Job Description

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.

At Netflix, our mission is to connect global stories with audiences worldwide. When a Netflix member opens our app, we have a few precious moments to help them choose a story or a game that is right for them at that instance. Presenting them evidence – Artwork, Trailers, Synopses – that authentically represents each title and resonates with the member is essential to this effort.

Beyond connecting global stories with existing audiences, we also aim to reach new subscribers and increase engagement through innovative marketing campaigns. By crafting compelling and targeted marketing strategies, we strive to capture the attention of potential members and convert their interest into subscriptions. Additionally, we focus on increasing conversation and excitement about Netflix and our content, creating buzz and anticipation that encourages both current and prospective members to explore and engage with our diverse offerings. 

Getting this evidence just right for each title is a tall order; however, the Promo Media Algo team, with assistance from creative supervision and member feedback data, have built tools & processes that use technologies like Computer Vision, and Machine Learning to enable our creators to tell the best version of the story they want while allowing our studio to scale further.

Our team is dedicated to pioneering the development of innovative tools and processes that leverage technologies like Computer Vision and Machine Learning. By integrating creative supervision and valuable member feedback, we create solutions that empower our stakeholders in Promo Media and Marketing. These advancements enhance storytelling capabilities and streamline workflows, enabling efficient scaling and making a significant impact on how we deliver compelling content to our global audience. 

Join us to be part of a team that is shaping the future of media and marketing at Netflix. We are looking for a Machine Learning Engineer to contribute to our innovative efforts and drive impactful solutions.
