Product Engineering

Los Gatos, CA

Netflix is the world’s leading Internet television network with more than 50 million members enjoying more than a billion hours of TV shows and movies per month around the world. The API is central to delivering the Netflix service, powering the user experience on over 1000 device types ranging from TVs and game consoles to tablets and smartphones. The API enables Netflix and its partners to rapidly iterate on new product features and is integral to Netflix’s long-term strategy.


The Culture
When you get up in the morning and think about your work for the day, are you excited? Can't wait to get started? Do you feel like the work you do makes a difference and moves the business in a meaningful way? Do you want to work with smart people who love solving challenging problems? This is the kind of environment that we value at Netflix. High performance is not only noticed but required.

The Opportunity
The API is the key integration point between Netflix devices and a services architecture that spans many AWS regions. We're looking for a senior engineer to help evolve our architecture while improving overall quality of service. Help us explore and develop solutions for improving scalability, resiliency, and performance in a cutting-edge, globally distributed cloud environment.  

Experience and Skills
- You have strong development experience, preferably with Java
- You have a track-record of successfully building and operating distributed web services
- You're able to keep calm during production issues and focus on problem resolution
- You're motivated by "the art of the possible" and are able to balance idealism and pragmatism with your solutions
- You know that building and running complex software systems requires a lot more than just typing code into an IDE
- You may have experience building applications using Amazon Web Services and EC2
