Software Engineer (c++)

Who we are and what we do     Audinate leads the world in networked media with our "Dante" technology which is used extensively in professional audio & video applications, including live events, broadcast, entertainment venues and communication systems.      Dante replaces all audio and video connections with a computer network, effortlessly sending video or hundreds of channels of audio over slender Ethernet cables with perfect digital fidelity. Adopted by hundreds of manufacturers in thousands of products, Dante is the de facto standard for modern AV connectivity.   You’ll find us in the largest companies and institutions like the Sydney Opera House, NFL Media Headquarters, Microsoft, major universities and even a 900-year old cathedral featured in Harry Potter.

About the role   We are seeking an experienced C++ Engineer to join our Cloud team and work on the core products used to manage networks of Dante devices. You'll help transform this technology to support both private and public cloud environments and scale to support the millions of Dante devices in the field.

To be successful you'll have experience with Linux, networking and IoT devices as well as exposure to AWS or other cloud platforms. You will be able to turn a high-level feature description into a robust implementation using the most suitable tools and tech to achieve project goals and ensure that every release is successful.   We are going through a cloud technology transformation at Audinate and you'll be coming into a team that is responsible for the continued development of a mature product as well as building new platforms. As new platforms are built we are consistently mindful of our customers and end users and how they interact with our technology and achieve their business goals.
