Architect, develop, and deploy AI agents and copilots for Roku TV use cases, integrating them with internal systems, tools, and services. - Own end-to-end agentic systems from concept to production, including model selection, prompt and context design, retrieval strategies, backend services, and conversational interfaces. - Design and implement single-agent and multi-agent orchestration patterns, including handoffs, delegation, and cooperative task execution. - Build scalable RAG and context pipelines that provide high-quality grounding for AI systems and keep them aligned with evolving data sources and business logic. - Implement tool-calling, function-calling, and MCP-style integrations so agents can safely take actions and interact with the systems around them. - Create reusable agent templates, modular components, and paved-path patterns that accelerate adoption across teams and use cases. - Establish strong evaluation, observability, and monitoring for conversation quality, task success rate, latency, cost, and overall system performance. - Build safeguards that improve production readiness and reliability, including testing pipelines, controlled rollouts, drift detection, and mechanisms that prevent error amplification in multi-step workflows. - Prototype quickly, run experiments, and translate successful ideas into durable, scalable software solutions. - Partner closely with engineering, product, QA, infrastructure, and cross-functional teams to deliver meaningful business and customer outcomes. ### We’re excited if you have
Bachelor’s or master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Data Science, or a related technical field. - 2+ years of experience in software engineering, AI/ML engineering, backend development, or adjacent domains, with strong software engineering fundamentals and the ability to build production-grade systems. - Strong proficiency in Python, plus experience with C/C++ or another systems language. - Hands-on experience with LLM-based systems, including prompt design, retrieval, tool use, memory handling, and agent orchestration patterns. - Experience building and maintaining RAG pipelines, agent frameworks, MCP servers or equivalent function-calling architectures, and conversational interfaces. - Familiarity with cloud platforms, REST APIs, containerization, and modern deployment environments. - Experience with observability, evaluation, experimentation, and feedback loops for AI systems in production. - Ability to work independently, manage ambiguity, move quickly, and deliver incrementally in a fast-paced environment. - Excellent communication skills, sound engineering judgment, and a collaborative working style. ### Nice to have
Experience with multi-agent frameworks or orchestration systems such as LangChain, AutoGen, or Semantic Kernel. - Experience with video, audio, TV, or edge-device environments, especially where latency, cost, and hardware constraints matter. - Familiarity with ML/DL frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow. - Research experience, paper implementation experience, or a habit of applying emerging GenAI techniques pragmatically to real problems. ###### #LI-BD1
Our Hybrid Work Approach
Roku fosters an inclusive and collaborative environment where teams work in the office Monday through Thursday. Fridays are flexible for remote work except for employees whose roles are required to be in the office five days a week or employees who are in offices with a five day in office policy. ### Benefits
Roku is committed to offering a diverse range of benefits as part of our compensation package to support our employees and their families. Our comprehensive benefits include global access to mental health and financial wellness support and resources. Local benefits include statutory and voluntary benefits which may include healthcare (medical, dental, and vision), life, accident, disability, commuter, and retirement options (401(k)/pension). Employees are supported in taking time off, in accordance with local leave policies and other personal needs to support their evolving work and life needs. It's important to note that not every benefit is available in all locations or for every role. For details specific to your location, please consult with your recruiter. ### The Roku Culture
Roku is a great place for people who want to work in a fast-paced environment where everyone is focused on the company's success rather than their own. We try to surround ourselves with people who are great at their jobs, who are easy to work with, and who keep their egos in check. We appreciate a sense of humor. We believe a fewer number of very talented folks can do more for less cost than a larger number of less talented teams. We're independent thinkers with big ideas who act boldly, move fast and accomplish extraordinary things through collaboration and trust. In short, at Roku you'll be part of a company that's changing how the world watches TV. We have a unique culture that we are proud of. We think of ourselves primarily as problem-solvers, which itself is a two-part idea. We come up with the solution, but the solution isn't real until it is built and delivered to the customer. That penchant for action gives us a pragmatic approach to innovation, one that has served us well since 2002.
