Job Description

At Netflix, you will enable studio teams to explore creative development with emerging technologies and develop workflows for high-quality content. Your role involves creating foundational systems that make Computer Graphics technologies accessible and collaborating with application developers to empower creators.

Requirements

  • Creativity, you face every problem in its unique context rather than trying to make a familiar solution work because it’s comfortable
  • Forward-Thinking, you stay up to date with the latest developments and quickly understand emerging workflows to deliver scalable and extendable solutions
  • Versatility, you’re a software engineer who enjoys working with new technologies
  • Curiosity, you’re a technical pioneer who is self-motivated to seek out new knowledge and capabilities
  • Flexibility, when you identify a gap to be filled, you step up to meet the need
  • Problem-Solving, you proactively identify issues and own their resolution
  • Passion, you care deeply about content creation and storytelling
  • Strong Values, you have the desire to live the Netflix culture and champion the culture of our team

Responsibilities

  • Architect systems to define and store shareable environments for remote and cloud-based creative workflows
  • Encapsulate and deliver emerging creative workflows to artists in a comfortable interface that abstracts away technical complexity
  • Build backend services leveraging Java SpringBoot to power user applications as well as app-to-app interactions
  • Design database structures and asset schemas to capture new workflow-specific data types
  • Partner with infrastructure teams to establish hardware requirements for emerging and rapidly changing business needs
  • Share ideas openly and 'farm for dissent' in an inclusive environment

Benefits

  • Employees at Netflix are often offered flexible, people-first benefits—unlimited time away, generous parental leave, global family-forming support, mental-health programs (mindfulness, free counseling/coaching), and health coverage tailored by country. Financially, Netflix pays at personal top-of-market and lets employees choose their mix of cash vs. fully-vested 10-year stock options, alongside donation and volunteer matching. Convenience perks can include trust-based travel/expense policies, relocation support, and “Work, Not Drive” rideshare flexibility.
