Full Job Description

The TV Client Paved Paths & Workflows team aims to provide a holistic, world-class experience for creating , including Netflix’s flagship streaming app. We enable engineers to deliver product initiatives that bring joy to people worldwide by focusing on a high-quality, high-velocity, joyful developer experience.

Your team will have the exciting opportunity to enable new immersive product experiences by scaling capabilities and empowering partners through TV platform paved paths, self-service tools, and agentic workflows.

The Role

We are looking for an Engineering Manager to lead our TV Client Paved Paths & Workflows team. This team sits at the intersection of the TV platform and our product partners. The team enables product innovation through investments like self-service tooling, agentic workflows, design-engineering workflows, design systems, component libraries, and server-driven contracts.

Role Expectations:

  • Lead a platform engineering team that builds products for engineers and product partners
  • Build strong relationships with Design, Product, UI Engineering, and foundational partners
  • Build and support a team of senior software engineers who value inclusion, transparency, autonomy, and humility
  • Bring partners and the business along by illustrating the value and impact of the team’s work
  • Empower, challenge, and coach team members to grow their impact as individual technical leaders by providing them with context and continuous feedback.
  • Exemplify the Netflix culture by understanding, advocating, and demonstrating its values

You:

Our team members excel when they are curious, growth-oriented, and collaborative. We take a customer-centric approach to our work, so listening, learning, and adapting are essential. We assume good intent and consistently seek to improve ourselves and our solutions. There are no absolutes, and we must remain flexible to meet the needs of our customers and the business, so “strong opinions loosely held” is a valued attribute within the team.

If this resonates with you, we’d love to talk!

What’s Different About Us:

  • Scale, Impact: You’ll enable over 70 engineers to create best-in-class streaming UIs used by hundreds of millions of members across a broad spectrum of devices worldwide.
  • Unique Technical Problems: While our stack is primarily JavaScript and TypeScript, you’ll build on our custom TV platform with unique constraints and capabilities.
  • Collaboration and Communication: It’s not all about the tech. We highly value the skills required to build strong relationships and collaborate effectively.
  • Freedom, Responsibility, Ownership: We believe in providing engineers with the business context they need and giving them the freedom and responsibility to define project scope, define/debate architecture, identify trade-offs, and figure out the implementation details.
  • Our Culture: Lastly, but most importantly, we live by our values.

What Sets You Apart:

  • Experience leading in product or UI engineering domains.
  • You’re passionate about serving engineers as customers.
  • You enjoy pushing the boundaries of what technology can do and exploring uncharted waters.
  • You love to empower engineers and strive to understand their use cases.
  • You are interested in developer experience industry trends and are always striving to improve.
  • You value the perspective of others when identifying solutions.
  • You know there is rarely one ‘right’ solution, and you make thoughtful trade-offs.
  • You understand that our goal is to solve problems, and a language, framework, or library is a means to an end.
Generally, our compensation structure consists solely of an annual salary; we do not have bonuses. You choose each year how much of your compensation you want in salary versus stock options. To determine your personal top of market compensation, we rely on market indicators and consider your specific job family, background, skills, and experience to determine your compensation in the market range. The range for this role is $436,000.00 - $710,000.00. This compensation range will vary based on location.

Netflix provides comprehensive benefits including Health Plans, Mental Health support, a 401(k) Retirement Plan with employer match, Stock Option Program, Disability Programs, Health Savings and Flexible Spending Accounts, Family-forming benefits, and Life and Serious Injury Benefits. We also offer paid leave of absence programs. Full-time hourly employees accrue 35 days annually for paid time off to be used for vacation, holidays, and sick paid time off. Full-time salaried employees are immediately entitled to flexible time off. See more details about our Benefits here.
