Broadcast IP Engineer (SMPTE ST 2110 Expert) Freelance / Contract
French Speaking Required
Are you passionate about building the future of live media production?
We’re looking for a Broadcast IP Engineer with deep expertise in SMPTE ST 2110 to help design, deploy, and operate next-generation IP-based broadcast systems. You’ll work at the intersection of broadcast engineering and high-performance IP networking, supporting mission-critical live production environments where reliability, timing, and quality are everything.
This is a chance to play a key role in modernising broadcast infrastructure and shaping how live content is produced and delivered.
Design, deploy, and support SMPTE ST 2110-based video, audio, and data workflows
Configure and operate multicast IP networks (IGMP, PIM, QoS) for real-time media transport
Integrate broadcast systems and endpoints across Cisco-based IP infrastructures
Work with broadcast controllers such as Cerebrum for system orchestration and control
Support live production environments, troubleshooting media-over-IP signal flows and performance issues
Collaborate with broadcast engineers, IT/network teams, and vendors to deliver robust, scalable solutions
Contribute to system design, documentation, testing, and continuous improvement of IP broadcast workflows
Hands-on experience with SMPTE ST 2110 (video, audio, ancillary data)
Strong knowledge of NMOS , PTP / IEEE 1588 , and real-time media transport
Solid understanding of IP networking in production environments (Ethernet switching, routing, multicast IGMP/PIM, QoS)
Experience with Cisco networking in broadcast or media environments (including tools such as IPFM)
Good understanding of broadcast media flows: SDI, IP transport, uncompressed video, compression concepts
Experience working with professional broadcast equipment and endpoint media devices
Experience with Cerebrum broadcast control systems
Background in live production, OB trucks, studios, or remote production environments
Experience migrating facilities from SDI to IP
If you’re excited by the challenge of building state-of-the-art IP broadcast infrastructures and want to work on high-profile, real-world media systems, we’d love to hear from you.
