Video Platform Backend, API & SDKs - Rixl

Contract work. Rixl is a platform that lets companies upload, process and stream video and images through one API. I work on the core platform as a backend engineer.
What I built
The pipeline that turns uploaded videos into adaptive streams that play smoothly on any device or connection
Usage-based billing, with plan limits enforced automatically
An analytics service behind customer dashboards, built so one heavy report cannot slow down everyone else
One API spec that generates client SDKs in eight languages, kept in sync automatically
Shown here is only what is public, the documentation and the open-source SDKs.
Docs at docs.rixl.com and SDKs at github.com/rixlhq
