Description
At Hudl, we build great teams. We hire the best of the best to ensure you’re working with people you can constantly learn from. You’re trusted to get your work done your way while testing the limits of what’s possible and what’s next. We work hard to provide a culture where everyone feels supported, and our employees feel it—their votes helped us become one of Newsweek's Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces.
We think of ourselves as the team behind the team, supporting the lifelong impact sports can have: the lessons in teamwork and dedication; the influence of inspiring coaches; and the opportunities to reach new heights. That’s why we help teams from all over the world see their game differently. Our products make it easier for coaches and athletes at any level to capture video, analyze data, share highlights and more.
Ready to join us?
We’re hiring a Senior Software Engineer to join our Core Data team in London.
This team builds the systems that power how Hudl understands sport at scale. From identifying players and teams across thousands of leagues to processing the moments that become highlights, stats and analysis, our services sit at the center of Hudl’s platform.
As a Senior Engineer, you’ll help shape the technical direction of the Global Sports Library (GSL), the backbone that connects identities, metadata and game context across Hudl products. You’ll design and evolve APIs, distributed systems and large-scale data pipelines that ensure Hudl products operate from a consistent understanding of the game.
This role is deeply backend-focused and comes with significant ownership. You’ll tackle complex engineering challenges around scalability, entity resolution, data consistency and platform architecture, while helping raise the technical bar across the team through design leadership, mentoring and pragmatic decision-making.
The systems you build won’t support just one product or one sport. They’ll become shared capabilities used across Hudl’s ecosystem, powering experiences for teams, athletes and fans around the world.
For this role, we're currently considering candidates who live within a commuting distance of our office in London.
