UI Engineer (L4), Growth Experience Engineering

Netflix is one of the world's leading entertainment services, with 283 million paid memberships in over 190 countries enjoying TV series, films and games across a wide variety of genres and languages. Members can play, pause and resume watching as much as they want, anytime, anywhere, and can change their plans at any time.

On the Growth Product Experiences team, we’re passionate about the intersection of our business as the world’s leading streaming video company and the complex engineering challenges that come with that scale.  We work on A/B tests and product features across our web, TV, and mobile platforms that help to introduce Netflix to even more people around the world, encourage them to sign up, and keep them thrilled and engaged as members who stay with us for the long-term.  

People who excel on our team are growth-oriented, curious, and selfless.  We are part of a global, diverse organization that values inclusion and equity. We encourage anyone who is passionate about building compelling UI experiences that touch audiences around the world to apply.

This is a hybrid role based out of Netflix’s headquarters in Los Gatos, California, with the expectation of working from Netflix’s HQ in Los Gatos, California at least 3 days a week. Relocation assistance is provided along with generous parental leave, vacation, and reproductive benefits.

About the role

• Collaborate with engineers, designers, and product managers to build delightful, performant, and accessible user experiences.

• Contribute to product features and A/B tests by using JavaScript / TypeScript, React, and GraphQL.

• Develop highly maintainable web and TV client code (both React applications) with effective documentation.

• Write automated tests with React Testing Library and other test frameworks, from unit tests to full end-to-end UI automation, to deliver high-quality code.

• Pioneer emerging techniques such as server-driven UI (SDUI) to help us more rapidly experiment across multiple platforms with the Netflix design system.

What sets you apart?

• 3+ years of professional experience designing, building, and shipping software using JavaScript or TypeScript, and using unit tests and other automation to validate its quality.  

• Bonus if familiar with React, GraphQL, or server-driven UI techniques.

• Curious about a broad range of new or unfamiliar technologies, our consumer base, and the product and business challenges that we face.

• Always seeking different perspectives, feedback, and relevant information to continuously grow and improve.

• Taking a thoughtful, practical approach to problem-solving that considers tradeoffs and avoids over-engineering.

• Endeavors to elevate the knowledge, skills, and abilities of yourself and others that is conducive to fostering an inclusive, collaborative environment.

What’s different about us?

• Growth Product Experiences is a team that celebrates and values the business impact we have on Netflix, and not just the engineering contributions we make.  If you have a strong product mindset that loves knowing how your work directly impacts our customer growth and revenue, this is the team for you.

• We move fast and iterate quickly - we take ideas from concept to reality in a matter of weeks, not quarters.  Expect a broader range of projects compared to other teams.

• Inclusivity is something we embrace - diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and styles are something we’re proud of.  You can be your authentic self on this team, as we look for culture adds, not culture fits.
