Full Job Description
Since launching our ad-supported tier in 2022, the momentum has been unstoppable-we reach over 94 million global monthly active users! As we enter our fourth year, our ambition is massive, and we are just getting started.

Our Team

The Ads Platform Engineering creates the ecosystem that spans across the "Pitch to Pay" process. It goes all the way from enabling our sales teams (and other DSPs, resellers) to engage advertisers to run their campaigns on Netflix, and cuts across inventory and order management, campaign execution, ad serving, audience onboarding, targeting and delivery, measurement, reporting and finance.

Our team is new, yet we have enormous ambitions of building highly performant advertising systems and delivering high impact to our business by monetizing our incredible slate of content. As one of the newest entrants in the rapidly growing Connected TV advertising space, we seek to build unique value propositions that help us differentiate from the competition and become a market leader in record time.

We are looking for highly motivated engineers working in the advertising space who are excited to join us on this journey.

The Ads Reporting Engineering team's mission is to provide high quality reports and metrics that demonstrate Netflix's value as a premium advertising platform.

Skills & experience we're seeking:
  • Build and scale advertiser-grade reporting applications that allow internal teams and, over time, external advertisers to explore, filter, schedule, and download Ads performance data.
  • Proven experience working on a fullstack engineering team, effectively bridging UI and backend development, including defining and managing API contracts between them and leading an end-to-end fullstack project.
  • Experience building scalable backend systems in Java, Kotlin, or similar JVM languages
  • Proficiency in modern UI frameworks (React preferred), TypeScript/JavaScript, and Node.js
  • Product mindset that is deeply empathetic to user needs, strategic in orientation, and driven by outcomes
  • Ads domain experience: broad knowledge of ad tech and advertising landscape, programmatic advertising, and digital marketing trends.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and manage multiple priorities effectively.
  • Excellent communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.


Nice to haves:
  • Expertise in owning and optimizing the Ads Druid analytics layer, powering low-latency, high-concurrency OLAP workloads that back all reporting, dashboards, and programmatic data access.
  • Familiarity with legal compliance and changing landscape of ads regulations around the world.
  • Experience working in the CTV space and knowledge of it's unique constraints

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.
