Pixshift Media helps media organizations cut complexity and accelerate results, combining domain expertise, cloud-native engineering and agile delivery to design integrated workflows.
We work with organizations across the full media technology ecosystem, from national broadcasters to fast-growing streaming platforms.
From strategy and integration to bespoke software delivery, we cover the full technology lifecycle.
Connecting platforms, tools, systems, vendors, and workflows across the media technology stack.
Designing and delivering bespoke software solutions for media companies, broadcasters, publishers, and OTT platforms.
Helping design, shape, and deliver technology platforms for media operations, content management, streaming, and distribution.
Supporting organizations as they move from legacy systems toward modern, flexible, and scalable solutions.
Helping media businesses assess, plan, and execute migration from on-premise or hybrid infrastructure to cloud platforms.
Supporting the movement, transformation, and validation of business-critical media, metadata, archive, and operational data.
Bringing together different technologies, vendors, and workflows so they function as a coherent operational environment.
Guiding complex technology projects through the full delivery lifecycle, from discovery and planning through release and adoption.
Exploring practical ways to use AI agents, integrated workflows, and automation to reduce repetitive work and accelerate media operations.
We are not a generic IT consultancy. Pixshift Media is built specifically for the realities of media, broadcast, OTT video, and media technology.
We understand the specific language, constraints, and priorities of media, broadcasting, and OTT, including content acquisition, metadata, localization, MAM, linear play-out, and VOD workflows.
Deep market knowledge informs every design decision. We architect systems across solutions from different vendors, from early concept to validation through to deployment and go-live.
We know how to move technology initiatives from idea to working solution. From presales through design and delivery, we rely on modern tools and agile methodologies to prioritize and deliver workstreams.
Media operations don't stop. We design and deliver solutions built to hold up in demanding, always-on environments, where uptime, resilience, and performance under pressure aren't optional.
We're grounded in evidence, not opinion. Every solution is shaped by research and real data found on the ground, so decisions are authentic, defensible, and built to streamline how the business actually operates.
We're fluent in the tools and rhythms of modern, distributed work. Async updates, shared docs, real-time alignment. Clients and teams stay informed with clarity, honesty, and care at every stage.
Hans J. Buhr is the Principal Consultant and Founder of Pixshift Media. He started Pixshift to bring together a drive for innovation with 20 years of technical, commercial, and leadership experience in media technology, built through senior roles at organizations including Evertz, Red Bee Media, and Insight TV, and extensive international experience.
Where most consultancies advise from the sidelines, Hans works inside a client's existing workflows first, challenging assumptions before proposing solutions, and staying accountable for outcomes rather than recommendations. That structured, hands-on approach is what Pixshift is built around: helping media companies choose, design, and implement increasingly complex technology with confidence.
Hans is a husband and father of three with a natural pull toward discovering new places, new technologies, new ways of working, and the occasional exotic dish. That same curiosity shapes how he works – always exploring what's next, but never losing the structure and discipline needed to turn exploration into something that actually delivers.
Whether you're modernizing a legacy workflow, scaling an OTT platform, building bespoke software, or navigating a complex integration, we'd like to hear about it.
