About IS
 

Our Lucasfilm Information Systems team values pride and earnestness, idealism and pragmatism, and focusing on the customer as much as the code. We have a "no arrogance" policy and want to hire awesome people to work in a great department. We love source control, testing and Linux. We value Scout Rule coding ("leave the code cleaner than you found it") and finding the right tool for the right job. We're at a company that has used Python for nearly 25 years, and balancing legacy systems and future needs is a daily battle, but that is the nature of software—reading code is as important as writing it.

You'll be part of a group that enjoys working together - whether it's tackling issues for our clients, debating the latest technical trends, or sharing favorite recipes, music and DIY projects . We exist to support our customers, and you will work with the knowledge that whatever you write will immediately make the job easier for someone at ILM, at Skywalker Ranch, or at one of our studios or location shoots around the world.
