About Livepeer:

Livepeer is on a mission to build the world's open video infrastructure. Founded in 2017, it is the world's first open-source protocol for decentralized video streaming, built on Ethereum. The project has empowered developers to create scalable, cost-effective, and censorship-resistant video applications. The Livepeer network has transcoded billions of minutes, serving Web3 and Web2 platforms across gaming, entertainment, social media, and beyond. In 2024, Livepeer AI was introduced, unlocking Livepeer's compute network for AI inference workflows. From real-time video transcription and object detection to scene recognition and AI-powered editing, Livepeer AI brings advanced machine learning directly into the decentralized video stack. These new tools not only reduce costs but also empower developers to build richer, smarter, and more engaging video experiences—whether for Web3 platforms, AI-powered dApps, or traditional video use cases.

Your Role:

Livepeer AI is seeking an experienced, self-driven SRE Engineer—someone passionate about building tools, automating processes, and delivering reliable production experiences. You will ensure all user-facing services and Livepeer's production systems operate smoothly. The ideal candidate has expertise in systems (operating systems, storage, networking, GPU clusters, Docker) and implements best practices for availability, reliability, and scalability. A broad interest in algorithms and distributed systems is also valued.

We value reliability and craftsmanship in infrastructure, focusing on both form and function. You should be comfortable communicating with developers and designers alike. Your goal will be to ensure the final product is of high quality and functions as intended.
