Description
Teamwork makes the stream work.
Roku is changing how the world watches TV
Roku is the #1 TV streaming platform in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, and we've set our sights on powering every television in the world. Roku pioneered streaming to the TV. Our mission is to be the TV streaming platform that connects the entire TV ecosystem. We connect consumers to the content they love, enable content publishers to build and monetize large audiences, and provide advertisers unique capabilities to engage consumers.
From your first day at Roku, you'll make a valuable - and valued - contribution. We're a fast-growing public company where no one is a bystander. We offer you the opportunity to delight millions of TV streamers around the world while gaining meaningful experience across a variety of disciplines.
About the team
Roku TV is where embedded systems, media experiences, and intelligent software come together at massive scale. The Roku TV organization builds technology used on millions of TVs globally, and the team is already applying AI to demanding TV problems in resource-constrained environments where quality, performance, and reliability matter. As part of this team, you will help define how agentic AI systems are designed, built, and operated for Roku TV use cases. This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who treats AI agent design as an engineering discipline: architecting durable systems, grounding them in the right context, integrating them with tools and services, and making them reliable in production.
About the role
We are looking for a hands-on, systems-oriented Agentic AI Engineer to design, build, and maintain intelligent agents and copilots that drive automation, accelerate workflows, and unlock new product and platform capabilities for Roku TV. You will own the full lifecycle of agent development—from prototyping and architecture through orchestration, evaluation, deployment, observability, and continuous improvement. You will contribute directly to Roku’s AI strategy by engineering reusable components, optimizing agent workflows, and ensuring strong real-world performance in production environments.
How will I use AI at Roku?
At Roku, we don’t just use AI, we work with it. AI agents and smart tools help power drafts, analysis, and repetitive workflows, while our people bring direction, judgment, and accountability. We’re looking for curious, adaptable builders who can show how they’ve used AI or automation to move faster, raise the bar, and scale their impact.
We value your AI skills if have built fluency across the agentic engineering toolchain — coding harnesses like Claude Code or Cursor, MCP servers, custom skills, or agent frameworks. And you can describe projects where you shipped real work with these tools. You know how to drive an agent, verify its output, and ramp on an unfamiliar codebase with an agent helping you.
What you’ll be doing
Architect, develop, and deploy AI agents and copilots for Roku TV use cases, integrating them with internal systems, tools, and services.
Own end-to-end agentic systems from concept to production, including model selection, prompt and context design, retrieval strategies, backend services, and conversational interfaces.
Design and implement single-agent and multi-agent orchestration patterns, including handoffs, delegation, and cooperative task execution.
Build scalable RAG and context pipelines that provide high-quality grounding for AI systems and keep them aligned with evolving data sources and business logic.
Implement tool-calling, function-calling, and MCP-style integrations so agents can safely take actions and interact with the systems around them.
Create reusable agent templates, modular components, and paved-path patterns that accelerate adoption across teams and use cases.
Establish strong evaluation, observability, and monit
