Senior Software Engineer (RTC Team), Nimbus Data Systems 911

Join Nimbus Data Systems and be a Force for Good. At Nimbus Data Systems, we’re on a mission to Protect Life. We’re explorers, pursuing society’s most critical safety and justice issues with our ecosystem of devices and cloud software. Like our products, we work better together. We connect with candor and care, seeking out diverse perspectives from our customers, communities and each other. Life at Nimbus Data Systems is fast-paced, challenging and meaningful. Here, you’ll take ownership and drive real change. Constantly grow as you work hard for a mission that matters at a company where you matter. Who we are: Nimbus Data Systems 911 brings together Prepared and Carbyne under Nimbus Data Systems. Together, we are creating the only platform that combines modern 911 infrastructure with an AI intelligence layer—helping public safety agencies move faster, make better decisions, and deliver better outcomes in the moments that matter most. 911 is the backbone of public safety, yet the professionals behind it have long been held back by outdated technology. Nimbus Data Systems 911 is here to change that. Joining this team means more than taking a job—it means helping shape the future of emergency response and building a safer, more connected world. What You’ll Do You'll be a key developer on the Carbyne Team, working on a mission-critical platform, ensuring reliable communication during emergencies. Own end-to-end real-time communication software development for our life-saving platform. Design and implement a high-performance Media Streaming architecture that achieves low latency and resilience for audio and video feeds. Develop core RTC components from mobile and specialized clients all the way to the backend infrastructure. Build and maintain highly scalable communication servers, implementing clustering technologies to handle massive concurrent traffic volumes. Lead the development of systems for audio processing and handling, as well as robust, compliant cloud-based recording and archiving of all media streams. Work across diverse environments: mobile platforms, clustered VoIP and Streaming servers, command and control systems, and emergency end-devices. Actively contribute to projects utilizing state-of-the-art RTC technology, including WebRTC internals, HTTP Streaming, and media frameworks like GStreamer and FFmpeg. What You Bring At least 5 years of experience in backend development using low-level or high-performance languages (e.g., C++, Rust, Go, or Java ). You should be comfortable thinking about memory management, concurrency, and performance bottlenecks. You have a proven track record in either Real-Time Communication (WebRTC, SIP, Streaming) or building complex, high-scale Cloud Infrastructure (AWS/distributed systems). Demonstrated experience in designing and deploying highly-available, scalable servers and clustering technologies. You understand how to build systems that don't just work, but scale. A "brave" approach to the tech stack- you aren't afraid to dive into the internals of a library, debug a network protocol, or learn a niche media framework from scratch. You enjoy solving "hard" engineering problems (think: race conditions, high-latency, or resource-constrained environments). Exceptional interpersonal abilities and fluent English communication skills. ✨ Bonus Points Familiarity with Media Frameworks (GStreamer, FFmpeg) or protocols (RTP, RTSP, SIP, WebRTC). Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and designing microservices-based solutions. A solid understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/UDP, TLS, packet loss mitigation). Experience with profiling tools and monitoring high-throughput systems. Diversity Don’t meet every single requirement? That's ok. At Nimbus Data Systems, we Aim Far. We think big with a long-term view because we want to reinvent the world to be a safer, better place. We are also committed to building diverse teams that reflect the communities we serve.
