OVERVIEW OF THE COMPANY

Fox Corporation

Under the FOX banner, we produce and distribute content through some of the world’s leading and most valued brands, including: FOX News Media, FOX Sports, FOX Entertainment, FOX Television Stations and Tubi Media Group. We empower a diverse range of creators to imagine and develop culturally significant content, while building an organization that thrives on creative ideas, operational expertise and strategic thinking.

JOB DESCRIPTION

The Media Services team at Fox Corporation is seeking a Staff Developer to lead our front-end and UX engineering squads. You will architect and evolve the user interfaces and design systems that power critical internal applications—tools that manage millions of digital assets and editorial workflows across every FOX business unit. These systems use custom-build component libraries and are scalable, flexible, and config-driven to allow for rapid feature development, easy integrations with AI tooling, and positive developer experience.

This is a leadership position for a candidate who treats AI as a first-class engineering assistant. You will embed AI systems into our development lifecycle—from architectural exploration to testing and prototyping—and help establish a culture that encourages fast, intelligent iteration.

If you're passionate about leading design-forward, AI-accelerated development teams building scalable, cloud-native interfaces, we want to hear from you.

A SNAPSHOT OF YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Build and ship new internal applications and greenfield features that support media asset management and editorial publishing systems.

  • Design and maintain shared component libraries and SDKs used across internal product lines—spanning web, mobile, OTT, and partner feeds.

  • Lead modernization initiatives across our front-end stack, including framework upgrades, dependency refresh cycles, and integration evolution.

  • Use AI tools daily for:

    • Planning, prototyping, and scaffolding new initiatives

    • Architectural and code quality evaluations

    • Test creation and documentation

    • Rapid iteration and experimentation

  • Evaluate and integrate emerging AI tools into development workflows to accelerate productivity and innovation.

  • Guide and mentor internal and external engineering partners contributing to shared packages and internal open-source libraries.

  • Partner with product and design teams to shape cohesive UX across business units.

  • Establish and evangelize UX and accessibility best practices across the engineering organization.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

  • 5–10 years of front-end engineering experience with modern frameworks such as React (NextJS) or Vue (Nuxt).

  • Expertise in advanced TypeScript, with a strong focus on maintainability and scalability across component libraries, SDKs, and services.

  • Deep knowledge of:

    • Authentication, caching, and state management

    • Distributed architectures and API integrations

    • Modern CI/CD and DevOps tooling (e.g., GitHub Actions, AWS, containerization)

  • 5+ years in a technical leadership role, including experience mentoring engineers and leading cross-functional teams.

  • Experience managing and collaborating with distributed teams and external partners.

  • Daily comfort with AI tools for development, from code generation to architectural reasoning.

NICE TO HAVE, BUT NOT A DEALBREAKER

  • Background in media or content management systems.

  • Experience designing or managing internal SDKs and shared code packages.

  • Familiarity with component systems such as Material UI, or building your own.

  • Contributions to open-source or internal libraries that support large-scale front-end applications.
