    shomi is a brand new kind of subscription video streaming service. Curated by people who love popcorn and magic, shomi makes getting video entertainment nearly as enjoyable as watching it. Combining the passion and knowledge of our entertainment experts with the power of technology, shomi offers recommendations and Collections that help our members always find something good to watch.

    Made in Canada, shomi is a joint venture owned by Rogers Communications and Shaw Communications. Here at shomi, we do things in our own special way. We benefit from the support of our larger corporate parents (who we like to call mom and dad) yet we have our own unique culture where we work and play like a start-up. You could say we enjoy the best of both worlds.

    We believe in freedom, accountability and transparency in everything we do. At shomi we care about our customers, our product and our team and we push each other to excel in creating an awesome customer experience across an ever expanding list of popular devices [Web, iOS-Phone/Tablet, Android-Phone/Tablet, Xbox360, Chromecast, AppleTV, new AppleTV OS] with many more to come.

    If you are a passionate and seasoned engineer who can help us create the next great video streaming service, then we'd love to hear from you.

    Happy watching!
