  • Seeking Excellence – You enjoy the pursuit of engineering excellence by evangelizing, establishing and iterating on best practices.

  • Curiosity – You are curious and enjoy working on ambiguous problems where the solutions are not (yet) well defined.

  • Communication –  You are proficient in verbal and written mediums at explaining topics that the audience was not familiar with previously.

Qualifications

  • Experienced with Java or other JVM languages

  • Have built distributed systems components. You know how to debug them and how they can fail.

  • Energizing Challenges - there is a wealth of opportunity when working on complex technical projects and our culture both enables and encourages you to rise to the challenges.

  • Feedback – you will constantly have opportunities for growth because meaningful positive and constructive feedback is part of everyday life at Netflix.

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.
