Senior Video Conferencing Engineer

Location: Remote OR Copenhagen

Department: Software Engineering

From the outside, video conferencing looks solved. Anyone whos worked on it knows better. At a big company, that work gets split a hundred ways, and youd own a slice of it. At a company our size, its one persons call, and it would be yours.

Were around 55 people, headquartered in Copenhagen, and youd work from there or remotely from within the EU. We build the hardware and the software that runs on it, so the conferencing youd work on runs on the device in the meeting room.

Year one outcomes

  • Put the telemetry in. Conferencing quality is hard to see without the right instrumentation, so youd build it: latency, quality, and resource use on the device, visible and tracked. Once its there, a bad call comes with the data to explain it.
  • Move the metrics. Better audio and video, lower latency, lighter load on the device. Agree on the handful that matter most, and show clear movement within the year.
  • Take on the problems that need a specialist. Some conferencing issues need someone whos solved them before. Youd own those from diagnosis to fix, and the recurring ones stop recurring.
  • Raise the teams game. Share what you know so the teams calls on real-time media get sharper, and flag the wrong turns before they cost months. The bar you set becomes the teams default.

Who You Are

  • Youve lived in real-time media. Years of it: WebRTC, codecs, the media server and its tricks, why a call holds together on one network and falls apart on another. You know the caveats because youve hit them. And the brand names sit on the same ideas underneath, so where you learned it matters less to us than that you did.

  • You reach for data. When somethings off, you measure before you theorise. Youve built or leaned on telemetry to find whats going on in a messy real-time system.

  • You lift the people around you. You do it without needing a managers title. You flag the caveat before someone hits it, steer a design away from a wrong turn, and people trust your read on a hard call.

  • You use AI as a daily tool. You write code with it, debug with it, prototype with it. Youve formed your own view on where it speeds things up and where it gets in the way, and you help the people around you do the same.

Logistics
Location: Remote in Europe, or hybrid from our Copenhagen office.

Why Airtame:

  • A harder problem than a cloud shops. Our real-time media has to hold up across a spread of devices in meeting rooms, on networks we dont control. Different constraints than a uniform server fleet, and more of them.
  • Room to set the bar. Youd be the first deep specialist Airtames had on conferencing quality, so how its measured and judged is still open for you to shape.
  • A healthy work-life balance.
  • Significant responsibility and ownership over projects and your field of expertise.
  • Five weeks paid vacation and 5 days of extra paid AirtameFlex days.
  • Flexible work environment, with a hybrid mindset.
  • Pension and private health insurance (on FTE Copenhagen contract).

Airtame is an equal opportunity employer. We have colleagues across the globe, with both in-office and full-time remote workers. This feeds into our international hybrid mindset, with people from 25+ nationalities that make up the Airtame team.

Our work-life cultural balance is key to our success. Our team encompasses our values of trust and open communication to support each other and to collaborate in a fun and collective way.
