Software Engineer March 2026

Fix Real Problems. Ship Real Improvements. Keep Communities Connected. Please Note: If you don't include a cover letter that addresses the questions mentioned below, your resume will not be reviewed. We're looking for a software engineer to focus on Cablecast, our flagship broadcast automation platform used by thousands of community TV stations across the country. You'll be the go-to engineer for this product: fixing bugs, shipping improvements, building internal tools, and working directly with our support team to turn customer pain into solutions. This is a role for someone who finds satisfaction in understanding a deep codebase, making it better, and keeping real users happy. If you like variety, jumping from C# backend work to React UI fixes to Rust video engine debugging to Terraform deployments, this is your kind of job. About Us: We build the easiest-to-use broadcast automation software and video servers for community media organizations. For over a decade, we've helped thousands of local communities let computers do what computers do best, so they can focus on serving their communities. We're profitable, bootstrapped, and growing. We have a small engineering team building big things, and we need someone focused on the quality and reliability of a product that thousands of organizations depend on every day. Our Core Values: Curiosity: We seek to understand. Openness: All ideas and opinions are valued. Grit: We value proactivity and perseverance. Growth: We continuously improve across people, process, and product. What You'll Do: Keep Cablecast stable and improving. You'll triage issues, dig into the codebase, and ship fixes and enhancements, making sure the product keeps getting better for our customers. Partner with our support team. Three support techs will be your closest collaborators. You'll help them understand technical issues and turn their escalations into permanent fixes. Improve internal tooling. Build and maintain tools around our CI/CD pipeline, GitHub workflows, and deployment processes to make the whole team more efficient. Work across a diverse tech stack. On any given week you might be working in C#/.NET on the server side, React/TypeScript on the UI, Rust in the video engine, or Terraform for cloud infrastructure. The Tech Stack: Backend: C# / .NET, Windows IoT deployment Frontend: JavaScript / TypeScript, React, React Router, Remix Video Engine: Rust Infrastructure: AWS, Terraform Tools: GitHub, CI/CD pipelines The Team: We're a small, remote, cross-functional team: engineers, a UI/UX developer, support techs, and a training specialist, all working closely together. You'll report to the engineering lead and collaborate most directly with our three support technicians, who are your window into what customers are experiencing day to day. You're a Good Fit If You: You're comfortable navigating a large, established codebase and enjoy the challenge of understanding how things work before making them better. You can work independently to triage and fix bugs with minimal hand-holding. You're a good communicator who can translate between support/customer language and engineering. You take pride in reliability; you'd rather ship a solid fix than a flashy feature. You're curious enough to jump between C#, TypeScript, Rust, and infrastructure work without getting overwhelmed. Bonus Points: Experience with broadcast, video, or multimedia software. Familiarity with Windows IoT or embedded deployment environments. Background in Rust development. Experience improving CI/CD pipelines and developer tooling. Strong debugging skills across multiple languages and environments. Details: Salary: $85,000-$95,000 USD (negotiable based on experience) Location: Remote-friendly. The team is based in Minneapolis, MN, with an optional downtown office. Type: Full-time, exempt How to Apply: Send us a cover letter and your resume (PDF preferred). In your cover letter, tell us: Hot take time. In three paragraphs or less, give us your honest opinion on agentic AI. We want to know how (or if) you're using AI in your work, what it's actually good at, and where it lets you down. There's no right answer. We just want to see how you think about tools that are reshaping how we build software. Tell us a war story. We want to hear about a genuinely difficult bug you tracked down, ideally in a codebase you didn't write. Walk us through the hunt: the wrong turns, the breakthroughs, the moment it finally clicked. We're not looking for a polished interview answer. Details matter. Describe your ideal workday setup. Where are you working? What does your rhythm look like? When do you do your best focused work, and when do you come up for air? We're curious how you structure your day and where you get your energy. Be honest. We read every cover letter before we look at resumes, so make it count. We'll review all applications within two weeks and let you know if you're invited to continue in the process.
