Disney Film Production Jobs (NOW HIRING)

At Disney, we’re storytellers. We make the impossible, possible. The Walt Disney Company (TWDC) is a world‑class entertainment and technological leader. Walt’s passion was to continuously envision new ways to move audiences around the world—a passion that remains our touchstone in an enterprise that stretches from theme parks, resorts and a cruise line to sports, news, movies and a variety of other businesses. Uniting each endeavor is a commitment to creating and delivering unforgettable experiences — and we’re constantly looking for new ways to enhance these exciting experiences.

The Enterprise Technology mission is to deliver technology solutions that align to business strategies while enabling enterprise efficiency and promoting cross‑company collaborative innovation. Our group drives competitive advantage by enhancing our consumer experiences, enabling business growth, and advancing operational excellence.

From movie concept to film production. Global premiere to direct‑to‑consumer mobile applications. You will innovate and deliver solutions that support a studio whose content is legendary and transcends generations.

We’re looking for passionate engineers who love learning new technologies at a rapid pace. You should be intimately familiar with large‑scale data center infrastructure as well as cloud environments, and as comfortable in the shell as you are in an IDE. Lean, agile, self‑sufficient teams is how we operate. We value a cloud‑first approach where we develop infrastructure‑as‑code. Automation should always do the work. You will be part of the team that provides cutting‑edge film‑making systems in the public cloud, focused on automation and infrastructure‑as‑code for all studios under the Disney umbrella.

Your passion for engineering systems is visible to your team, stakeholders and in everything you and your team deliver. You take engineering film production seriously, and that will help you make decisions that drive value every day.
