is looking for bright & well-rounded engineer to build and maintain
a world-class analytics product. With opportunities across the BI
stack, you will have the chance to apply your existing expertise and to
learn something new.
Netflix offers amazing co-workers, new technology, and a Freedom & Responsibility Culture that’s truly hard to find.
What will fill your days:
- You will creatively figure out how to use app/web data to continually add value to Netflix.
- You will be a bridge between app/web developers, statisticians,
data miners, product managers, and other Data Science & Engineering
teams.

- You will monitor, maintain, and improve data integration logic
running in the Amazon cloud processing many billions of rows of data.
The character & qualities that will help you succeed:
- You’re tenacious, persistent, & industrious; not just talented.
- Micromanagement makes your skin crawl. Given context, you’re capable of self-direction.
- You leave your desk & collaborate. (Not to be mistaken with
extroversion, but you realize the effectiveness of face-to-face contact
in communication.)
- You move seamlessly between code and analytical concepts.
- You’re an active listener who asks good questions and puts the company first.
- You appreciate beauty & simplicity.
- You’re known as a creative, innovative, & out-of-the-box thinker.
The technical experience that will help you succeed (not a rigid litmus test):
- mapReduce/HIVE/Pig experience (Bonus points if you’ve worked with Amazon’s EMR.)
- Big data & production support ETL experience.
- Strong SQL experience.
- Python/Perl/Java/C++ (Experience in one or more.)
- Quantitative: You’ve taken classes or read books that give you an appreciation for basic stats and/or machine learning.
- An appreciation for app development, web sites, and software development.
A few more things to know:
- Our culture is unique and we live by our values. It’s worth learning more: www.netflix.com/Jobs
- You will need to be comfortable working in the most agile of environments.
- Requirements will be vague. Iterations will be rapid. You will need to be nimble and take smart risks.
