Software Development Manager w/Video Streaming

I am seeking a Software Development Manager with strong hands on skills, along with deep software architecture knowledge to lead my clients research and development efforts. You will lead a team of exceptional engineers in designing, building and maintaining network video applications that will represent the core of the company’s future product lines.

This is a challenging position requiring in-depth knowledge of video streaming/ processing, video compression, TCP/IP network protocols, and embedded systems software development.

Please feel free to forward this on to anyone you may know – former co-workers, someone in the midst of a merger, golf buddies who may be open to exploring a new situation that would move them forward their career

The company is a developer & provider of next generation network video solutions for the security industry, and is pursuing an aggressive product portfolio expansion.

You need to be comfortable working in a fast-moving environment as well as working on a variety of assignments and technologies. People who are used to staid corporate environments or heads-down focusing on one thing will not be happy here; people who thrive on creating innovative products, having a direct contribution to the success of the business, and thinking entrepreneurially will do well. We are seeking a problem solver with many years of demonstrated experience architecting and deploying high-performance, network video applications. The ideal candidate will also have experience managing product development initiatives involving multiple companies spanning the globe.

This position has extremely high visibility, and the individual that fills this position will be a key stakeholder in Our client’s overall business and strategy.

You will initially spend 75% of your time designing/developing software. The remaining 25% will be spent on management/strategic initiatives and this portion of the position is expected to increase over a short period of time as the development team is further expanded.

You will be the leader of a team responsible for the success of the research and development initiatives.

This position will play a key role in:

· Managing research and development activities to facilitate the introduction of successful new products

· Collaborating with key Our client stakeholders to create realistic and achievable product strategies, goals and roadmaps

· Building a team of software engineers who will be responsible for designing, developing, testing and documenting applications (including hiring and reviewing all research and development personnel).

· Architecting and developing software solutions that are secure, scalable, extensible and maintainable

· Leading the company’s effort to develop intellectual property which may provide a technical competitive advantage

· Overseeing off-shore contractor resources on an as needed basis, and acting as a technical liaison for communicating requirements to these teams
