Job description

As a Senior Data Scientist focused on Infrastructure Experimentation at Netflix, you will join a team dedicated to measuring and modeling the impact of product experiments on infrastructure. Your role will involve collaborating with various engineering teams to enhance the visibility and efficiency of our infrastructure usage. You will leverage your expertise in experimentation design, causal inference, and machine learning to support decision-making processes. The ideal candidate will be passionate about applying data science within the infrastructure domain.

Requirements

  • Experienced in experimentation methodology and causal inference, with a strong foundation in A/B testing.
  • Experienced in building and maintaining machine learning models in production.
  • Fluent in Python and SQL, with experience engineering data pipelines.
  • A strong collaborator who thrives in horizontal roles with broad stakeholder surfaces.
  • An exceptional communicator who can translate statistical concepts for diverse audiences.
  • Comfortable with messy, incomplete data environments and able to improve data quality over time.
  • A strong product thinker who views data science outputs as products.
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and minimal oversight.
  • Curious about infrastructure systems, with a motivation to learn.

Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain machine learning models that predict the infrastructure cost impact of A/B experiments.
  • Drive adoption of infrastructure metrics within the experimentation community through analysis and consultation.
  • Partner with platform teams to improve the quality and coverage of infrastructure usage data.
  • Extend the measurement framework to new metrics and experiment types.
  • Champion an infrastructure lens within the broader experimentation community.
  • Connect with the larger analytics and experimentation communities at Netflix.

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.
