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’s Experimentation team is responsible for building a cutting-edge platform to facilitate experimentation and support data-driven decision making within the company. We provide end-to end solution including intuitive user interface, robust and highly scalable distributed backend, and sophisticated data insights framework. We are a global distributed team with presence in US and Europe. We value technical expertise, creativity, collaboration and a strong sense of ownership.  We offer a paid 12-week internship, starting in Summer 2026. About the role  At Roku, we’re building and evolving a large-scale experimentation platform that powers data-driven decision-making across the organisation. Our system supports 5,000+ experiments per year, serves 100+ million devices, and processes over 100,000 operations per second—all while maintaining high reliability and low latency. In this role, you’ll help shape the next generation of our distributed backend. You’ll design and implement new platform capabilities such as bias avoidance mechanisms, advanced segment management, and experiment orchestration features that ensure trustworthy results at scale. At the same time, you’ll work on strengthening the system’s resilience, performance, and scalability, tackling challenges that come with high throughput and global reach. You’ll collaborate closely with engineers, data scientists, and product partners to translate experimentation needs into robust, production-ready systems. This is a hands-on role with real impact: the work you do will directly influence how teams across the company run experiments, learn faster, and make better decisions. We’re excited if you have • Currently enrolled in a full-time degree-seeking program and in the process of obtaining a bachelor's or master's degree in computer science or a related field. Due to graduate in December 2026 or later • Hands on knowledge of Java and Spring Boot. • Hands on knowledge of object-oriented design principles and distributed software architectures. • Familiarity with statistical concepts and their application within software systems. • Experience with AWS cloud services • Familiarity with Istio and Kubernetes for managing microservices and container orchestration. • Understanding of A/B testing methodologies and experience with experimentation platforms is a plus Our Hybrid Work Approach Roku fosters an inclusive and collaborative environment where teams work in the office Monday through Thursday. Fridays are flexible for remote work except for employees whose roles are required to be in the office five days a week or employees who are in offices with a five day in office policy. Benefits Roku is committed to offering a diverse range of benefits as part of our compensation package to support our employees and their families. Our comprehensive benefits include global access to mental health and financial wellness support and resources. Local benefits include statutory and voluntary benefits which may include healthcare (medical, dental, and vision), life, accident, disability, commuter, and retirement options (401(k)/pension). Our employees can take time off work for vacation and other personal reasons to balance their evolving work and life needs. It's important to note that not every benefit is available in all locations or for every role. For details specific to your location, please consult with your recruiter. Accommodations Roku welcomes applicants of all backgrounds and provides reasonable accommodations and adjustments in accordance with applicable law. If you require reasonable accommodation at any point in the hiring process, please direct your inquiries to EmployeeRelations@Roku.com. The Roku Culture Roku is a great place for people who want to work in a fast-paced environment where everyone is focused on the company's success rather than their own. We try to surround ourselves with people who are great at their jobs, who are easy to work with, and who keep their egos in check. We appreciate a sense of humor. We believe a fewer number of very talented folks can do more for less cost than a larger number of less talented teams. We're independent thinkers with big ideas who act boldly, move fast and accomplish extraordinary things through collaboration and trust. In short, at Roku you'll be part of a company that's changing how the world watches TV.  We have a unique culture that we are proud of. We think of ourselves primarily as problem-solvers, which itself is a two-part idea. We come up with the solution, but the solution isn't real until it is built and delivered to the customer. That penchant for action gives us a pragmatic approach to innovation, one that has served us well since 2002.  To learn more about Roku, our global footprint, and how we've grown, visit https://www.weareroku.com/factsheet.

If you do not wish to receive any communications from Roku regarding this role or similar roles in the future, you may unsubscribe at any time by emailing WorkforcePrivacy@Roku.com.
