  • Develop and maintain integrations between third-party products and the Netflix data platform solutions.

  • Collaborate with other engineers, product managers, and technical program managers across teams to design and implement new features.

  • Solve real business needs at scale by applying your software engineering and analytical problem-solving skills.

  • Rapidly iterate with users to improve product experiences while establishing foundational capabilities.

Desired Background:

  • 4+ years of software engineering experience with a successful track record of delivering quality results

  • Strong interest and experience with the latest GenAI stack (LLMs, RAG, Agents/Tools) 

  • Strong experience building SDKs and APIs for internal or external products

  • Strong software design and development fundamentals, with experience in building and operating scalable, observable, fault-tolerant, distributed systems

  • Proficiency in Java, GRPC, Python, Python package management tooling, and GraphQL

  • Experience in large-scale build, release, continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD), and observability methods

  • Experience designing, building, and deploying ML applications
