What we’re looking for

We are looking to expand the Voice Portal team with a highly motivated, innovative and results-oriented Intermediate Developer who will help us keep a fast, reliable voice experience on Orange TV, while also keeping an eye on best practices, clean code and the onboarding of newcomers.

Voice Portal is working on the voice assistant on the Orange set-top box. People talk to the television - find a programme, change channel, control volume or playback, ask for a recommendation - and the platform turns that into an action. It serves several countries, including France and Spain, and the team works in an Agile way with colleagues across countries.

The business services are written in Kotlin with Quarkus. The real-time voice path - sign-in, the live session, speech recognition, the language model and spoken replies - is written in Go with Fiber. The platform runs in Docker and Kubernetes on Google Cloud, with Redis and Firestore behind the services.

If you are willing to know more, we will be happy to invite you to for a chat.

Who you are

• You are an experienced application developer passionate about latest technologies.
• You are able to work comfortably in a fast-changing environment on interesting technical challenges.
• You have a passion for efficiency, performance and continuous improvement.
• You enjoy growing and integrating team members and proactively support their continuous improvement.

What you’ll be doing

• Turn a spoken request into a television action: understand the intent and return the right command to the set-top box.
• Build and evolve the Kotlin services (business logic, commands, content search, the content dictionary and analytics) and the Go services (sign-in, live session, speech and language)
• Connect speech recognition, the language model and speech synthesis, and keep each country’s behaviour correct.
• Ship high-quality, well-tested, secure and clean code, on REST APIs and on the live session with the set-top box.
• Join design discussions on new voice features and make sure they fit the platform reliably.
• Take an active part in backlog grooming, sprint planning and implementation.
• Own coding, testing and debugging through the life of a feature, including how it behaves once it is deployed.

What you need to know/have

• 3+ years building backend services, with a clear view of how APIs and several services work together
• Professional experience with Kotlin or Java, on Quarkus, Spring or a similar framework
• Experience with Go, or a genuine readiness to write it day to day on the voice path
• A solid grasp of REST and HTTP, and comfort with real-time communication such as WebSockets or gRPC
• Practical experience with a document database, and a good sense of how to shape data for a service
• Comfortable with Git
• Working knowledge of Docker and Kubernetes
• Good communication skills in English (we enjoy chatting with our international colleagues)

Nice to have

• Experience with voice or conversational products (speech recognition, text-to-speech, language models, prompts)
• Familiarity with Google Cloud (Kubernetes, Firestore)
• Practical experience with Redis
• Familiarity with monitoring and observability (Prometheus, OpenTelemetry)
• Experience working in an international Agile team (Scrum)
• Previous practice with GitLab CI/CD and Helm
