

Hi VonGuard, I was just curious, if a position is listed as US-Remote, would you consider an applicant in Canada for that role? Thanks!

I guess I can see that (to a certain extent), thanks for offering your explanation.

Who/what is a “sub-FAANG SWE”? Are you suggesting software engineers who don’t work at one of the FAANG’s are subpar? Apologies if I’m misunderstanding.

Hello! I have been working on systems that enable real-time, low latency, live media processing for adaptive bitrate (ABR) Over-the-Top (OTT) video streaming services.

Main programming language is C++ (occasionally some C), along with Golang for some additional services. Used python and shell scripts for writing various utilities/installers, along with Jenkins and Artifactory for our CI/CD pipeline. Worked on various aspects of the live media preprocessing pipeline from ingest (MPEG-2 TS, SDI) to adaptive transport stream (ATS) multiplexing and ABR packaging (HLS/HSS/MPEG-DASH), and everything else in between. Led the development efforts for a couple of products, one of which was a high availability (HA) distributed system written in Go for synchronizing live streaming channels across data centers.

Have spent a fair bit of time optimizing our products and identifying bottlenecks through profiling, and instrumenting Linux system calls using tools such as perf, SystemTap, etc. Delved into x86 assembly and SIMD intrinsics as part of this work too. While not an expert in JavaScript, I've also debugged JS based media players for identifying and fixing playback/streaming issues in various clients.

Comfortable with deploying applications into Kubernetes or OpenShift based infrastructure via ansible, and using jinja2 templating for configuring the services.

Currently looking for a backend engineer role where I can contribute towards building and scaling applications or products. I am always open to learning new technologies/domains!

I think you might be ignoring the international students who graduate from US universities? They also need to go through the H1-B process.

I would like to see this as well, sounds very interesting

I had never heard of it either until now

Can you provide a source for that? Would like to read that paper.

Thanks! :) Gonna add this to the list of books I need to read.

If you are more interested, Appendix C of "Is Parallel Programming Hard, And, If So, What Can You Do About It?" by Paul McKenney (http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/paulmck/perfbook/p...) provides a very detailed description as well. It really helped improve my understanding of how memory barriers and atomics work
