RF, IP & Live Production Workflows

About CineArk

CineArk is the trusted technical partner to the world’s most ambitious productions, from studio features to high-end television and broadcast. Operating from London, Dublin, and Cardiff, we specialise in video, RF, data, DIT, internet and comms, with a focus on supporting physical production by connecting people and technology. Our commitment to innovation, technical excellence, reliability, and support has established us as the leading specialist in our field.

Role Overview

We’re looking for a Broadcast Technical Supervisor to join our growing technical team and support CineArk’s expansion into the broadcast and live production sector. The role is primarily office-based at our Wooburn Green HQ, but as this is a new and evolving service line, the level of on-site work required may vary and is currently hard to predict.

This position is ideal for someone who is deeply passionate about broadcast technology, thrives on problem-solving, and enjoys staying on the cutting edge of industry innovation. You’ll need a broad technical foundation spanning RF systems, IP-based signal flow, vision and colour workflows, and modern audio protocols.

Key Responsibilities

Support the design, setup, and testing of RF and IP-based transmission and monitoring systems for live production environments.
Interpret and assist in building complex signal flow diagrams, integrating both baseband (e.g. SDI) and IP infrastructure.
Provide remote and on-site technical support for live deployments as needed.
Collaborate with engineers and clients to troubleshoot and resolve issues quickly and effectively.
Maintain quality control across audio, video, and transmission workflows, including colour pipelines (e.g. log formats, HDR).
Assist with internal system maintenance and workflow documentation.
Stay current with emerging technologies and standards (e.g. SMPTE ST 2110, AES67, NMOS, Dante, Dolby Vision).
Participate in R&D and attend trade shows to support CineArk’s technical evolution.
Contribute to workflow development for remote and hybrid productions.
Support sound workflows where relevant, including RF coordination and Bolero comms system integration.

What We're Looking For

Proven experience in a live broadcast, RF engineering, or technical broadcast role (either studio or field-based).
Hands-on experience with wireless video transmission systems, including RF camera links, COFDM systems, and frequency coordination.
Understanding of IP-based media infrastructure, including ST 2110, AES67, PTP, and VLANs.
Awareness of colour workflows (e.g. Log gamma, LUTs, HDR, SDR, Dolby Vision).
Familiarity with Dante audio networking and NMOS device control standards.
Exposure to remote production or distributed workflow setups.
Comfortable interpreting and troubleshooting complex signal flows across baseband and IP layers.
Awareness of vision mixing systems and broadcast audio/video QC standards.
Problem-solver with a proactive mindset and strong communication skills.
Willingness to travel occasionally and work flexibly to support live deployments.

Desirable but not essential

Knowledge of sound guarantee workflows and Bolero systems.
Experience with vision shading, waveform/vectorscope operation, or multiview monitoring.
