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.

| ROLE

Netflix is reinventing how the world is entertained. Over 260+ million members around the globe enjoy our award-winning movies and TV shows, but most of our growth still lies ahead. The N-Tech Engineering & Reliability organization plays a vital role in developing internal solutions to streamline employee productivity. Our goal is to make employees' daily activities frictionless and nurture their overall experience, subsequently saving Netflix time and money. As a Software Engineer L5 on the N-Tech Software Engineering team, you will design and build internal products and integrations that improve how employees work every day. You will partner closely with other engineers, product managers, designers, and stakeholders to deliver high-quality, end-to-end solutions that are reliable, scalable, and easy to operate. You will contribute to the technical direction within your team or product area, especially around how we apply AI, GenAI, and LLMs to solve concrete enterprise problems. You will own significant projects from design through production, and help improve the quality, efficiency, and maintainability of our systems over time.

| ABOUT YOU

You are a strong, independent engineer who enjoys building high-quality products and solving real business problems. You are comfortable working through ambiguous requirements and turning them into clear, pragmatic solutions. You collaborate effectively with cross-functional partners and are able to explain technical tradeoffs in a way that resonates with both technical and non-technical audiences. You have a solid track record of building and operating production systems, and you care deeply about code quality, reliability, and long-term maintainability. You have meaningful experience with AI/GenAI/LLMs and know how to apply these tools thoughtfully to improve workflows and productivity, even if you are not the primary strategic owner of AI across the organization. You are growing your influence: you lead projects within your scope, mentor others on your team, and help shape patterns and best practices, while still being very hands-on with design and implementation.

| RESPONSIBILITIES

• Design, develop, test, deploy, and operate end-to-end solutions that provide seamless product experiences for employees and internal stakeholders.
• Own significant projects within your team or product area, from problem definition through implementation and rollout, including integration with third-party and internal services.
• Contribute to the design and implementation of GenAI/LLM-powered features in our employee-facing applications, including evaluating approaches, prototyping, and productionizing solutions.
• Make key technical decisions within your scope on architecture, reliability, performance, and maintainability, while aligning with broader N-Tech patterns and paved paths.
• Improve and simplify existing systems by reducing complexity, deprecating or decommissioning low-value solutions, and driving migrations or refactors that meaningfully improve quality and efficiency.
• Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, other engineers, stakeholders, and vendors to clarify requirements, shape solutions, and deliver value iteratively.
• Communicate technical issues, tradeoffs, and business impact clearly to your team and stakeholders, tailoring the level of detail to the audience.
• Mentor and support other engineers on your team, sharing context, reviewing designs and code, and helping them grow their impact.
• Contribute to team-level technical direction and roadmaps, especially in your areas of expertise (e.g., backend, integrations, AI/GenAI), and help drive alignment on priorities and execution.

| WE VALUE

• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to make pragmatic, data-informed decisions.
• Passion for engineering excellence and building tools and applications that have clear, measurable impact on how employees work.
• Ability to thrive in a dynamic environment, where priorities can shift, and to maintain clarity on what matters most for your projects and stakeholders.
• Sound judgment in balancing short-term delivery with long-term maintainability, reliability, and business impact.
• Inclusive collaboration, ensuring all voices are heard and creating space for others to contribute ideas and feedback.
• Commitment to Netflix values, including candid communication, context over control, and acting in the best interest of the company.

| SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

• 7+ years of experience as a software engineer (or equivalent), with a track record of delivering production systems with quality and reliability.
• Hands-on experience with AI, GenAI, LLMs, or ML-powered features in real products; comfortable applying existing models and tools to solve business problems.
• Strong knowledge of data structures, algorithms, and modern software design patterns.
• Proficiency in Python and Java, and comfort working across multiple languages and frameworks as needed.
• Experience owning and delivering projects end-to-end: requirements clarification, design, implementation, testing, deployment, and ongoing operation.
• Experience building and maintaining APIs and integrations between internal systems and third-party services.
• Familiarity with cloud platforms such as AWS and modern application architectures (e.g., microservices, event-driven systems).
• Experience with some of: Node, JavaScript/TypeScript, React, Spring Boot, NoSQL datastores, GraphQL, or similar technologies used to build modern web applications.
• Demonstrated ability to mentor peers, give and receive constructive feedback, and help raise the bar for code quality and system design within your team.
• Ability to break down large, ambiguous problems into smaller, incremental steps, and to balance tactical execution with longer-term improvements.
