The Role

GoPro delivers a set of world-class, cross platform, video editing applications on iOS, Android, MacOS and Windows that are collectively used by millions of people each month. These tools enable users to easily build incredible videos of their life events and share them with their family and friends.

The Video Engine team provides the cross-platform engines that power each of the GoPro applications and cloud. Those tools assemble, filter and create video edits from a variety of user's media. Being part of this team means that you will be at the center of the action, working with artists to create the best video editing experience on mobile and desktop platforms.

• Define the architectural vision with the Edit team
• Prioritize features and pool requests based on the roadmap

You will also be the referent responsible for integrating backend native modules within this framework:

• Video Engine Core: This C++, cross platform engine provides real-time playback and export of complex scenes and video edits for all kind of media, including high framerate and spherical videos. This engine is currently built on top of OpenGL and Vulkan.
• Audio Engine: An advanced audio engine with multiple effects (mixing, ducking, dynamic compression, ...) that provides real-time, sample-exact playback audio on all platforms.
• Cross platform tools: We develop core cross platform tools for use across the GoPro stack. Those include a video analysis and testing infrastructure, and various tools and libraries (logging, file management, ...).
