<p>The general mindset required for working with amagi’s engineering team:</p>
<ul>
<li>We are interested in your experiences and not in the number of years you spent figuring that out.</li>
<li>You like software. In the current and past jobs, you developed large scale software for server side systems or consumer electronic devices or web based systems.</li>
<li>You are a good writer, speaker and listener. You like white boarding of your thoughts (because we do ). Elegance and design are synonyms for you. You like details, details, details and documenting all of those.</li>
<li>You enjoy coding. You write code, and have written tons of programs that are running in systems worldwide. You feel proud of the code you write; and the code that your team writes matters to you. You like code that is simple and elegant.</li>
<li>You have worked in small high-performing teams. You critique others work and are open to criticism about your work from others.</li>
<li>You enjoy writing detailed test plans and test specifications and write your own unit / module level test cases. You feel ashamed if test teams break your code.</li>
<li>You are extremely proficient in any one or more of the programming languages, and believe that you are in the top 5 percentile worldwide.</li>
<li>You like scripting needed in Perl, Python or any others as needed, and understand the power and perils that they entail.</li>
<li>You take responsibility for the task you took and understand that freedom and responsibility go together. You enjoy freedom and need no guidance.</li>
<li>You know by experience that whatever you don’t understand you can learn quickly</li>
<li>You will question conventional approaches and always strive to be different in the way you do things, of course for the better</li>
<li>You have a Bachelors / Masters / PhD in Computer science, Electronics, Mathematics, Physics or any other discipline that forced you to exercise your intellect.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="embedded">Embedded software engineering</h3>
<p>amagi needs your help in building targeted ad insertion solution on digital video receivers.</p>
<ul>
<li>You love working close to hardware and are a masochist when it comes to hard-to-solve memory leaks, MIPS issues and interrupt latencies.</li>
<li>You've got experience with a number of real time operating systems such as Linux, ThreadX, and Nucleus. In particular you have worked with file systems, memory management, concurrency, mutual exclusion and message processing in real time operating system scenarios.</li>
<li>You have a deep understanding of fundamental data structures and algorithms, particularly those that might apply to file systems, data communication protocols and real-time media processing.</li>
<li>You have experience in working with digital media technologies (especially MPEG-2 or MPEG-4) at systems layer.</li>
<li>You may have experience in digital video broadcasting systems. You may have worked in set top box platforms with digital media processors and DVB middleware.</li>

You have experience in building server side solutions using JAVA back end</li>
<li>You appreciate OO concepts, and are proficient in at least one of the object oriented languages</li>
<li>You like analytical modeling of solution spaces and appreciate algorithm development starting with test case development. You have implemented heuristics and approximations algorithms for intractable problems that occur in real-life, and using Don Knuth’s book is a norm at work for you.</li>
<li>You understand the gritty details of writing carrier grade software applications that runs 24 x 7</li>
<li>You understand the issues in implementing large data servers: especially in handling transmission, memory, latency and disk storage.</li>
<li>You have a deep understanding of fundamental data structures and algorithms, particularly those that might apply to database designs, storage technology and communication protocols</li>
<li>You have experience in designing efficient databases and have spent excruciating long hours normalizing databases to squeeze the most efficient design for your system</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="internet_ui">Internet UI software</h3>
<p>amagi needs your help to build the web based tools and front-end required for advertisers.</p>
<li>Building user friendly user interfaces is your passion.</li>
