Front-End Software Engineer 5 - Ecosystem and Operational Insights
About The Position
Netflix is one of the world's leading entertainment services, with over 300 million paid memberships in over 190 countries enjoying TV series, films and games across a wide variety of genres and languages. Members can play, pause and resume watching as much as they want, anytime, anywhere, and can change their plans at any time. The Client and Partner Technologies (CPT) team builds tools and services to scale the Netflix application platform to over half a billion devices while maintaining high quality standards. The Ecosystem and Operational Insights team within CPT is looking for a senior front-end engineer to help us revamp our suite of developer productivity tools. This team accelerates the software developer lifecycle at Netflix by building tools and services that improve feedback loops and enable confident code delivery. We work closely with our device labs which span iOS, Android, TV and web platforms, to provide reliable, real-world validation at scale. We are looking for versatile specialists who think beyond implementation details, who can empathize with fellow developers, challenge assumptions, and help shape the "why" behind what we build. You should bring a strong perspective on product direction and design, not just execution, and be comfortable working at the intersection of user experience, design, and modern web application development. You will excel if you are comfortable with the ambiguity that comes with innovation, can deliver scalable technical solutions, remove technical debt, make strategic decisions for long-term effectiveness, and approach problems with a curiosity-driven lens.
