About The Team

Data Experience is a tightly-knit team working within the Disney Entertainment & ESPN Technology’s (DE&E Tech) Data department. We focus on building cutting-edge applications, reducing redundancy, and providing end-to-end solutions that optimize our business processes. While focused on full-stack application development, we often foray into platform connectivity, BI tools, and big-data visualizations.

As the business place moves toward more data-driven decision making, the ability to access data easily becomes very important. In turn, we work closely with Data Science, Marketing, and Personalization teams to create one-of-a-kind applications that enable the Disney Company to reach new heights of customer outreach and conversion. While we use known technologies to speed our development process, we also contribute to and push enterprise design and productivity through our innovative partnerships.

Using your skills and experience in full-stack development, you will join a fun team of technically capable individuals that pride themselves on delivering the highest quality product.  Most of our applications are written in a NodeJS/Typescript/React stack, but we can cover many languages and frameworks with our breadth of experience.  In this role, you will focus on our overall platform with a focus on the pieces that are Hulu-supporting: Near Real Time visualization system, event glossary and mechanisms, and reporting metadata repository/front-end. The work is fun and challenging, and we are often asked to break new ground in terms of user experience and application functionality.

Join our small-but-mighty team in DE&E Tech and be a part of the magic!
