Online video distributor Hulu announced today that it has hired Sony Network Entertainment International SVP Tian Lim as its new CTO.

While at Sony, Lim ran North American engineering and service operations, which was responsible for building and managing the PlayStation Store on the web, PS3 and PS4. Prior to that, he was on the Microsoft Xbox team for eight years, where he led development of the Xbox Live, Xbox 360 operating system and Kinect.

Lim replaces former CTO Richard Tom, who left Hulu along with former CEO Jason Kilar to start a new project together.
