Responsibilities
  • Participate in the design, development, and continuous optimization of live streaming core services, improving system quality and engineering efficiency

  • Strong logical thinking and problem decomposition skills, able to independently analyze complex problems and drive resolution
  • Strong technical curiosity and self-driven learning ability, willing to understand systems at a fundamental level rather than staying at the surface
  • Good communication, collaboration skills, and a strong sense of engineering ownership

Experience in distributed system design or large-scale service governance
