Save Job

Netflix is one of the world's leading entertainment services, with over 300 million paid memberships in more than 190 countries. Members can watch TV series, films, and games across a wide variety of genres and languages, pause and resume at any time, and change their plans whenever they choose.

The Partner Platform Engineering team builds scalable, highly‑available, and resilient distributed systems, along with partner APIs, to drive partner product innovations. Our primary focus areas include partner payments and Partner UI. Partner Payments enable customer sign‑up, account management, and payments through partner channels, while Partner UI empowers partners to display Netflix title recommendations on their UIs outside Netflix apps. We also offer B2B solutions that allow partners to reconcile account states or promote Netflix titles within their user experiences. Our services provide an abstraction layer that isolates the complexities of external challenges from our internal systems, delivering flexible integration options and building partner product innovations on our internal platforms.

Here are some media reports about our team’s products and business impact: Naver‑Netflix Partnership boosts membership by 1.5 times; Canal Plus Group Netflix announces partnership in France; Netflix joins Optus SubHub as subscription partner.

As a member of this team, you will build Partner Payments products to drive revenue growth and improve key acquisition metrics. You will also have opportunities to work on infrastructure initiatives to uphold technical excellence, optimise and streamline operations, and elevate our partner‑facing APIs to the next level of greatness.
