• Create on-screen graphics for our live broadcasts with our proprietary web software
• Develop adapters to integrate with various in-venue scoring systems to pull in real-time statistics and game data for use in our broadcasts, metadata, push notifications, etc.
• Help architect and develop APIs. This position must deeply understand the best practices of REST, while not insisting on being religious about it.

REQUIREMENTS:

• Have proficiency in HTML, CSS, and a modern JavaScript framework that promotes reusable component-based architecture.
• Strong experience with Angular (ideally v10+) or (alternately) React or Vue.
• Experience using CSS preprocessors like LESS and SASS.
