Comcast Converged Products
Comcast is going to change the way America looks at television. Sound exciting? Then be a part of our next big thing. Our customers want access to entertainment from every source and we are going to bring it to them!
Whether it is their TV, PC, smartphone or the next cool device, we are building a next-generation platform that will serve them all and provide a seamless experience. It is the converged world we have all been waiting for. We are creating a start-up to make it happen.
Remember start-ups? Small teams, high performance, agility, creativity, ideal culture, bad desk chairs
That's us - except for the bad chairs - because we will have the security of Comcast behind us.
We are looking for people who put the know in innovation, and bring out the imagine in imagination. We are looking for leaders, not followers.
