Pixar’s founders famously commented on the nature of animation, inspiration, and storytelling in a simple expression:

"Art challenges technology, but technology inspires the art."

If you are ready to help some of the world's most creative people translate that inspiration into the next big blockbuster, then it’s time to join GPL Technologies.

GPL Technologies is helping studios, VFX companies, post-production facilities, creators, artists and producers become more effective – faster, less expensive, more collaborative, with fewer headaches, and with more productivity anywhere in the world. Most of the “who's who” in media and entertainment (Netflix, Disney, Warner Bros. Discovery, Sony, and Amazon Studios to name a few) are already working with GPL Technologies to create content with record speed, quality and efficiency.

For time and cost sensitive projects (which is everything in media these days), the value proposition is unparalleled – delivering optimized IT solutions for content creators and media services providers. Seasoned executives at some of the leading companies including Pixomondo, Technicolor, Electronic Arts, Skydance, and Apple are leaping at the chance to join this new wave in "creative enablement" and the opportunity to shape a truly electric environment for serving customers.

We are looking for strong candidates who are self-driven, entrepreneurial, and willing to admit when their first idea won’t work – and then try a new one. No blind followers, we want thinkers who can solve problems creatively by cooperating with teammates and clients to create great outcomes. They understand that supporting clients is a challenging and rewarding experience.
