DevOps/Node.js Engineer — Dockerize Remotion Video Pipeline with Queue System (Local Desktop Setup)

We have an existing Node.js + Remotion video rendering pipeline (currently running on cloud infrastructure). We need someone to package a separate local version for personal desktop use, with batch processing queues. Scope: Dockerize the full stack (Node.js backend + Remotion renderer) with docker-compose for one-command startup Build a generation queue: batch-create 10-20 video projects (script + duration), system auto-assigns clips/voiceover to each in background Build an export queue: batch-export multiple reviewed projects sequentially or with limited parallelism Configure environment variables separate from production (personal API keys for Claude/Cartesia) Configure Remotion to leverage GPU acceleration (NVIDIA RTX 5070) rather than CPU-only rendering Ensure assets are fetched directly from R2/S3 storage, not through a CDN edge (we identified this as a stability issue in our cloud version) Tech stack: Node.js, Remotion, Docker, Cloudflare R2/S3, Claude API, Cartesia API Requirements: Strong Docker/docker-compose experience Node.js backend experience Experience with Remotion, Puppeteer, or similar Chromium-based rendering Experience with job queues (BullMQ, Bull, or similar) — bonus GPU acceleration configuration experience for Chromium/headless rendering — bonus Budget: $350 Timeline: 5 days
