• Travel between studio lots and/or reassignment may be required.

• Other infrastructure and technology projects as assigned.

• Minimum of 4 years' experience in IT infrastructure support, network administration, or systems engineering in a mid‑to‑large corporate environment (studio or entertainment industry experience a strong plus).
