About NESN

NESN is a regional sports network owned by Fenway Sports Group and Delaware North, delivering coverage of the Boston Red Sox and Bruins across the six-state New England region. The company also operates SportsNet Pittsburgh, a separate regional network serving the Pittsburgh Penguins and Pirates across Pennsylvania, West Virginia, eastern Ohio, and parts of New York and Maryland. Both networks distribute content through linear cable channels, branded streaming apps (NESN 360 and SNP 360), and web properties. The tech stack reflects broadcast production workflows — Adobe Creative Suite, Jira/Confluence for editorial coordination, and Zendesk/Freshdesk for fan support — alongside Microsoft Office and communication tools. Current projects span live game telecasts, seasonal content launches, partnership development, and customer support infrastructure.
