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. About the Role You will be a SME and technical leader in engineering Infrastructure, productivity and enterprise tooling, partnering with globally distributed Engineering, Product and Security teams and systems. What You’ll Be Doing Roku is seeking a world class engineer to be a true force multiplier by owning the strategy, architecture, and long-term execution of engineering infrastructure, enterprise tooling, and AI-assisted workflow automation. This architect/strategist role drives org-wide improvements in engineering productivity, delivery throughput, quality, security posture, and cost efficiency by building platforms, working practices and automation (including AI/LLM-enabled capabilities) that scale across geographies and time zones. How will I use AI at Roku? At Roku, we don’t just use AI, we work with it. AI agents and smart tools help power drafts, analysis, and repetitive workflows, while our people bring direction, judgment, and accountability. We’re looking for curious, adaptable builders who can show how they’ve used AI or automation to move faster, raise the bar, and scale their impact. We value your AI skills if have built fluency across the agentic engineering toolchain — coding harnesses like Claude Code or Cursor, MCP servers, custom skills, or agent frameworks.

About the team The Observability team is part of Roku’s Cloud Technology Infrastructure organization and plays a critical role in our platform. We are a high-performing, fast-moving international team that thrives on ownership, effective communication, and delivering impactful engineering solutions. Our mission is to advance Roku’s observability platform, which operates at an impressive scale by ingesting terabytes of data daily and managing hundreds of millions of active series. As part of this mission, we focus on building scalable, performant systems to meet Roku’s unique needs. By leveraging open-source tools, CNCF-supported projects, and custom solutions, we enable engineering teams across Roku to monitor, debug, and optimize their applications with ease. What sets us apart is our results-driven culture rooted in ownership, accountability, and fast iteration. We prioritize solving meaningful engineering problems, fostering collaboration, and continually improving our team's work processes. About the role You will work on core observability systems (metrics, logs, traces) while also developing robust data pipelines and storage solutions optimized for high throughput, performance, and cost. You’ll leverage technologies such as time-series databases (TSDB), columnar storage formats (e.g., Parquet), and distributed data processing frameworks to advance the platform’s capabilities. Collaboration with cross-functional teams will be critical, as you’ll integrate observability into Roku’s cloud-native stack and contribute improvements back to the open-source community. Extend and integrate open-source observability systems, and when necessary, structurally overhaul core components, such as storage layers and query paths, to enhance the performance, reliability, and usability of these tools at scale. Build services to improve performance, usability, reliability, and cost efficiency. Implement features like pre-aggregation, downsampling, and sampling to reduce load and accelerate queries. Create developer-facing capabilities for metrics, logs, and traces usage, data quality, and cost management. Automate onboarding, dashboards, alerting, and tracing. Collaborate across platform and infrastructure teams to integrate observability into Roku’s cloud-native stack. We're excited if you have 8+ years in software engineering, building distributed, high-throughput systems or observability platforms. 4+ years of Go/Golang experience; our observability ecosystem is built on Go, making it the most effective language for this role. Experience with, or strong interest in, observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Tempo, ELK/OpenSearch, Clickhouse) and standards (OpenTelemetry, OpenTracing, OpenMetrics). Deep understanding of distributed systems and data models Hands-on experience with Kubernetes and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure). #LI-AR2 What's Roku's approach to hybrid working?
