Senior Front-End Engineer - Experimentation Platform

Cloud and Platform Engineering

Los Gatos, CA

Netflix has a data-driven culture which is key to the success of the company. The experimentation platform is at the core of this culture, enabling innovation on thousands of Netflix ready devices. One facet of this platform is the rich toolset that is used to manage experiments, segmentation, analytics and insights based on digests of several petabytes of data.

We're looking for an experienced front-end engineer who can help us architect, build and scale the next generation of this toolset to support the company's fast growth. It's a great opportunity to work with top Experimentation and Data scientists, Algorithm, UI and application engineers across the company to creatively evolve the toolset to help inform decision making at Netflix. You'd be joining a tight, driven team whose work has a big impact on the business.

Here's what we're looking for:
- 5+ years of professional web development experience
- Expert-level knowledge of JavaScript: you understand prototypical inheritance, scope, and closures
- Proficiency in user experience technologies DHTML (JavaScript, Ajax, HTML5, CSS3)
- Experience working with systems written in Java or the like
- BS/MS in Computer Science (or equivalent)

Here's what would be nice to have:
- Some experience with scripting languages like python
- Comfortable working in Linux/Unix environment

You'd be a great fit if you:
- Raise the bar for your team technically, and are tenacious, curious and collaborative in all aspects of your work
- Are a quick learner and have excellent communication skills
- Enjoy working in an environment with lot of context and minimal guidance
