About The Team

Our team members are smart, collegial, collaborative, and focused on building the best-in-class platform. We foster a culture of experimentation, looking for the best idea to take the day. As a leader on this team, our Director, Development Operations, models this behaviour: If we’re not trying new things, we’re not growing. We need to grow and adapt so that Roku stays on top.

• Provide technical leadership to the team with your experience and focus on simplifying and accelerating developer experience. Lead trust platform, provide automation and tools to developers, security observability, and cloud security governance.

We are expanding in India, so part of your time in this role will involve working closely with the rest of engineering in supporting a development centre in India and attracting the best talent there.
• Work with senior management and align roadmaps, communication strategy, and evolution of the platform based on their feedback and users of our platform.
• Act as a product manager for the organization by designing mechanisms to deeply understand our internal customers who use the platform and their pain points.
