Venture Media is unique.  Think of it like a tech lab, building and evolving great tech ideas and projects with millions of eyeballs on our projects across mobile, social and the web.  The success of our mobile/web/social projects such as BlackFriday.com, our domain platform Mark.com, Mybible.com (and more) have allowed us the luxury of picking and choosing new or revamped ideas to either run with, or gather learning from to add to another project.

You are a software engineer with a passion for mobile, because you believe in a future where every individual carries a powerful and portable micro-computer.  You’ve written at least one native iOS apps and you can show us your plans on submitting to the app store.  You’re eager to work on the cutting edge of platforms and technologies and experiment with every new feature that comes out in mobile platform betas.  You are looking for an opportunity to create applications that are out of the ordinary, using best development practices.

Why work at Venture Media?

• If you value working on one of the top tech teams in Vancouver with people who like each other and have good hearts; who value trust, low politics, open-mindedness, flexibility, fun, not to mention a solid development practice we commit to that creates great tech - then you make like it here.  We don’t hire often, but when we do, we hire people who elevate the quality of life and product we are fortunate to have and build here.

• We have partnerships with the largest retailers in the world who rely on our mobile and web traffic to boost sales.  We have some of the highest ranking Facebook pages with millions of likes and millions of people visiting our other projects and domains.  Our mobile apps have topped the Apple charts.  We have many happy users and our projects really are, real-time tested with many, many people.

• Our hours are flexible, our vacations generous, if you want to take a sabbatical, we do that sort of thing.

• We are privately funded and we don’t answer to clients.  This is rare in business and it is fun as it allows us to explore and develop what tech we want to develop.  Ideas come both from our CEO and our staff via hackathons, competitions and more.
