The team

The Security Engineering organization ensures that Netflix can pragmatically address top security risks while maintaining business agility, velocity, and scale.

AIS is looking to add an experienced Security Engineer to collaborate closely with our platform teams to enhance Netflix security against ever-changing business needs. In this role, you will work across different teams and with a variety of stakeholders, including security engineers, software engineers, and product managers. Leveraging your engineering skills and security knowledge, you will play a key role in how our systems are built and how we manage risk. This role needs someone who is proactive and adaptable, who can work well with people from different areas of expertise, and who can help foster a strong and inclusive security team.

• Experience in securing platforms and services in mixed-deployment environments (self-hosted, cloud-hosted, SaaS).

• Experience in securing cloud platforms, securing networks and infrastructure, and designing cloud agnostic security solutions.

• Familiarity with container and orchestration security, and authentication/authorization.
