From Nexstar's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
FOX4 (WDAF-TV) is looking for a hands-on broadcast engineer to work alongside the Chief Engineer keeping our television plant on the air, and to help build what comes next.
This is a television engineering job first. Our SDI plant, control rooms, and live newscasts are the product, and they have to work every single day. At the same time, the station is expanding into connected TV and streaming delivery, and whoever takes this role will have a real hand in shaping that side of the operation as it grows.
We would rather hire someone who can trace a signal, read a rack, and stay steady during a live show, and then teach them the rest.
Please note: this is broadcast IT, not a help desk or enterprise system administration role. Corporate IT owns the enterprise side. What we need here is someone who understands how the network serves the plant.
Bring ideas about how the plant should evolve, not just keep the lights on No prior CTV or streaming experience is required. Curiosity and a willingness to learn matter more.
The Right Fit
This position is designed for a well-rounded engineer who thrives at the intersection of broadcast and IT. You will be empowered to maintain, improve, and innovate across all technical systems while providing vital support to a fast-paced, live news environment. The ideal candidate is a steady hand, a creative problem solver, and a trusted partner ready to help lead one of Kansas City’s most dynamic media operations.
