Role OverviewRoku is a fast-growing public company where no one is a bystander. We're looking for a talented engineer to join our New Products Development Team working on the Roku TV program! You will be responsible for core tasks ranging from Roku OS feature development, SoC partner collaboration, third-party API integration, code maintenance, design scalability solutions to help onboard new factories, supporting our QA and Channel certification teams, and everything else involved in our end-to-end product development and release cycles.
What You Will Do
Roku OS feature development, leveraging AI tools to accelerate coding, debugging, and iteration, Code maintenance and scalability solution design and development, Partner with internal QA and development teams, System-on-a-Chip (SoC) integration and platform bring-up, Third-party API integration, Working end-to-end product development and release cycles, Critically evaluating AI-generated code for correctness, security, and performance in embedded contexts
Why It Might Be a Fit
We value individuals who take pride in their ability to navigate ambiguity, collaborate, and partner with both internal and external teams, including those with demanding engineering standards and a passion for building the highest-performing, best-in-class consumer products.
Requirements
- Proven AI-assisted coding experience
- Regular, hands-on use of AI coding tools (e.g., Claude, Copilot, Cursor, OpenCode) in real development work, with specific examples of AI tools used in production workflows
- Advanced prompt engineering and AI code review skills
- Ability to write effective prompts, iterate on AI output, and critically evaluate AI-generated code for correctness, security, and performance; can identify hallucinations, subtle bugs, and security vulnerabilities
- Agentic coding tool proficiency
- 8+ years of relevant software development experience
- 4+ years C/C++ coding experience
- System-on-a-chip (SoC) development and integration preferred
