Company: Network Optix

Location: Walnut Creek, CA 94598

Description:

Network Optix (Nx) is a powerhouse in video software development, driven by a mission to empower the creation of intelligent video-based solutions and products capable of converting video into actionable data. Over a decade in the making, the Network Optix Enterprise Video Platform helps innovative organizations rapidly and affordably build world-class, custom-tailored, enterprise-scale video products and solutions.

We have locations in Walnut Creek, CA, Burbank, CA, and Oregon in the USA, and distributed teams around the globe (Taiwan, Australia, France, Spain, and Serbia to name a few). Nx is profitable and actively invests in expanding into new domains. We are growing our teams cross-functionally and across the globe.

Our product is a distributed cross-platform video management system (VMS). The mission of our team is to constantly ensure and maintain the high quality of our product.

We develop large-scale integration tests and make them work robustly. Because our quality standards are high, we have a well-developed infrastructure for integration testing, which we are constantly expanding and improving. We have a great engineering culture and no untouchable legacy code.

We're looking for engineers with a diverse set of skills to bring a unique experience to the team. We're interested in candidates with software design and architecture expertise, Windows, Linux or macOS automation, Web interface automation, network programming, and system programming.

We've done a lot; our tools fully automate:
  • Creating and running VMs with Windows, MacOS and Ubuntu;
  • Managing ARM-based RPI and Jetson just like with VMs;
  • Setting up Windows and Linux via WinRM/WSMan/WMI and SSH;
  • Connecting devices and VMs in networks;
  • Configuring SMB and iSCSI network shares;
  • Working with physical cameras and running our virtual cameras;
  • Installing and configuring the product, connecting its instances into systems;
  • Working with our cloud services;
  • Controlling the desktop client GUI with our own Qt-based tooling;
  • Controlling the web interface of the cloud services with Robot/Selenium/webdriver;
  • Video and audio analysis;
  • Collecting product logs, OS logs, hypervisor logs, network traffic dumps, crash dumps and backtraces and other diagnostic information.

The way we work:
  • Python 3.8+;
  • Git;
  • Pre-commit reviews, linters and smoke-tests;
  • Professional growth;
  • No overtime work.

Our values:
  • Robust and clear code is more important than doing everything quickly. Our guidelines really work.
  • Stability and proper operation is more important than new functionality.
  • Understanding business values and common sense is more important than formal performance.

Hundreds of tests run for each change into the product in various environments. Thousands run every night. But there's more to do:
  • Infrastructure development to run more tests and get results faster.
  • Cloud services testing and deployment.
  • Making tests more stable and robust. We solve problems even if they're hardly reproducible, comb through logs, dumps and backtraces, use strace and procmon, read the docs and apply logic.
  • Testing VMS server embedded into cameras.
  • New tools for developers of the product, QA personnel and support engineers.

What we're looking for:
  • A high level of computer science and programming knowledge.
  • Experience with Python.
  • Experience with troubleshooting with logs, dumps and backtraces.
  • 3+ years of full-time commercial experience.

Highly desirable (at least one is required):
  • Software design and architecture.
  • Windows, Linux or macOS automation.
  • Web interface automation.
  • Network programming.
  • System programming.


What we offer
  • Competitive compensation
  • Paid time off
  • Flexible working hours
  • Hybrid work in our brand-new comfortable office
  • Employer-sponsored health coverage
  • Working with top industry experts in our international team

The position is a hybrid role and the office is located in Walnut Creek, CA. We will also consider candidates in Portland, OR.
