Behind the scenes, but ahead of the curve: help us develop the next-generation public broadcaster.
Created to align, lighten and modernize infrastructure, T&I is the backbone and the future-forward arm of CBC/Radio-Canada. We are the people that make stuff work. We make connections; between media content, systems, people and places. We are the space in between.
A place with purpose . CBC/Radio-Canada has always been a highly-regarded pioneer of media technology. Not just in Canada, but around the world.
