Software Engineering Manager - Magic: Shaping the future of video
Clipchamp is the go-to video platform with one simple mission: to empower anyone to tell stories worth sharing. Since 2016 we’ve attracted over seventeen million registered users globally and counting, and that’s only the beginning. We've now joined Microsoft's Office Media Group (OMG) - to empower every person and organisation to achieve more with media.
Building and maintaining strong connections across location and time is critical in the world we live in, and the emotional power of media – video, audio, and photos – makes it perfect for fostering personal connections and sharing information.
Our in-browser platform and native Windows app gives users access to professional video editing tools and features alongside a one million asset-strong stock library and hundreds of editable video templates. We're the video platform that's built with everyday editors and creators in mind.
Microsoft has embraced the future with its commitment to AI, and Clipchamp is primed to simplify the video production process through AI's transformative power. To do so, we're focused on integrating advanced AI technologies to streamline processes and provide exceptional user experiences. Our aspiration is to democratise AI, making it accessible to all and to empower individuals with AI-powered productivity enhancements. Our commitment to this is reflected in our efforts to improve product performance, automate tasks, and provide insightful analysis.
About the Team
While Clipchamp is predominantly based in Australia, Office Media Group is a global team with offices in five countries. Joining Clipchamp means you'll join a team of colleagues who live all around the world. We’re committed to each team member feeling connected, regardless of where they work and live.
About the Squad
The magic squad is a highly dedicated team who specialise in improving the video creation experience with automagical capabilities. They work on designing, developing, and implementing AI-based technologies to create innovative and advanced features to enhance Clipchamp’s user experience.
Clipchamp’s Technical Stack
The majority of our infrastructure is currently hosted in Google Cloud, with a plan to migrate to Microsoft equivalents. We also use Datadog for application health monitoring and Cloudflare for our content delivery network.
Our video editing experience lives completely in-browser, which means pushing the boundaries of what web technologies can do. We hold a high bar for performance and user experience and invest in unique technologies like in-browser file caching, video composition, and video encoders.
Our frontend codebase is built on React, TypeScript, WebAssembly, ServiceWorkers, and WebGL. On the backend we use Python and are introducing C# for native apps and services. We deploy code to production daily, supported by a culture of automated testing and our dedicated engineering productivity team.
