About arenaflex – Pioneering the Future of Entertainment

arenaflex is a world‑leading streaming and technology company that has reshaped how millions of people discover, watch, and enjoy movies, series, documentaries, and interactive experiences. With a library that spans petabytes of high‑quality content, arenaflex delivers seamless, personalized entertainment to viewers on any device, anywhere in the world. Our mission is to empower storytellers and delight audiences by providing the most reliable, innovative, and user‑centric streaming experience on the planet.

Why This Role Matters

At arenaflex, the magic of a great viewing experience starts long before a user presses “Play.” It begins with precise, rich, and searchable metadata that tells our recommendation engines, search tools, and accessibility features exactly what each piece of content is, who it’s for, and how it should be delivered. As a Remote Content Tagger & Data Entry Specialist, you will be the guardian of that metadata, ensuring every title, genre, language, subtitle, and technical attribute is accurately captured and maintained. Your work directly influences the quality of recommendations, discoverability, and overall satisfaction of our global audience.

Role Overview

This fully remote position is part of arenaflex’s arenaflex Connect infrastructure team—a cross‑functional, globally distributed group that builds and operates the backbone of our streaming platform. While the primary focus of the role is content tagging and data entry, you will collaborate closely with engineers, product managers, and quality assurance specialists who design the micro‑services, load‑balancing algorithms, and streaming pipelines that power every second of video playback.

Key Responsibilities

• Accurately tag and classify new and existing content across a wide range of categories, including genre, sub‑genre, language, region, age rating, and technical specifications.
• Enter and validate metadata in arenaflex’s proprietary content management system, ensuring consistency with established taxonomy and style guides.
• Perform regular audits of metadata to identify gaps, inconsistencies, or errors, and work with the data quality team to resolve them.
• Collaborate with engineering teams to understand how metadata feeds into recommendation algorithms, search indexing, and accessibility features such as subtitles and audio descriptions.
• Provide feedback on taxonomy enhancements, suggesting new tags or categories that improve content discoverability and user experience.
• Assist in the ingestion of large content batches, coordinating with acquisition and licensing teams to ensure timely and accurate data entry.
• Participate in continuous‑improvement initiatives, contributing ideas for automation, tooling, and workflow optimization.
• Maintain strict confidentiality and data security standards while handling proprietary content information.
• Support cross‑functional troubleshooting by providing detailed metadata insights when streaming or recommendation issues arise.

Essential Qualifications

• Minimum 3 years of professional experience in data entry, content tagging, metadata management, or a related field.
• Demonstrated ability to work with large datasets and maintain high levels of accuracy under tight deadlines.
• Strong written communication skills and a keen eye for detail; ability to follow style guides and taxonomy rules precisely.
• Familiarity with cloud‑based content management systems or digital asset management platforms.
• Basic understanding of streaming technology concepts (e.g., codecs, bitrate, resolution) is a plus.
• Proficiency in at least one modern programming or scripting language (e.g., Python, JavaScript) to assist with simple automation tasks.
• Experience working in a remote or distributed team environment, with reliable high‑speed internet connectivity.
• Comfort with ambiguity and the ability to adapt quickly to evolving processes and priorities.

Preferred Qualifications & Additional Skills

• Experience in a micro‑services architecture environment, especially within a media or entertainment context.
• Knowledge of metadata standards such as MPEG‑7, EBUCore, or ONIX.
• Exposure to data quality tools, validation scripts, or ETL pipelines.
• Background in linguistics, library science, or a related discipline that emphasizes classification and taxonomy.
• Passion for film, television, and emerging interactive media formats.
• Ability to work collaboratively across time zones, with flexible hours to support global content releases.

Core Competencies for Success

• Analytical Mindset: Ability to dissect complex content attributes and translate them into clear, actionable metadata.
• Quality‑First Attitude: Commitment to delivering error‑free data that powers critical business functions.
• Team Collaboration: Strong interpersonal skills to partner with engineers, product owners, and global operations teams.
