- Build and operate cloud services using CI/CD and Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) practices.
- Learn full stack development across the full spectrum of software engineering.
- Design and build proof-of-concepts (POCs) for new content-delivery methods, including AI-assisted features such as automated content tagging, summarization, search, and personalization.

- Collaborate across teams, present your ideas, and iterate based on critical feedback.
- Follow engineering best practices while exploring new and emerging technologies.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, a Full Stack Web Development certificate paired with an Applied Science degree, or equivalent practical experience.
- ~6 months of experience in application and/or web development (internships, co-ops, and project work count).
- Working familiarity with several of the following: JavaScript, Java, Node.js/Express, Python, ReactJS, MySQL, MongoDB/Mongoose, HTML5, and CSS.
- Strong communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills.
- Exposure to Docker, microservices, Kubernetes, Terraform, Linux fundamentals, and serverless / event-driven architecture.
- Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
- Hands-on experience with AI/ML concepts or tools - for example, calling LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.), retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), vector databases, prompt engineering, or basic ML model integration.
- Curiosity about applying AI responsibly to media, content delivery, and developer productivity.
- Resume
- Cover letter
- Links to your GitHub and LinkedIn profiles
