NBCUniversal is searching for a Production Reliability Engineer who thrives at the intersection of broadcast systems and IT — someone who understands that in 2026, reliability means software-defined signal flow, IP networks, and an engineer’s intuition for when something “just doesn’t look right.”

As a Production Reliability Engineer, you’ll help ensure the continuous operation of our live production, routing, and playout systems across both baseband and SMPTE 2110 IP environments. You’ll be part of the team that designs, maintains, and evolves complex infrastructure supporting 24/7 broadcast operations for NBC.

• Support and optimize SMPTE 2110 environments, primarily Evertz EXE and Magnum routing systems.
• Maintain and integrate legacy and hybrid infrastructures, including Grass Valley NV9000 routers.
• Collaborate with teams managing production systems like Cisco ACI networks, DNF control systems, EVS Playback systems, Vizrt and Chyron/XPression graphics, RTS, Ross Robotics, Calrec Artemis audio consoles, and Sony switchers and cameras.
• Diagnose and reverse-engineer complex system interactions — both hardware and software — to improve reliability and performance.
• Create and update signal flow and network documentation using Lucidchart and CAD for wiring drawings.
• Participate in continuous improvement initiatives focused on observability, system redundancy, and workflow automation.
• Act as support escalation contact for emergencies and troubleshooting.
