We build, operate, and maintain Compute services so that Netflix developers can rely on foundational building blocks that enable a “set it and forget it” approach to achieving scalability and cost efficiency. Join us as we push the boundaries of performance and resilience, empowering developers to create groundbreaking applications on a reliable platform.In Compute Abstractions, we believe getting up and running in the cloud quickly should be the easiest step to getting your service running in the cloud. To help our internal customers do this, we offer APIs and managed configurations on our compute platform, Titus, that abstract away compute resource complexity and scaling responsiveness. We see the future as one where our customers can rely on industry-leading, scalable, right-sized, and optimized compute without the need to know anything about where or on what their workloads run. About YouWe are looking for a highly experienced, collaborative technical lead to drive our charter, guide engineering work for the team, and break new ground with hands-on innovation on the hardest technical challenges.
