    Whether that's evolving our streaming and digital products in new and immersive ways, powering worldwide advertising and distribution to enhance flexibility and efficiency, or delivering Disney's unmatched entertainment and sports content, every day is a moment to make a difference to partners and to hundreds of millions of people around the world.

    A few reasons why we think you'd love working here:

    These identity services are responsible for over 300 million guest and fan accounts, and billions of transactions per year.

    These challenges are regularly given on tight timelines, and we are looking for experienced engineering team members able to make the right decisions and drive them to execution.

    This position will serve as a primary contributor on the team as the team navigates the changing technology landscape.

    Responsibilities:
    Collaborate with peers and business partners to design and implement product features in a high-scale distributed architecture

    Demonstrated ability to work with minimal supervision leading small projects and initiatives as part of a cross-functional team
    Professional experience with relation and non-relational database platforms
    Knowledge of common performance troubleshooting techniques using observability tools

    Preferred Qualifications:
    Experience with container technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes
    Experience with serverless and event-driven architecture using tools such as AWS lambda, Apache Kafka, AWS Kinesis, and AWS SQS
