Senior Data Visualization Engineer - Content

Data Science and Engineering

Beverly Hills, CA

Who are we?
Netflix is well beyond pushing the boundaries of traditional data warehousing; our data volumes have necessitated home-grown expertise in cloud storage and computing. In order to provide a responsive and reliable experience for our customers, we've scaled out massively around the world, constantly challenging the limits of nascent cloud technology, and maturing it and the tools surrounding it.

The Content team in the Data Science and Engineering group has some truly fascinating analytical questions to explore. How do we effectively program for our subscribers? How do we measure and attribute value to movies/TV shows as it relates to customer acquisition, retention and engagement? How can we get better at decision-making for licensing content prior to having it on our service, or prior to creating it (i.e. - Netflix original series)?

Netflix offers amazing co-workers, new technology, fascinating analytical and technical challenges, and a Freedom & Responsibility Culture that's hard to find. 

Who are you?
- You are tenacious, persistent, curious, and industrious, and not just talented.
- When asked to deliver a report or build a dashboard, you ask why.
- You have vision, and consider progress exciting.
- You build what users want before they knew they wanted it.
- You thrive in a fast-paced environment, and given context, you're capable of self-direction.
- You are motivated by solving difficult problems and making a real impact to the business
- When clients receive your work product, they know they need you on the next project.

What will you do?
- Partner with the Content team to understand their goals, how they think about their area of the business, and how we can support them through analytics.
- Architect and engineer tools, visualizations and dashboards for Content to have everything they need at their fingertips to answer their difficult questions.
- Produce dashboards / visualizations for Content to explore

What do you know?
- SQL. Teradata or other parallel database experience a plus.
- Data Modeling.
- Big Data. Hadoop/Hive experience a plus.
- Data Visualization. Microstrategy/Tableau experience a plus.
- Analytics. Statistics background a plus.
- Education: Surprise us.
