The system combines Django/React/Go application layers with RTSP video pipelines, encoder integrations, on-prem infrastructure, and a planned migration toward AWS/EKS/S3. The work includes stabilizing production deployments, improving observability and failure detection, and shaping the future architecture of a platform that will later support AI-driven surgical analysis capabilities.

Your day-to-day activities:

Contribute to the stabilization and modernization of a legacy application

Troubleshoot and resolve issues across video ingestion pipelines, RTSP streams, encoder integrations, and backend services

Collaborate with engineering and product stakeholders to identify technical debt, architectural gaps, and reliability improvements

Design, implement, and optimize scalable backend APIs and services

Contribute to the migration of platform components from on-prem infrastructure to AWS-based environments

Participate in architecture and system design discussions related to scalability, reliability, and hybrid cloud/on-prem deployments

Investigate production incidents, perform root cause analysis, and implement long-term fixes

Collaborate with cross-functional teams during backlog refinement, technical planning, and delivery execution

Document technical decisions, architecture assumptions, and operational workflows as needed

Mentor engineers and contribute to engineering best practices where appropriate
