Senior Software Engineer – CTV

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain application components for Paramount’s Smart TV apps using React and Type Script
• Optimize application performance on resource‑constrained CTV devices. Profile rendering, measure memory, fix what’s slow
• Collaborate with central video engineering teams to integrate and optimize video players across platforms
• Work with external platform partners (Samsung, LG, and others) to develop, debug, and certify applications
• Manage application state with Redux and RTK. Keep the store clean and selectors fast as the app grows
• Write clean, tested code and participate in code reviews. Hold your teammates to the same standard
• Coordinate with Product, Design, and Backend Engineering to turn requirements into working features
• Work across multiple agile teams and contribute to all phases of the development cycle
• Improve CI/CD pipelines and testing infrastructure for multi‑platform Smart TV deployments
• Document components, platform‑specific patterns, and technical decisions
• Use AI development tools to move faster and share what works with the team

• 5+ years writing software
• 2+ years building Smart TV or CTV applications on web‑based platforms (Tizen, webOS, or similar)
• BS in Computer Science, a related field, or equivalent work experience
• React and Type Script. You build components, not just consume them
• State management with Redux and RTK. You understand store shape, middleware, and when selectors cause unnecessary re‑renders
• Client‑side routing patterns (React Router or equivalent)
• Front‑end fundamentals: HTML, CSS, modern JavaScript. You can debug layout and rendering issues on a TV runtime
• You’ve taken features from concept through delivery on CTV platforms, including certification
• CI/CD environments with Dev Ops and SRE principles
• RESTful API integration and data handling
