Job Details
Netflix is one of the world's leading entertainment services with 278 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.
The Role
Netflix has changed how people watch shows and movies, enabling on-demand access to thousands of movies and TV shows. Recently, Netflix has expanded its entertainment offering to include Live content, like the Tom Brady Roast, the SAG Awards ceremony, WWE Live events and NFL Christmas games. Bringing stories in real-time to 260+ million viewers around the world is a hard challenge, setting high requirements for levels of operational observability into key health metrics across dozens of services and systems between camera and device screens.
The Security Engineering organization ensures that Netflix can address top security risks while maintaining overall business agility, velocity, and scale.
We are expanding our investments in site reliability engineering through an embedded model in each of the following three security functions:
Identity and Authentication Security: The Identity and Authentication Security team creates and operates identity and authentication software services for Netflix. Our workforce and partners are global, and they access our information with different patterns from a variety of locations and devices. Our IAM use cases continue to become more complex as we increase investment in Netflix Originals content production ecosystems, including Gaming and LIVE streaming events. If you are curious about some of the team's work, you can watch this Building Identity for an Open Perimeter conference talk by our IAM engineers.
Platform Security: The Platform Security Team designs, creates, deploys, operates, and maintains some of the most critical security services at Netflix. Our projects include cryptography and key management, establishing identities for microservices, protecting secrets in code, issuing and managing certificates, and more. Our team is highly technical with strong backgrounds in both security and distributed systems software engineering.
Trust & Safety: The Trust & Safety team is a central security team that sets a broad strategic vision in the trust and safety space focused on various types of fraud and abuse. We execute that vision through both technical work on the team and cross-functional partnerships, addressing problems related to account takeover, service abuse, customer targeted scams, DDoS, content theft, and more. Our team builds large scale services fueled by data driven insights for automated detection and mitigation of fraud at-scale. With Netflix expanding to new product verticals such as Live, we have increased focus on ensuring high availability of Netflix infrastructure by mitigating availability risks, such as DDoS attacks, to provide a consistent viewing experience to our customers.
The Role
This role is a unique opportunity to be embedded in one of the above security teams to drive improvements in reliability and resiliency of critical Netflix infrastructure, thus supporting Netflix business growth in areas including but not limited to LIVE streaming events, Gaming and Ads!

In this role, you will participate in an on-call rotation to support security teams during Live events and be able to work with flexible hours based on the live events schedule. Collaborating with cross-functional teams, you will focus on implementing best practices, automation, and proactive measures to enhance the reliability of our systems. You will play a pivotal role in building robust service monitoring and observability and reducing the burden of human effort with tooling and automation.
This role is rewarding for people who have a passion for leveraging the right technology to solve business problems. We are seeking individuals with exceptional technical skills and experience in analyzing and resolving distributed systems breaks! If this excites you, we invite you to bring your unique career and life experiences to enrich the culture and diversity of our team.
What you'll need to be successful:
