About the Role & Team
Do you remember seeing ads for Lilo and Stitch earlier this summer? What about Fantastic 4 or Ironheart on Disney+ in the past few weeks? If you did, it was likely because of the detailed planning and execution of The Walt Disney Studios Media and Marketing team…and if you didn’t – it’s probably because our targeting is that good.
We are looking for a Sr Software Engineer to join the Performance Marketing arm of this media team. We are an integrated, cross-functional team of marketers, software engineers, data scientists, and analysts who help the Media team execute highly data-driven marketing campaigns for theatrical, streaming, and brand campaigns.

You'll tackle the challenges of executing a precise paid media strategy, using the latest technologies and tools in the data/tech space. If you're excited about this, please get in touch – we'd love to hear from you!
