AWS Integrations
- You will be the primary engineer developing, operating, and troubleshooting two high-visibilitycontent sites built on a shared stack: Next.js/React delivered via Contentstack Launch withSSR and CDN caching/revalidation. Editorial changes publish into time-based cache windowsrather than instantly.
- Backend/platform scope spans: title/asset ingestion from OVC with assets from CVP/MPX into Content stack (in a separate AWS account) for UAA/UPAH, plus AWS serverless features and mParticle integration for Focus Features, with DataDog planned and Cloudflare being decommissioned.
Required years of experience
- 7+ years professional software engineering for large-scale web platforms.
- 3+ years building and operating Next.js/React applications with SSR and CDNcaching/revalidation.
- 2+ years hands-on with headless CMS and Contentstack Launch (content models, environments/builds, cache invalidation triggers).
- 2+ years operating AWS serverless workloads (e.g., Lambda, API Gateway) and production integrations (e.g., mParticle).
- 2+ years production monitoring/alerting and incident response (e.g., DataDog planned adoption).
- Experience with media title/asset ingestion flows (OVC, CVP/MPX CMS) and coordinating across accounts/environments.
Key responsibilities
- Frontend (Next.js/React + SSR)
- Own SSR routes/components, performance, accessibility/SEO; manage cache-controlheaders and confirm edge caching/revalidation behavior.
- CMS and Launch operations (Contentstack)
- Evolve content models; manage Launch environments/builds and automations that triggerpage-level cache invalidation after publish.
- Caching and freshness
- Tune time-based cache policies and revalidation for page types (e.g., titles, lists, search;typical windows around 5 minutes, configurable).
- Ingestion and data quality (UAA/UPAH)
- Maintain mappings/transforms from OVC/CVP/MPX into Contentstack; align data freshnesswith cache windows; coordinate with the separate AWS account.
- Serverless features and integrations (Focus Features)
- Operate and troubleshoot AWS serverless features (e.g., Insiders, Facebook Leadgen) andmaintain mParticle integration paths.
- Observability, reliability, and releases
- Implement/maintain monitoring and alerting (DataDog planned), create runbooks, leadincident response across frontend/Launch, ingestion, and serverless paths.
- Own CI/CD via Contentstack Launch; coordinate release timing with cache revalidation andingestion cycles; support system simplification (e.g., Cloudflare decommission).
Minimum qualifications
- Proficiency with Next.js/React SSR and CDN caching/revalidation at scale.
- Hands-on expertise with Contentstack Launch operations and page-level cache invalidation flows.
- Experience operating AWS serverless features and data integrations (including mParticle for membership features).
- Demonstrated ownership of ingestion pipelines for media metadata and assets into a CMS(OVC/CVP/MPX Contentstack).
- Solid monitoring/alerting, on-call participation, and incident response.
Preferred qualifications
- Introducing or maturing DataDog dashboards/APM/alerts; driving platform simplification (e.g.,retiring secondary CDN components like Cloudflare).
- Strong collaboration with editorial teams on caching expectations and publishing workflows; tuning TTLs and revalidation behavior.
Primary troubleshooting domains
- CDN cache headers/revalidation, stale content windows.
- Ingestion timing/field mapping issues across OVC/CVP/MPX into Contentstack.
- Serverless endpoints/integrations for Insiders/Leadgen and related data paths.
