Careers at Roku

Teamwork makes the stream work. Roku is changing how the world watches TV Roku is the #1 TV streaming platform in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, and we've set our sights on powering every television in the world. Roku pioneered streaming to the TV. Our mission is to be the TV streaming platform that connects the entire TV ecosystem. We connect consumers to the content they love, enable content publishers to build and monetize large audiences, and provide advertisers unique capabilities to engage consumers. From your first day at Roku, you'll make a valuable - and valued - contribution. We're a fast-growing public company where no one is a bystander. We offer you the opportunity to delight millions of TV streamers around the world while gaining meaningful experience across a variety of disciplines. What does the team work on? Our Cloud Compute Platform Engineering team is at the heart of Roku's transformation toward a single, unified platform. We design and scale Kubernetes clusters, service mesh architecture, and supporting systems to ensure all engineering teams speak the same infrastructure language. We partner with internal teams to migrate workloads, enhance CI/CD pipelines, and integrate observability and security into every layer of the stack. Collaboration and impact are core to what we do. What is the role? Join us in building Roku's next-generation cloud-agnostic platform that powers Kubernetes and service mesh at scale. If you're passionate about designing resilient infrastructure, automating deployments, and enabling hundreds of workloads across multiple regions, this role is for you. You'll work with cutting-edge technologies like Kubernetes, Istio, Envoy, Terraform, modern observability stacks and collaborate with teams worldwide to deliver a unified hosting experience. If you're passionate about deep platform and infrastructure engineering, solving complex scaling challenges, and enabling teams through elegant, automated solutions—this role is for you. How will I use AI at Roku? At Roku, AI agents do most of the keystroke-level coding. Engineers act as the technical leads for those agents — setting context, planning work, verifying outputs, and recovering when the agent goes off course. If you are excited about working this way, we want to talk to you. At Roku, we're embracing AI as a powerful tool to amplify human creativity, accelerate innovation, and deliver better results for our customers. Across teams, we're exploring how AI can enhance our work—and we're only looking for people who are curious, adaptable, and excited to grow alongside these technologies.

We offer you the opportunity to delight millions of TV streamers around the world while gaining meaningful experience across a variety of disciplines. What does the team work on? This team spends most of its time building and improving the UI framework and components that power Roku user experiences. Our roadmap helps us accelerate our growth and scale, putting surprising new features into the hands of tens of millions of Roku users worldwide. Our developers and engineers are owners. They are motivated from within, finding and taking on a feature or project simply because that problem needs to be solved and shipped. But that individual must work together with different engineering teams, UI design, product teams, and business leadership to make things happen, which means that engineers succeed here because they can maintain that independent spirit and motivation within a deeply collaborative environment. We are the pragmatic dreamers inventing and re-inventing the world of streaming media. What is the role? Roku pioneered streaming to the TV and continues to innovate and lead the industry. The Senior Software Engineer will contribute extensively to the embedded UI framework development, working closely with system architects to develop new features and extend current capabilities to improve system stability and performance. This role involves building and maintaining tools to improve the quality and consistency of Roku OS logging data, creating Python-based automation to extract, analyze, and validate log usage across large codebases, and developing offline pipelines for processing logs to support pre-merge validation and automated data contract generation. You will write and review C++ changes in embedded codebases to ensure accurate and reliable logging, and partner with UI infrastructure, firmware, and CI teams to integrate tooling into developer workflows. The features and performance improvements you implement directly impact millions of users every day, making this a great opportunity for an experienced professional who has innovative ideas for complex problems and can translate these ideas into ultra-reliable software. How will I use AI at Roku? At Roku, AI agents do most of the keystroke-level coding. Engineers act as the technical leads for those agents — setting context, planning work, verifying outputs, and recovering when the agent goes off course. If you are excited about working this way, we want to talk to you. You have built fluency across the agentic engineering toolchain — coding harnesses like Claude Code or Cursor, MCP servers, custom skills, or agent frameworks. And you can describe projects where you shipped real work with these tools. You know how to drive an agent, verify its output, and ramp on an unfamiliar codebase with an agent helping you. At Roku, we're embracing AI as a powerful tool to amplify human creativity, accelerate innovation, and deliver better results for our customers. Across teams, we're exploring how AI can enhance our work — and we're only looking for people who are curious, adaptable, and excited to grow alongside these technologies.
