Thank you! It was indeed an incomplete copy/paste from my last "Who's Hiring?" post. I edited the original comment to fix it.

Nice.

I happen to have just finished reading “Stranger in a Strange Land” for the first time a few weeks ago. In addition to having a super thought provoking premise, it coined the term “grok” which is so prevalent in tech circles. I never really questioned its origin, and I guess I assumed it was a borrowed word from Yiddish or something.

Disney Streaming Services | Software Engineer | NYC | Onsite, Full-time

The Content Engineering team at Disney Streaming is looking for Software Engineers to help build the metadata and artwork platform for Disney+, ESPN+, and other streaming services. Our systems are collectively responsible for integrating with the studios to bring all the metadata and artwork for Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, Nat Geo, and Fox content onto the Disney Streaming platform for inclusion in the Disney+ launch at the end of the year. This includes distributed systems that handle metadata and artwork ingest, management, discovery, curation, personalization, and syndication.

We have an engineer-driven culture where teams are able to make their own technology choices based on the task at hand, and team members are encouraged to spend some time on professional development taking online courses, learning new technologies, working on open source or side projects, or writing blog posts. Some of the technologies currently used within Content Engineering include Java, Scala, Kotlin, Node.js, Python, PostgreSQL, ElasticSearch, Docker, and a wide array of AWS services (Lambda, ECS, S3, SQS, Kinesis, DynamoDB, etc.).

If you're interested in being involved in the most highly-anticipated direct-to-consumer streaming service launch ever, contact me directly at: jared.wolinsky at disneystreaming dot com.

We found our sweet spot in terms of enabling the flexibility of front-end devs experimenting and defining their own queries while maintaining cacheability. During development, front-end devs use the Graphiql endpoint to play around with the data and figure out exactly what they want. Once that's settled, we turn it into a persisted query that is stored on the server and keyed by a unique ID that the client apps use in production instead of the raw GraphQL payload. You add a small amount of overhead for the coordination to create the persisted queries, but we're considering even building a self service process in the future.
