DESCRIPTION
Application deadline: Oct 14, 2026
Prime Video Live Sports delivers live events to tens of millions of customers worldwide - NFL Thursday Night Football, NBA, NHL, NASCAR, MLB, UEFA Champions League, Roland Garros, Wimbledon, and more. The Technical Operations team is the engineering backbone of every broadcast: responsible for the planning, signal integrity, and on-the-ground execution of the infrastructure that makes each live event possible.
We are looking for a Broadcast Engineer who brings deep technical expertise and a willingness to do whatever the production requires - from architecting signal flows and managing vendor deployments to pulling cable on a truck an hour before airtime. If you thrive in the controlled chaos of live sports production and take personal ownership of every broadcast you touch, we want to hear from you.
This is a remote-based role with regular travel to live events, on-location productions, and our Culver City, CA headquarters - the home base for Prime Video Live Sports.
Key job responsibilities
Project Management & Cross-Functional Coordination
Technical Integration Management
Remote Deployment & Vendor Oversight
Event Readiness and Technical Execution
A day in the life
Every broadcast begins long before the red light. You arrive at the venue to confirm vendor gear integrates to plan, Prime Video systems are healthy, and contribution circuits are live.
Once rolling, you support the full signal chain, monitoring paths, checking in with truck technicians, logging drift and driving it to resolution before it becomes a problem. On-site tests for new initiatives run alongside live production, so you coordinate those while providing engineering support from power to specialty cameras, graphics, and comms.
Between events, you partner with technical operations, production, and vendor teams to move initiatives to their next milestones, flagging risks early and keeping standards high.
About the team
The Prime Video Live Sports Technical Operations team supports live sports properties in the US and internationally. The team works closely with production operations, audio, comms, graphics, cloud engineering, and Technical Integration Management to raise the technical bar on our broadcasts and evolve our production model. We oversee vendor supplying various mobile production facilities, manage Prime Video-owned broadcast equipment across remote integrations, and coordinate with centralized production facilities and a Broadcast Operations Center to deliver events at scale.
We are engineers who take pride in doing the work, not just overseeing it.

- File post-event technical reports, track recurring issues, and evaluate emerging broadcast technologies for workflow improvements.
Remote Deployment & Vendor Oversight
- Plan and execute remote deployments end-to-end: scope, technical solutions, logistics, and readiness confirmation.
- Oversee vendor and contractor performance against SLAs; liaise with third-party operators, host broadcasters, and equipment vendors on signal flow and handoff procedures.
- Track risks across concurrent deployments; manage vendor relationships, performance evaluations, and procurement decisions.
Event Readiness and Technical Execution
- Set up, operate, and troubleshoot live broadcast systems: video/audio routing, cameras, encoding, replay, intercom, IP transport, and transmission.
- Coordinate signal flows, conduct pre-show validations, and deploy contribution circuits (fiber, satellite, IP) with carriers and partners.
- Serve as on-site technical contact; monitor signal quality in real time, troubleshoot failures, and ensure compliance with broadcast standards.

Senior Level Production Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a senior level production engineer job?
Employers hiring at the senior level look for engineers who have owned production outcomes end to end, not just executed tasks. Demonstrating that you have led process improvement initiatives, resolved systemic reliability issues, and mentored junior engineers will set you apart. A strong track of cross-functional collaboration and the ability to translate technical findings into business decisions is what moves a candidate from mid-level consideration to senior.
Which companies hire senior level production engineers?
Companies hiring senior level production engineers right now include Anthropic, Fluidstack, and GIC, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Hiring at this level comes primarily from large manufacturers, energy producers, and technology-driven industrial operations that need engineers who can own complex production environments with minimal oversight.
Are there remote senior level production engineer jobs?
Yes, though many roles require at least some on-site presence given the hands-on nature of production work. About 42% of senior level production engineer openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with fully remote opportunities tending to concentrate in process engineering, technical program management, and roles supporting distributed manufacturing operations.
What makes a production engineer role senior level?
Senior level production engineer roles are defined by scope and ownership. Where a mid-level engineer executes within a defined process, a senior engineer sets the technical direction, owns outcomes across the production system, and is accountable when things go wrong. Senior roles also carry an expectation of mentoring less experienced engineers and influencing decisions beyond your immediate function, including capital planning and cross-team process design.
Which industries hire the most senior level production engineers?
Senior level production engineer roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Science & Research, and Consulting & Professional Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive hiring at this level because they operate complex, high-stakes production environments where experienced engineers who can own reliability, efficiency, and continuous improvement are critical to operations.
