The Job

As a Senior Software Developer, CNN Connected TV Devices, you will lead technical efforts to build out world‑class connected TV streaming video applications across an ever‑growing number of devices and platforms, delivering CNN to our users.

In this role you’ll make significant contributions to major features and product initiatives for our connected TV applications.

Your main focus will be on shipping: everything from brand new features, to platform ports, to bug fixes. You’ll work closely with other engineers, product, design, and research teams to plan upcoming work and deliver it consistently and predictably. You’ll also have the opportunity to learn from more experienced engineers and take on additional leadership responsibilities over time.

You’ll be making significant individual contributions in this role, but this goes beyond just coding to ship. You’ll also help your team improve over time by contributing to high‑quality software engineering practices—continuously integrating, enhancing test coverage, automating tests, reviewing code constructively, and creating low‑friction development environments. As a senior engineer, you’ll model and evangelize a positive, inclusive, and constructive way of working for your team.

• Drive significant and high‑quality code contributions to the project.
• Continually improve development processes through activities such as adding test coverage, improving automation, and documenting or refactoring code.
• Contribute to technical design and discovery activities within your team to support product roadmap definition.
• Encourage engineering best practices and effective debugging techniques; provide pointers and educational resources.

• Extensive experience in one of the following:
  Lightning framework or a modern web framework (i.e., Angular, Vue, Svelte, React, etc.).
• 5+ years of experience with JavaScript and Type Script.
• Significant experience building, testing, shipping, and maintaining consumer applications.
• Demonstrated success in working with a team to deliver high‑quality software in an iterative, predictable, and sustainable way.
• Excellent written and oral communication skills, and experience effectively communicating with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
• Demonstrated success evangelizing high‑quality software development practices—appropriate test coverage, automation, CI/CD, etc.
• Demonstrated success rapidly learning recent technologies, languages, or frameworks.

• Experience with React Native or WebGL.
• Experience developing an application in a resource‑constrained environment (e.g., limited GPU, CPU, memory).
