The Role

At Netflix, we want to entertain the world and are constantly innovating on how entertainment is imagined, created, and delivered to a global audience. We currently stream content in more than 30 languages in 190 countries, topping over 278 million paid subscribers, and are expanding into new forms of entertainment such as gaming. Engineering teams within Netflix work hard every day to scale and innovate this content production and member experience in an ever-growing complex software landscape.

We are looking for distributed systems and software engineers to work on many of our core backend systems that directly impact our API platform, messaging, personalization, sign-up, partnership, payments, and billing systems.

As an engineer in this function, you will be applying your software development skills to solve complex problems with real world impact. You will be learning and contributing to scalable, highly-available, complex distributed systems powering the most sophisticated entertainment service in the world.

  • You are skilled in object-oriented programming and take pride in crafting efficient, maintainable and testable code. You have a solid foundation in computer science and software development concepts.

  • You are able to work independently and drive features or components throughout the development lifecycle - from identifying requirements to launching in production.

  • You are self-driven, prioritize effectively, and focus on impact.

  • You communicate clearly in written and verbal form.

Our compensation structure consists solely of an annual salary; we do not have bonuses. You choose each year how much of your compensation you want in salary versus stock options. To determine your personal top of market compensation, we rely on market indicators and consider your specific job family, background, skills, and experience to determine your compensation in the market range. The range for this role is $100,000 - $720,000.
