Job Posting Title:
Sr Production EngineerReq ID:
10100386Job Description:
This role is considered Hybrid, which means the employee will work onsite in our San Francisco office and occasionally from home.
Lucasfilm is looking for a seasoned full-stack Python developer to join a motivated and flexible production software team. The developers in Lucasfilm Information Systems (IS) build workflow-driven applications that allow our users to efficiently create movies, TV shows, magazines, books, and games. We're hiring humble experts to join a team of well-rounded developers that thrive in an informal environment, one in which managers are there to support the process and fill in the gaps, so that developers are free to do their jobs.
We support a broad range of users–from non-technical cast and crew, who just need tools to securely access scripts or other reference; to full-time digital asset managers, whose whole workday is spent performing complex administrative tasks in these same systems; to industry-leading artists and production staff, who need our tools to blend seamlessly into their specialized workflows.
We’re currently onboarding new users into our digital asset management platform, and rewriting core production tracking and workflow tools for one of Lucasfilm’s creative divisions. You’d be supporting growth in our user base by supporting new use cases in these tools, and helping leverage new technologies to support their continued improvement.
What We’re Looking For
5+ years of professional software development experience:
Strong Python skillset, with demonstrated contributions to significant Python applications
Experience with Python web and API frameworks
Single page web app experience with modern JavaScript frameworks
Excellent interpersonal, communication, and client-facing skills
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, other technical degree, or equivalent
Nice to Have
Expertise in core technologies used by our team, including Vue, Flask, SQLAlchemy, Postgres, Redis, Solr, Celery, Aspera, Lambda, and Docker
Familiarity supporting film/tv/print media/game production processes and culture
Experience with Digital Asset Management and Production Workflow tools
Experience with media: transcode, colorspace management, playback optimization
Security orientation, and experience working with and protecting sensitive data
Experience with async Python
About the IS team
Our Lucasfilm Information Systems team values pride and earnestness, idealism and pragmatism, and focusing on the customer as much as the code. We have a "no arrogance" policy and want to hire awesome people to work in a great department. We value Scout Rule coding ("leave the code cleaner than you found it") and finding the right tool for the right job. We're at a company that has used Python for 25 years, so balancing legacy systems and future needs is a daily battle, but that is the nature of software—reading code is as important as writing it. We are continuously refining our processes, and encourage our developers to explore tools, techniques, and other sorts of meta-development to make themselves more productive.
You'll be part of a group that gets along well, whether it's tackling a technical issue, attending a company screening, or joining a zoom hangout on a Friday afternoon. The team is primarily ‘hybrid,’ based out of beautiful offices in Burbank and San Francisco, with a combination of in-person and remote work. This role is considered Hybrid, which means the employee will work onsite in our San Francisco office and occasionally from home.
We exist to support fast moving production companies, and you will work with the knowledge that whatever you write will immediately make the job easier for someone down the hall, at Skywalker Ranch, or at one of our studios or location shoots around the world.
The hiring range for this position in San Francisco, CA is $149,000.00 to $199,800.00 per year. The base pay actually offered will take into account internal equity and also may vary depending on the candidate’s geographic region, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience among other factors. A bonus and/or long-term incentive units may be provided as part of the compensation package, in addition to the full range of medical, financial, and/or other benefits, dependent on the level and position offered.Job Posting Segment:

Frequently Asked Questions
- We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
- Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
- The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
- Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
- We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
- We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
- From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
- We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
- If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
- EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
