Are you excited by the way web services are changing the way people experience entertainment, music and games? Have you lead the design of a web service for a mobile phone, embedded device or social network – from planning and implementation, to deployment, maintenance and scaling? Would you like to apply your passion for creating scalable web services on Xbox LIVE to deliver the next generation of online entertainment to an audience of millions?
If so, the Xbox Live team is looking for you. We are the product development studio in London that brought Sky and Canal+ to Xbox LIVE. With those partnerships, we have brought both on demand and live video to Xbox LIVE, including innovative ways to experience football with interactive stats and the ability to chat with your friends in a 3D stadium environment using your Xbox Avatar. Our team is focused on creating compelling products for the local vibrancy of European markets… and we're just getting started. Over the coming years, this team will take entertainment to a new level with innovative new ways to experience your favourite activities with your friends, and take the Xbox LIVE service to new heights and new audiences.
Our team is small and agile, with the goal of building cutting edge experiences that are tightly integrated with the Xbox 360 and Xbox Live. As the foundational member of our services team, you will write the book on web services development for our studio – establish our tools and technology, work with ops and test teams to create our development and deployment processes, and work with external partners to evaluate designs and integrate systems.
You will contribute to overall product vision and scope, hire contractors and full time developers as required by the business, set resource requirements and schedules for your team's feature areas, and run and evolve our services on an ongoing basis. You will have the opportunity to work at a rapid pace, shipping major new functionality. Your work will not only impact millions of Xbox LIVE users throughout Europe, but you will develop a deep understanding of the core components of the Xbox 360 Console and Xbox Live Service platforms.
