Software Engineer L4/L5 - Content Infrastructure & Solutions

Netflix is seeking a Senior Software Engineer for their Content Infrastructure & Solutions (CIS) team, specifically within the Media Infrastructure Platform team (MIP). This role offers a unique opportunity to work on both developer-facing tooling and high-scale distributed systems in the domain of media processing and storage. The position involves developing crucial components of media processing and storage infrastructure while owning operational tooling development.

The role combines technical leadership with hands-on development, requiring expertise in both backend and frontend technologies. You'll be working with Java on the backend and TypeScript/React + GraphQL on the frontend, building systems that operate at Netflix's massive scale. The position demands someone who can handle complex projects independently while collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams.

Key responsibilities include evolving operational tooling to incorporate SLO management, improving infrastructure observability, and developing self-service tools for Netflix engineers. The role requires experience in operating production systems with high reliability standards and building platforms for other engineers to consume.

The ideal candidate will bring strong decision-making abilities, especially in ambiguous situations, and a passion for clean, well-tested, performant code. You'll be working in an inclusive environment that values diversity and innovation, contributing to systems that support Netflix's global content production needs.

This is an excellent opportunity for a senior engineer who wants to impact how Netflix handles its massive-scale media processing and storage infrastructure, while also helping to shape the future of operational tooling within the organization.
