Job Description Working at CBC: At the CBC, we all have a story to tell. What’s yours? If you share our passion for storytelling, Canada and having a positive impact on your community, CBC’s Digital Strategy and Product team is where you want to be!

CBC serves one of the country’s largest digital audiences and one of the few that is built and owned in Canada, by Canadians. Our product suite includes cbc.ca, CBC News app, CBC Gem and CBC Listen. Our product vision is to make it effortless for all people and communities in Canada to tell and discover the stories that connect us. Whether delivering the latest breaking news, international hit series, deep dives into local issues, award-winning podcasts, or nation-building events like the Olympics, our products ensure that these stories reach Canadians on their phones, TVs, desktops or smart speakers whenever they need or want us.

You have the opportunity to play a part in informing, enlightening and entertaining Canadians through innovative storytelling formats and content discovery. We are an empowered, outcome-driven, innovative hub for CBC, critical to the future growth of Canada’s public media company and the wider content ecosystem. We believe that we are most impactful when our teams reflect the breadth of experience of the audiences we serve and we are committed to an inclusive and equitable workplace. When you join our mission, you are contributing to the growth of the CBC, and the future of our country.

Why is this role important? We are looking for a senior manager of Enterprise Architecture, audience-facing products. This role will lead the architectural practice and align technology solutions with digital product strategies and overall business goals. Audience-facing products encompass more than frontend technologies and involve helping product teams discover content and stay engaged with our digital products. You’ll work closely with product leaders, engineering managers and technical leaders to drive innovation.

Your mission: guide and inspire teams to implement smart, scalable, and future-ready solutions—anchored in strong architectural principles and best practices.

If you're passionate about building what's next and thrive at the intersection of strategy, technology, and collaboration, we want to hear from you!
