## How to Apply
Please include in your response:
1. Your experience with similar video upload systems
2. Any specific experience with Firebase Admin + Cloud Run deployments
3. Your availability for pair programming sessions
4. Brief thoughts on how you would approach the thumbnail generation retry mechanism
