For many of us there’s that one podcast we never miss, and video content is part of our daily routine, whether it’s professional or personal. But how many of us truly understand the effort that goes on behind the scenes? Here at Riverside, we know it well. That’s exactly why we built an AI-powered platform that helps content creators, podcasters, marketeers, and more at major brands like Netflix, Disney, Google, and Microsoft to create high-quality content with ease.
Riverside’s technology streamlines the entire content creation process, turning ideas into professional-grade content with the highest production standards, without requiring expensive equipment or external services. The secret? AI-driven tools that replace traditional production roles like editing, directing, and design, automating the entire process at the click of a button.
About the Innovation Team At Riverside, the Innovation team is all about pushing the limits of AI to transform content creation. We work on everything from enhancing audio and video quality to automating production with machine learning, NLP, and computer vision. Whether it’s real-time rendering, intelligent editing, or new ways to process media, we turn cutting-edge research into practical tools that creators rely on. If you’re excited about shaping the future of media tech, you’ll fit right in. We’re growing fast and looking for a Processing Team Lead to own and scale our core media processing infrastructure.
On your day to day As the Processing Team Lead at Riverside, you will lead a team of backend and video engineers responsible for the company’s media processing pipeline. You’ll own the architecture and scalability of both real-time and offline processing systems, ensuring top performance and cost efficiency. Working closely with our AI, Product, and Infrastructure teams. You’ll drive innovation in how Riverside processes and optimizes large-scale video and audio data using distributed systems and cloud-native technologies, while establishing best practices for monitoring, observability, and quality control across the entire processing stack. Beyond the technical leadership, you’ll mentor and grow engineers, fostering technical excellence and a culture of ownership, creativity, and impact.
What Will Make You Stand Out?
* 5+ years of experience in software engineering, with at least 2 years leading a team.
* Proven experience with large-scale video/audio processing, streaming, or rendering systems.
* Strong knowledge of distributed systems, performance optimization, and cloud infrastructure (AWS / GCP / Kubernetes).
* Proficiency in one or more programming languages,.
* Hands-on experience with media frameworks (e.g., FFmpeg, GStreamer, WebRTC) — a big plus.
* A strong sense of product ownership and an ability to balance innovation with delivery.

Bottom line? If you wanna take part in transforming how people and businesses share their stories globally, Riverside’s your place. The work is challenging, the culture is fast-paced, and the people are exceptionally brilliant. And if that’s not enough, we guarantee that your ideas will genuinely make an impact
