At Netflix, our mission is to entertain the world. Together, we are writing the next episode - pushing the boundaries of storytelling, global fandom and making the unimaginable a reality. We are a dream team obsessed with the uncomfortable excitement of discovering what happens when you merge creativity, intuition and cutting-edge technology. Come be a part of what’s next.
The Data Platform teams at Netflix enable us to leverage data to bring joy to our members in many different ways. We provide centralized data platforms and tools for various business functions at Netflix, so they can utilize our data to make critical data-driven decisions. We do all the heavy lifting to make it easy for our business partners to work with data efficiently, securely, and responsibly. We aspire to lead the industry standard in building a world-class data infrastructure, as Netflix leads the way to be the most popular and pervasive destination for global internet entertainment.
We are looking for distributed systems engineers to help evolve and innovate our infrastructure. We are committed to building a diverse and inclusive team that will bring new perspectives as we solve the next set of challenges. In addition, we are open to remote candidates. We value what you can do from anywhere in the U.S.
Spotlight on Data Platform Teams:
Online Data Stores
- Caching
The Online Data Stores organization offers managed, highly-scalable data storage solutions to meet Netflix’s operational requirements across all business lines (e.g. streaming, ads, gaming, and live events). These data storage services are grouped into the following domains:
- No-SQL Key/Value
- Search
- Relational
- Caching
- Composite (eg. graph, tree, time series, counter)
- Common Infrastructure
Our focus is on developing and maintaining highly performant, reliable, and cost-efficient data storage solutions at Netflix’s extreme scale. These data stores are built from a combination of world-class in-house solutions that are open-sourced and used by top technology firms, as well as state-of-the-art data solutions from public cloud offerings. Additionally, we enhance developer productivity by providing opinionated and intuitive, secure abstraction layers on top of the base storage systems.
The Online Data Stores team is a customer-obsessed infrastructure team that strives to accelerate the growth and diversification of Netflix’s business verticals through world-class data storage technologies. Our team also seeks to impact the greater technology landscape by engaging with open source communities, actively contributing to, and responsibly stewarding the development and use of open source software.
Caching Team
The Netflix Online Data Stores Caching Team provides extremely low-latency yet high-throughput in-memory and distributed data storage solutions across the company. Our services power mission-critical Tier-0 Netflix services such as the streaming Catalog and Content Delivery Network (CDN) metadata. We are looking for passionate and innovative software engineers to join our team to build novel caching architectures that push the limits of performance, cost efficiency, utility, and usability.
Data Security & Infrastructure
The Data Security and Infrastructure (DSI) team acts as a platform for our own data platforms, providing foundational infrastructure and tooling that empower Netflix to innovate rapidly in delivering cutting-edge data and analytics systems. Instead of building custom scaffolding for every new system, we focus on creating scalable, high-leverage infrastructure tailored to the demands of running data systems at Netflix's scale.
Our work spans infrastructure, security, deployment systems, and more, ensuring the reliability, security, and performance of our platform. A unique aspect of our team is our diverse tech stack, with many of our tools and systems developed in Go, Python and Java. If you thrive on solving complex problems, enjoy working with multiple programming languages, and want to make an impact at scale, this team could be a perfect fit for you!
