Software Engineer II - Fan Team

Lexington, United States

Building a team starts with valuing the team. We hire the best of the best to ensure you’re working with people you can constantly learn from. You’re trusted to get your work done your way while testing the limits of what’s possible and what’s next. We work hard to provide a culture where everyone feels supported, and our employees feel it—their votes helped us become one of Newsweek's Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces in 2023.

We also value sports. Not just because of the big wins and highlight-worthy plays, but because of the lasting impact sports can have: the lifelong lessons in teamwork and dedication; the influence of inspiring mentors; the priceless opportunities to play at the next level. Sports can change lives—that’s what we value.

Our team helps the world see sports differently through products that make it easier to capture video, analyze data, share highlights and do a lot more.

Your Role

We’re looking for a Software Engineer II to join our Fan team, which is focused on bringing teams and athletes closer to their fans through our new fan experience. Everything amateur sports fans need is in one place, like livestream game broadcasts, highlight reels, tickets, rosters, scores and more. 

In this role, you will: 

  • Collaborate. By working closely with a cross-functional team across Engineering, Quality, Product, Design, and Scrum, you’ll help improve our video livestreaming infrastructure on our web, mobile, and TV apps.
  • Deliver full-stack web and mobile features. We iterate rapidly and deploy changes to the product hundreds of times a day across our engineering team.
  • Propose new solutions. You’ll have the opportunity to solve technical challenges and provide guidance to less experienced engineers.

For this role, we're currently considering candidates who live within a commuting distance of our offices in Lexington, KY. We expect candidates to work from our office at least four days weekly.

Must-Haves

  • Exposure to mature, full-stack web application code. You have 2+ years of experience building across many levels of a web application, from client-side code down to the database. 
  • A collaborative, team-first mindset. You know building excellent software is a team effort and you’re willing to collaborate with others to get to the best outcome—whether that means providing input in technical discussions, pitching in when a teammate needs a hand, or providing quality feedback in code review.
  • Experience independently navigating uncertainty. You’re used to working with many possible implementation options and know how to identify the one that pragmatically balances quality, consistency and delivering immediate customer value.
  • Curiosity. You’ve picked up new technologies and domains on the job and know what form of learning helps you most. Working across myriad layers of the stack and multiple products energizes you.

Nice-to-Haves

  • Professional background in C#, React, MongoDB and/or AWS. Adjacent languages, frameworks and services used at scale are relevant experiences, but a direct background in our core technologies is a plus.
  • Video processing and storage experience. You’ve used tools like ffmpeg, or video livestreaming protocols like HLS, RTMP, SRT, or similar.
  • Mobile development know-how. Hudl is heavily invested in React Native to bring our fan experience to iOS, Android, and a variety of OTT (TV) platforms with a single codebase, so experience with React Native or mobile development (native iOS or Android) would be an asset in this role.
  • Experience working with hybrid teams. Our engineering team is spread across the U.S. with a combination of people working in the office and remotely. A background working with global teams isn’t a must but will help you adapt more quickly to Hudl’s culture.

Our Role

  • Champion work-life harmony. We’ll give you the flexibility you need in your work life (e.g., flexible vacation time, company-wide holidays and timeout (meeting-free) days, remote work options and more) so you can enjoy your personal life too.
  • Guarantee autonomy. We have an open, honest culture and we trust our people from day one. Your team will support you, but you’ll own your work and have the agency to try new ideas. 
  • Encourage career growth. We’re lifelong learners who encourage professional development. We’ll give you tons of resources and opportunities to keep growing.
  • Provide an environment to help you succeed. We've invested in our offices, designing incredible spaces with our employees in mind. But whether you’re at the office or working remotely, we’ll provide you the tech stack and hardware to do your best work.
  • Support your mental and physical health. We care about our employees’ wellbeing. Our Employee Assistance Program, employee resource groups and fitness partner Peerfit have you covered.
  • Cover your medical insurance. We have multiple plans to pick from to ensure you’ll have the coverage you (and your dependents) want, including vision, dental, fertility healthcare and family forming benefits.
  • Contribute to your 401(K). Yep, that’s free money. We’ll match up to 4% of your own contribution.

Inclusion at Hudl

Hudl is an equal opportunity employer. Through our actions, behaviors and attitude, we’ll create an environment where everyone, no matter their differences, feels like they belong. 

We offer resources to ensure our employees feel safe bringing their authentic selves to work, including employee resource groups and communities. But we recognize there’s ongoing work to be done, which is why we track our efforts and commitments in annual inclusion reports

We also know imposter syndrome is real and the confidence gap can get in the way of meeting spectacular candidates. Please don’t hesitate to apply—we’d love to hear from you.
