About The Position

Behind the scenes, but ahead of the curve: help us develop the next-generation public broadcaster. Technology and Infrastructures (T&I) is the backbone and the future forward arm of CBC/Radio-Canada.

CBC/Radio-Canada has always been a highly-regarded pioneer of media technology. Not just in Canada, but around the world. Today, we’re transforming ourselves from conventional radio and television broadcaster into a modern digital media company. Technology is the driving force. T&I is the team making it happen.
