About the Team

Our team is responsible for a large part of the server-side development — camera integration and support. We work with a wide variety of camera manufacturers, each using different protocols (IP-based, TCP/UDP, HTTP, SOAP, ONVIF, and various proprietary text and binary protocols).

The integration team investigates and supports these protocols, often performing reverse engineering. A significant part of the work involves debugging issues on local and remote devices using tools like Wireshark.

Our software runs on a wide range of hardware and operating systems. We build efficient, portable solutions using modern C++ (C++20/23), along with CMake, Conan, and Git.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Examine various camera APIs and develop plugins for different vendors
• Add support for new cameras and devices (NVRs, DVRs, intercoms, IP speakers, etc.)
• Implement support for new camera features and capabilities
• Maintain and improve camera support on the server side
• Collaborate with the core server team to enhance camera-server interaction
• Investigate Wireshark logs and server logs to diagnose and resolve issues reported by technical support
• Troubleshoot complex problems, including server crashes and device-specific issues
• Interact with device manufacturers to improve and stabilize integrations
• Refactor existing code and increase unit and functional test coverage
• Participate in code reviews
• Assist the Support team in analyzing complex field issues

Domain / Areas of Work

Each integration typically involves working across multiple protocols and includes:

• Camera discovery
• Capability detection
• Configuration management
• Device control
• Media stream handling
• Video analytics data processing

Camera Features You’ll Work With

• Audio/video sources and encoders
• PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom)
• Advanced hardware features (wipers, heaters, etc.)
• Speakers and IO ports
• Security features (doorbells, locks, alarms)

Advanced Video Analytics

• Event detection (line crossing, loitering, etc., 50+ types)
• Object tracking and classification
• Recognition (license plates, faces, etc.)
• Analytics configuration (regions of interest, rules, etc.)
