About the role
structured by ORICloudglue - Video Understanding Infrastructure Cloudglue is a Y Combinator-backed startup building developer APIs that turn video and audio into structured, searchable data. Think of us as the Stripe for video understanding - we handle the hard infrastructure (transcription, visual analysis, search, extraction) so…
What you will do
- Distributed systems: Design and operate async, fault-tolerant job execution systems that process thousands of hours of video reliably.
- Search & retrieval: Build and optimize search infrastructure across video, audio, and text - including vector search, re-ranking, and hierarchical retrieval.
- ML infrastructure: Own the serving and orchestration layer for ML models (vision, audio, language) in production.
- Performance & reliability: Profile and optimize throughput, latency, and cost across large-scale video workloads.
- Production ownership: Build systems that are observable, well-tested, and SOC2-compatible. You’ll own what you ship.
