  • Plan and assist with software and system upgrades, technology migration, and facility improvements as needed.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) and prior management or supervisory experience.
  • 5+ years of broadcast, IT and / or production experience.
  • Ability to work varied hours as required to accommodate live news broadcasts, special events, remotes and rotating shifts to cover daily news shows.
  • Cisco CCNA, SBE and / or SMPTE certifications are a plus.
  • A solid grasp of networking concepts, including TCP / IP, UDP, Spanning Tree, and network performance optimization, is necessary.
  • Knowledge of cloud computing platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) and content delivery networks is increasingly important. Strong knowledge of both broadcast and IT systems, including IP video, video encoding / decoding, streaming protocols (HLS, DASH, RTMP), and related technologies.
  • Familiarity with automation systems and cloud-based playout systems.
  • Excellent leadership, communication, and project management skills.
  • Ability to remain calm under pressure and solve complex technical issues.

    • Work Environment

    This person oversees Engineering Operational and IT staff. Additionally, they interface with everyone from the occasional viewer, manufacturer and system integrator, Corporate IT, Master Control HUB, and Corporate Digital Team. They work with our Engineering Coordinator on crew schedules and provide support for remote productions like the Rose Parade, Red Carpet Shows, and Telethons.
