Original job description

Samba is a media intelligence company. We know what the world is watching, reading, and thinking about — in real time, at scale, across every screen. Our data exists with the consent of over a billion people, organized into the most complete picture of consumer attention ever built. The biggest brands in the world use that picture to make smarter decisions. We think it’s the most interesting data asset on the planet, because it’s the most culturally relevant. 

Live events don't wait for business hours.

The captures start at 6 p.m. Central European Time, most of them are US sports and events, and every one needs a human to press record. Right now that's three people in Poland and one in the US, and they're good. But contractors take days off, and every time they do, there's a hole in the schedule: weekend nights, mostly.

That hole is the job.

The team captures live and on-demand video from streaming platforms and turns it into clean, checked, ingested content. The volume of live events is going up, and the bench has to grow with it.

What you'd actually do

You start the live captures and then you watch them. When something breaks (the player stops, a VPN drops on our servers, the stream buffers), an alert fires and you fix it, following our internal guidelines.

No one is awake at 3 a.m. to hold your hand, so you learn the guidelines properly. It's easier than it sounds until a live event is on the line. Live events have a lot of rules, and missing one costs us the capture.

Between live events you handle long-form recordings: capturing on-demand content, editing the video when it needs it, running quality checks against our rules, and ingesting it into our database.

You'll work in our own web apps, jump onto remote machines, and use spreadsheets. Nobody arrives already knowing our platform, because you can't hire for it on the market. We teach it.
