If you are an experienced RIA developer with a passion for creating exceptional online experiences that push the boundaries of available technology then this is the opportunity for you.
We are Idevcor Media Inc., a fast growing and well funded software development startup focusing on online digital entertainment. We are headquartered in Kelowna, British Columbia, a four hour drive from Vancouver. Kelowna is the largest city in the southern interior of British Columbia. Its stunning lakeside setting and year-round recreational pursuits draw visitors from around the globe. It is also one of the fastest growing cities in North America and recently became home to a new campus for the University of British Columbia. The city was recently chosen by IBM as the location to build Canada’s largest green network data center and is the origin and center of such global new media enterprises as Disney’s Club Penguin. Kelowna is one of Canada’s emerging technology hubs and an ideal location for technical professionals who want more than a 9 to 5 job.
Idevcor has built a reputation as a premier provider of immersive online experiences through the delivery of live media and cutting-edge interactivity features. For example, our event-based delivery system supports features like simultaneous retrieval of multiple synchronized video streams, TiVo-like pause and rewind of live streams, slow motion playback, real-time video annotations and highlight clips, live chat, etc. We provide technology and services to such large scale content providers as DreamWorks and Turner Broadcasting which uses our technology to deliver live NASCAR races over the internet.
We are a small, focused team of committed professionals dedicated to providing superior technology to create compelling viewer experiences. Idevcor is currently looking for a senior Flash designer to develop new online interactive interfaces for live events. We offer competitive salaries, great benefits, free food, stock options and a fun, flexible work environment. Here are a few of the attributes we would value in a candidate:
