Job Details - this job has expired, please see similar jobs below
Netflix is the leading provider of streaming video, reaching over 80 million subscribers in more than 190 countries and territories around the world. Our subscribers consume over five billion hours of video a quarter and account for third of the downstream Internet traffic. Subscribers enjoy Netflix on more than 1,000 different device types. Supporting this global brand presents significant engineering challenges. At the center of solving those challenges is the Netflix Content Platform, responsible for the creation and refinement of content streamed by our members.
The Content Platform is a suite of internal tools for operations, which composes the world’s deepest catalog of information about tv shows and features. Our challenge is scaling to meet the demands of a global catalog that is constantly growing. As part of this role, you will be designing the future of our tools to manage and enhance this catalog of data, which is leveraged everywhere from production to the service.
About Us
Although Netflix is an established company, in many ways we still act like a start up. You'll work in a bullpen with your team and exchange ideas and hypotheses, rapidly testing and iterating. We make decisions based on data, observing how systems are impacted by our choices, and sharing a deep understanding with our users.
The organization is flat, process is minimal, individual responsibility is big, and there is an emphasis on keeping non-productive influences out of the everyday decision process.
The Content Platform Design Team
Our designers are generalists who span multiple disciplines - user research, information architecture, ideation, prototyping, interaction design and visual design. We work with our end users to investigate, learn, and ideate. Our team of designers builds the internal tools that drive content setup and delivery from the camera to the service.
The design team is a flat, individual responsibility and impact is big. Each member of the team is fully autonomous. They are leads for their products and take full ownership of the design and are responsible for every detail.
About You
You are a leader in your domain. You measure success by the amount of value you bring to the business.
You are comfortable thinking inductively and deductively. You think big picture and small wins all within the same cycle. You can articulately describe large systems and express the most appropriate of details. You have exceptional communication skills. You know how to work cross-functionally with multiple teams, as well as make your ideas and data clear to get everyone on the same page.
Finally, you have tremendous visual design skills and the ability to tell a story. You solve interactive, three dimensional problems in time and space, and are passionate about taking existing art and bringing out its best pieces while adding your own innovative ideas. You know how to take complicated workflows and make them elegant. You have the patience to build something magical.
We've built the underlying systems that allow product innovation. We know it can be even better-with your help.
