Roles in Media / Streaming / Entertainment
4 roles
Frontend Engineer
You build the face of the internet. If a user sees it or clicks it, you built it. You combine design sensibility with hard engineering to create performant, accessible, and beautiful web applications. It's the perfect blend of logic and creativity.
View Role
UX Designer
You are the champion of the user. You don't just make things look good; you make them work for humans. You research how people think, prototype solutions to their problems, and test designs until they are intuitive and delightful.
View Role
Data Analyst
You turn raw, messy data into clear insights. Companies are drowning in data but starving for wisdom—you bridge that gap. You'll use SQL to find the data, Python/R to analyze it, and Tableau/PowerBI to visualize it for stakeholders who need to know 'what do we do next?'
View Role
Backend Engineer
You build the invisible engines that power the world. You handle the logic, the database, the security, and the speed. While frontend is about what users see, backend is about making sure it actually works—reliably, securely, and fast.
