Cloud and Platform EngineeringLos Gatos, CA
Netflix is the leading provider of streaming video, reaching 40
million subscribers in more than 40 countries and territories around the
world. Our subscribers consume over five billion hours of video a
quarter and account for about 33% of the downstream Internet traffic in
North America. Subscribers enjoy Netflix on more than 1,000 different
device types. Supporting this global brand presents significant
engineering challenges.
We are a data-driven company, handling hundreds of billions of
events per day to answer many application and business related
questions. At the center of providing scalable platform solutions to
these challenges is the Netflix Event and Data Pipelines team,
responsible for building common infrastructure to collect, transport,
aggregate, process and visualize various events. The events include
logging messages, user activity records, system operational data, or any
arbitrary data that our systems need to collect for business, product,
and operational analysis. All engineering teams at Netflix use these
core libraries and services.
We are looking for an experienced, talented and motivated
engineering leader to engage with other teams and drive the integration
and evolution of shared libraries and infrastructure components. This is
a hands-on leadership position to manage a team that is key to the
Netflix service. You will set strategic direction, working with our
engineering and business partners. You will anticipate needs, foster
nimbleness and build a world-class team.
To be successful in this role, you must be a quick learner, have
stellar software development and communication abilities, and work well
in large cross-functional teams. This is a great opportunity to enhance
your cloud computing skills, and simultaneously gain intimate knowledge
of Netflix products and services.
Your team will be an integral component of our product and
infrastructure development teams, creating the best TV and movie
experiences in the world, enabling millions of Netflix subscribers to
easily find great movies and TV shows to watch instantly. Our product
teams test new features at blistering pace - think weeks vs. months or
years. Your team will have to work both hard and smart to keep up.

- You have a demonstrated ability to establish a vision and to execute on it
- You have exceptional experience in leading engineering teams
- You have a keen eye for strong engineering talent and building teams
- You are comfortable leading initiatives and presenting to large groups
- You internalize what it means to own products, projects and applications
