About the Role
Design and deliver scalable services for Paramount Streaming's content management platform, becoming an expert in core components, leading projects, and mentoring engineers. Ship high-quality code across a polyglot stack powering Paramount+, Pluto TV, and CBS.com.
Responsibilities
- Design and implement features, APIs, and services across our stack: Java/Spring Boot, Next.js/React, Python, Kafka/PubSub, and Solr search pipelines.
- Become an expert in one or more CMS platform components or systems — and codify that expertise so AI agents can ramp on it (clear conventions, agent-readable docs).
- Lead small-to-medium projects from inception to delivery, including scoping and coordination.
- Identify and address complex technical issues — debugging, performance tuning, root-cause analysis.
- Proactively improve development tooling, system efficiency, and reduce technical debt.
- Mentor less senior engineers through code reviews, pairing, and knowledge sharing — including effective AI-augmented workflows.
- Collaborate with partner teams to ensure seamless integrations and cohesive experiences.
- Participate in on-call rotation, incident resolution, and RCAs.
- Help grow the team through interviewing and onboarding new members.
Requirements
- BS in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent applicable experience.
- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience.
- Strong experience with Java (17+) / Spring Boot and TypeScript / React / Next.js.
