Business Context: (Completed prior to posting open position for use with recruiting)

Key Challenges/ Major Business Issues As a global media company, Discovery engineers are called upon to evaluate and provide recommendations on the use of potentially bleeding-edge technologies. Candidate should be adept at fast-paced critical thinking and be able to see through to a solution when exposed to technologies he/she may not have direct experience with or training for.

(b) Risks and Opportunities Risks: Ability to manage and implement new systems that can be effectively supported by a relatively small operations staff. Focus should be on automated and repeatable procedures and systems. This of course must be done sometimes with very little advance notice due to the nimble nature of our business users who will be very demanding and not accept long timelines to implementation.

Opportunities: As an engineering team we are currently developing designs with a view of providing more agile solutions to keep pace with Discovery's continued growth. This includes the active development of automated, repeatable and ultimately auditable server configurations
