What We're Looking For
We are looking for someone who is hands-on, pragmatic, and delivery-focused. You should be comfortable working independently, asking the right questions, communicating progress and risks clearly, and moving between new development, enhancements, and production issues.
Experience within the media or entertainment sector is beneficial but not essential. Strong technical capability and the ability to quickly become productive within a complex engineering environment are the key priorities.
Interview Process
The process will include a technical interview focused on your engineering experience, technical problem-solving, and relevant skills, with a potential follow-up discussion where required.
