Our solutions need to support a number of teams within Netflix who use a wide variety of technologies and processes. And they need to work reliably, at scale, in the cloud.

A key factor in determining the success of our platform is our ability to meet and exceed the requirements of our partner teams. As such, this role requires close collaboration with Engineers on those teams, from understanding their use cases and developing functionality to address their challenges to identifying best practices and evangelizing them.

If you have strong software engineering skills, distributed systems experience and thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment, we want to hear from you!

Experience

5+ years in software development with full-stack experience. Java, Groovy/Scala/Clojure style scripting languages

Proficiency in a Javascript framework like Angular, Ember etc. would be a big plus

Strong understanding of OOP/OOD principles

Proven experience developing software used by a large user base

Familiarity with Functional Programming

Good understanding of what it takes to develop and operate a large-scale distributed service in production

Excellent communication, presentation and leadership skills. You will be required to present material in front of large audiences, both internal and external.
