ABOUT THE ROLE
We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join our LRX Core team, focused on building the shared architecture and foundational layers that power Crunchyroll experiences across Smart TVs, Game Consoles, and other connected devices.
In this role, you will design and implement core client frameworks, shared modules, and platform-level capabilities that enable multiple product teams to build consistently and efficiently. You will play a key role in shaping our HTML5-based architecture, driving technical direction, and ensuring performance, scalability, and reliability across devices.
This role requires strong frontend expertise (JavaScript, TypeScript, React) and experience working with performance-constrained or platform-specific environments.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Architect and Build Core Platform Capabilities: Design, implement, and evolve shared client architecture, frameworks, and libraries used across Smart TVs and Game Consoles.
- Drive Cross-Platform Consistency: Define and enforce patterns for navigation, state management, rendering, and performance to ensure consistent behavior across devices.
- Lead Complex Technical Initiatives: Own and deliver large, cross-team projects with multiple dependencies, balancing short-term delivery with long-term architectural goals.
- Define Event-Driven and Scalable Systems: Design systems that support modular, event-driven architectures and enable extensibility across multiple clients and teams.
- Collaborate Across Teams: Partner closely with product, design, and platform teams to align on requirements, unblock development, and drive shared solutions.
- Code Quality and Technical Leadership: Lead code reviews, provide actionable feedback, and establish best practices that improve maintainability and scalability.
- Performance and Reliability: Identify and address performance bottlenecks, memory constraints, and platform-specific limitations across connected devices.
- Mentorship and Team Growth: Support and mentor engineers, helping raise the technical bar and fostering a culture of ownership and collaboration.
- Documentation and Enablement: Create clear technical documentation and guidance to enable adoption of shared systems across teams.
In the role of Senior Engineer, you will report to the Senior Engineering Manager, LRX.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Crunchyroll Visa Sponsorship Jobs USA
Target technical and product roles
Crunchyroll's sponsored positions are concentrated in engineering, product, and platform development rather than content or marketing. Candidates with software or streaming infrastructure backgrounds are better positioned to find sponsored opportunities at the company.
Leverage Sony's global footprint in your application
As a Sony subsidiary, Crunchyroll operates within a large, internationally experienced organization. Candidates with experience in global media companies or cross-border team structures may find cultural and organizational alignment easier to demonstrate.
Apply through platforms that verify sponsorship history
Not every job listing clarifies sponsorship willingness upfront. Migrate Mate surfaces verified sponsors so you can filter by real sponsorship history, saving time spent chasing companies that don't actually sponsor visas.
Time your application around content and product cycles
Media and entertainment companies like Crunchyroll often ramp up hiring around major content launches or platform expansions. Tracking product announcements and new service rollouts can help you identify when headcount is likely to grow.

Find Crunchyroll JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Crunchyroll sponsor H-1B visas?
Yes, Crunchyroll sponsors H-1B visas. The company has an active sponsorship track record, with H-1B being the most common visa type it supports. Sponsored roles tend to be in technical functions such as software engineering and product development. If you're on an H-1B, targeting those departments gives you the strongest chance of finding a fit.
Which visa types does Crunchyroll sponsor?
Crunchyroll sponsors H-1B, E-3, TN, F-1 OPT, and F-1 CPT visas. This range makes the company accessible to a variety of international candidates, including Australian citizens on the E-3, Canadian and Mexican nationals on the TN, and recent graduates completing OPT or CPT work authorization. Crunchyroll does not have a current track record of sponsoring Green Cards.
Which departments or roles at Crunchyroll are most likely to be sponsored?
Visa sponsorship at Crunchyroll is most commonly associated with technical and product roles, including software engineering, platform infrastructure, and data functions. These positions typically meet the specialty occupation standard required for H-1B and E-3 visas. Content, marketing, and operations roles are less frequently sponsored, though they are not categorically excluded.
How do I find sponsored job openings at Crunchyroll?
The most reliable approach is to use a platform that tracks real sponsorship history rather than relying on individual job listings to disclose it. Migrate Mate lists Crunchyroll among verified sponsoring employers, so you can browse current openings with confidence that the company has a documented record of sponsoring international workers. Filtering by visa type helps narrow results to roles aligned with your eligibility.
How do I approach the interview process at Crunchyroll as a visa-sponsored candidate?
Be prepared to discuss your visa status early, ideally in the recruiter screening. Crunchyroll operates within Sony's HR infrastructure, which means the sponsorship process is established and not unfamiliar to recruiters. Clarify whether you need a new H-1B petition, a transfer, or an E-3 or TN application, since each carries a different timeline and employer burden. Coming in with that clarity reduces friction and speeds up the process.
