Our story
Platform Engineering is focused on providing technical products, tools, and services that enable Netflix to scale and innovate. We want to empower Netflix engineers to focus on building innovative experiences for our members and creators around the world. We deploy hundreds of services on thousands of instances across multiple regions and millions of client devices. Platform Engineering Teams focus on increasing agility, efficiency, and reliability across our compute, networking, productivity, and data products.
Within Platform Engineering, the Productivity organization helps engineers build, test, deploy, and operate software with speed and confidence by providing internal platforms and tools that streamline development workflows, ensure software hygiene, and surface actionable insights across the software lifecycle. This includes improving developer interactions across multiple tools and surfaces, reducing context switching, and driving consistency across platforms like Console (Developer Portal) and our SW Command Center. These efforts span UI/UX, backend services such as Observability, and have a significant impact on software quality and engineering velocity.
This role will drive high-impact cross-functional programs focused on unifying the developer experience and enhancing visibility into the software lifecycle. This work will extend across key developer touchpoints, including our Developer Platform to enable more cohesive workflows and confident ownership. They will also drive alignment across divergent ownership models and contribute to evolving a consistent, metadata-rich single entity ownership model across software and data.
A successful candidate will have experience working with internal platforms, developer tooling, or productivity-focused infrastructure. They will have led cross-functional efforts with design, product, and engineering teams, and will be able to bring structure to evolving problem spaces. They will be comfortable with ambiguity, grounded in systems thinking, and excited to drive improvements that touch thousands of developers across Netflix.
If you’re looking for a technical and dynamic opportunity that will shape how engineering happens at Netflix, we’d love to talk to you.
What You Will Do
Own and drive multiple cross-functional programs, in collaboration with technical teams (including product, engineering, UI/UX, etc), that focus on building a scalable, reliable, and secure infrastructure foundation.
Deliver a unified developer experience by building cohesive workflows in our developer portal.
Translate strategic goals into executable roadmaps and drive execution, aligning engineers, PMs, and practitioners across multiple orgs and domains.
Craft and drive engagement with partners, work to decompose requirements into technical execution plans with multiple engineering teams, track progress towards goals, and report status to product, customers, and technical leadership.
Champion breaking out OKRs into measurable milestones while proactively managing risks, blockers, and delays.
Manage cross-functional dependencies, risks, and changes effectively by optimizing scope, schedule, and resources accordingly.
What We Are Looking For
Functional Skills
Thrive in ambiguity and bring structure to complex, interconnected technical domains.
Passionate about improving the day-to-day experience of software engineers.
Understand the challenges of building platforms that serve internal developers.
Ability to drive platform convergence and influence product decisions through partnership and clarity.
Intent to work with urgency, humility, and accountability, building trust across product and engineering.

Self-starter who enjoys tackling 0 to 1 problem spaces and quickly bringing organization and direction.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including clear articulation of business impact and technical constraints tailored to the audience.
Hands-on approach. Not afraid to pull data, dive into logs, or whiteboard solution paths.
