Meet Our Team:  

The Content Systems Engineering team builds the applications and services that power Warner Bros Discovery’s content supply chain.  Our applications cover the entire breadth of the media supply chain, from idea to distribution.  We have a robust global community of thousands of internal Warner Bros Discovery users who rely on our apps every day to get television produced, on the air, and onto Discovery+.

We’re looking for a developer who can be an integral part of our new development team in Warner Bros Discovery’s Bangalore office.  We need a full stack developer who’s comfortable building, implementing, and consuming RESTful APIs for enterprise solutions. Our current service tier is a blend of Java and Node.js services. We’re transitioning our older, monolithic Dojo-based SPA to a micro-front-end featuring reusable components and loosely-coupled micro-apps. As a full-stack developer you’d be working alongside our current development team that features other full-stack developers along with some specialists dedicated to either front-end or back-end layers. No need to be an expert in everything, but we need you to be comfortable in your skills in each layer to contribute to it.

• Describe and defend your design and code decisions to other engineers, embrace constructive feedback, and adapt your approach to align with team and company standards and objectives.
• Offer enhancements to best practices, document, design, and architecture improvements, and as feedback through code reviews to other engineers without continuous prompting or recurring encouragement. Other engineers appreciate your feedback.
• Troubleshoot a production issue by reviewing source code, logs, operational metrics, stack trace etc. to pinpoint a specific problem and then resolve it.

Qualification:

• 3-5 years of experience as a software developer - Fullstack
• Experience with event driven architecture or asynchronous messaging services
