Job Description

Netflix is seeking a Cloud Network Engineer to develop scalable and resilient network architectures that support its expanding services, including gaming and advertising.

Requirements

Experience developing solutions using cloud-native technologies and frameworks, with a strong focus on scalability and resilience.
Expertise in cloud networking, particularly within AWS, including VPC design, subnetting, security groups, and routing.
Experience with Go, Java, Python, or similar object-oriented programming languages.
Solid understanding of networking fundamentals across layers L2 to L7.
A deep commitment to continuous learning and the ability to navigate ambiguous areas.

Engaging directly with end engineering users to understand their needs and improve their experience.

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.
