Software Engineer

Netflix is taking its streaming experience global. We are looking for strong engineers to build a content management system to manage our digital assets. This solution is critical to the success of our service and company as we become a global leader in streaming technology. This new platform will manage the various digital assets that we procure from our content partners as well as all the metadata around these assets. You will build a platform and a portal that our key content partners will use to setup an efficient and automated supply chain for asset delivery to Netflix and our content partners.

In this role you will be a part of a team that will primarily
- Define metadata standards for our digital asset packages with our content vendors worldwide
- Build tools to efficiently manage and track packages and assets
- Architect and develop scalable, highly available solutions that run in the Amazon EC2 environment
- Integrate with large file delivery/acceleration products and services
- Build and integrate with tools to automate qualify and conformity verification
- Build crowd sourcing tools for enhanced metadata, subtitles etc.
- Build a secure portal for internal users and external partners to collaborate

Our platform of choice is Java, but that doesn't mean we are only looking for engineers with Java skills. If you are a rock star in another language/platform and you think you will be able to provide solutions to these challenges, we want to talk to you.

The organization is flat, process is minimal, individual responsibility is big, and there is an emphasis on keeping non-productive influences out of the everyday technical decision process. Upholding these philosophies will be imperative as we execute our aggressive plan of global expansion.

Here is your cheat sheet for the interview:
- You can envision the challenges involved in architecting a business to business data exchange solution
- You are a hands-on architect who enjoys coding
- You are a guru in Object Oriented analysis and design, programming and Service Oriented Architecture
- You believe in test driven development and writing testable code
- You have excellent data modeling skills
- You are self-driven and can deliver solutions partnering with both external and internal development teams without a project manager
- You are curious about emerging technologies and can quickly evaluate and adapt to new technologies
- You can quickly respond to the changing business needs and roll out functionality in small increments rather than a big bang approach
- You having experience in writing web services for external partners is a plus
- You having experience in design and development of tiered applications deployed in a public cloud is a plus
