Staff Engineer - Software

DISH is a Fortune 250 company with more than $14 billion in annual revenue that continues to redefine the communications industry. Our legacy is innovation and a willingness to challenge the status quo, including reinventing ourselves. We disrupted the pay-TV industry in the mid-90s with the launch of the DISH satellite TV service, taking on some of the largest U.S. corporations in the process, and grew to be the fourth-largest pay-TV provider. We are doing it again with the first live, internet-delivered TV service - Sling TV - that bucks traditional pay-TV norms and gives consumers a truly new way to access and watch television. As a Senior engineer, you will play a central role in the analysis, design and development of Dish backend web services.The ideal candidate will have a passion for development and a strong background in building dynamic, high-volume APIs with Java/NodeJS using an Agile development methodology.
