About us

Who are we?

At ITV, we’re passionate about the same things you are: typed functional programming in Scala using the Typelevel stack.

We have a continuous development mindset, always looking to grow the capabilities of our engineering teams, giving them the autonomy and power to steer the technical direction and operate a build it, run it style of working practice. We contribute to the wider Engineering community as part of our day-to-day work via conferences and open source contributions and we have fun on the way to meeting our strategic goals.

We're early adopters who prefer to move fast, experiment and break things. Our teams are supportive, collaborative and open-minded; and always on the lookout for new and better ways of doing things. Across the business, ITV has placed technology at the heart of its ambitious new strategy, adapting to changing consumer behaviour around how they'd like their content delivered. 

Once upon a time, we scheduled our lives around our favourite show, now the shows work around us and we at ITV are consistently looking for ways to help shape that. Technology increasingly drives everything we do, we have teams in On Demand, Content Technology, Core Ad Tech and Behavioural Data that consistently strive to use modern engineering methods and tech to deliver best-in-class service to our consumers.

Media and Entertainment is a forever advancing and fast-paced industry, consumer behaviours are changing all the time and we are looking for talented engineers to help us scale and innovate whilst maintaining the high quality of products and services we create.

ITV On Demand is home to the platform that powers the ITV Hub and BritBox UK. 

Last year the Hub served over 1.8 billion videos to over 30 million users across 29 platforms including Amazon Fire, Xbox, Android and iOS devices to name but a few. We’re constantly expanding with year-on-year video delivery increasing by 23%. BritBox is ITV’s joint venture with the BBC and other content partners, that aims to deliver a best-in-class subscription video service for great British content - all powered by technology battle-tested on the Hub.
