About the Team

With so many people using Roku’s products globally, we’ve become well-known for products that “just work” right out of the box and integrate almost by magic. That doesn’t happen by accident, which is why we are committed to making sure our products aren’t just intuitive, they’re obvious. To support that commitment, our Labs and Innovation team at Roku works across organisations with company leadership, cross-functional stakeholders, and our internal teams to help manage the development, testing, and release of products and features. Our team focuses in providing custom environments suitable for facilitating manual and automation testing, in a scalable manner, that helps improve efficiency to enhance productivity of all engineering teams. We accomplish this by using state of the art technology and engineering to make it happen, with consideration for the customer as the center of all that we do.
