About the Role: Tubi's content platform is the engine behind one of the largest free streaming services in the world. Every play, every deal, every creator, every frame of video flows through systems CPE owns, and the surface area is enormous. Distributed services running on the hottest path of Tubi's traffic. Video pipelines processing one of the largest workloads in streaming. Workflow engines automating the operations that used to consume entire teams. Creator-facing products turning a back-office process into a real platform. And on top of all of it, an AI-native rebuild of the CMS that most companies aren't willing to attempt. This isn't a single-domain role. It's a platform where backend, frontend, video, infrastructure, and applied AI all collide at the scale where decisions actually matter, where an architectural choice ripples across millions of titles and billions of requests, and where the difference between "good enough" and "great" shows up in revenue. We're looking for builders who want to range across domains — backend one quarter, frontend the next, applied AI the one after that — and who want their work to be felt: by viewers when a title plays instantly, by creators when they go live the same day, by Content Ops when a workflow runs itself, and by the business when the platform stops being a cost center and starts being a force multiplier. The infrastructure is already there. The mandate is already there. What's missing is the people who want to build the thing, not talk about it. Come build it. This is a hybrid role based out of our Toronto office. You must be willing to travel to our Toronto office two days/week. What You'll Do: You'll work on systems that sit at the heart of Tubi's business, where the content pipeline meets the viewer, the creator, and increasingly, the AI agent. The work spans the full stack of a modern content platform: distributed services, video infrastructure, workflow automation, and applied AI, all running at

At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive. Our core philosophy is to empower developers to self-serve rather than be bottlenecked by a central quality team. We believe that by creating smart, automated tooling, we can eliminate common roadblocks, making developers happier and more productive. The Rider Quality team is focused on elevating quality, testing, and accessibility across our mobile platforms. We are currently shifting our strategy to heavily leverage automation and AI to revolutionize how we approach testing. We're not doing traditional QA - we're building the future of quality engineering. This is a chance to step into a Senior role where you won't just write code; you'll design systems that define how hundreds of engineers deliver product faster, happier, and with fewer bugs. We are fundamentally shifting away from manual processes and existing automation frameworks that struggle to keep up, betting heavily on Artificial Intelligence and agentic frameworks to drive a massive "shift left" in our organization. Success in this role is measured by tangible impact, including increased developer satisfaction, engineering hours saved, and bugs/incidents avoided in production. We are seeking a highly skilled and innovative Senior Software Engineer to join our team. You will be instrumental in building the next generation of our quality assurance platform. You will be responsible for designing and developing advanced AI-powered tooling for test case generation, review, and execution. Your work will directly impact our ability to provide fast, actionable feedback to developers, "shifting left" to ensure quality from the earliest stages of development.

We're a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards. The Core Infrastructure team's mission is to build and evolve the foundational platform that every Robinhood engineering team builds on — owning the systems, primitives, and developer-facing abstractions that power 24/7 trading, crypto, and global expansion. We treat infrastructure as a product: reliable, fast to provision, and invisible to the teams above it. As a Senior Staff Software Developer on Core Infrastructure, you will own the architectural evolution of three deeply interconnected domains: service mesh and connectivity, compute platform, and infrastructure provisioning. Your decisions will directly shape engineering velocity, operational reliability, and Robinhood's ability to expand to new regions and markets. This is not an operations role — it's a once-in-a-platform-lifecycle opportunity to redesign the foundation before complexity becomes permanent! This role is based in our Toronto, ON office, with in-person attendance expected at least 3 days per week. At Robinhood, we believe in the power of in-person work to accelerate progress, spark innovation, and strengthen community.
