The Role

Netflix is the world’s leading streaming entertainment service with 250 million paid memberships in over 190 countries, enjoying TV series, documentaries, feature films, and mobile games across a wide variety of genres and languages. Employees have tremendous freedom in their work, along with the corresponding responsibility to do the right thing for Netflix. Instead of controlling engineers with process and security gates, we enable them to build secure systems and provide them with adequate security context to make the right decisions for Netflix.

The Security Engineering organization exists to ensure that Netflix can appropriately address top enterprise security risks while maintaining overall business agility, velocity, and scale.

The Application and Infrastructure Security (AIS) team within Security Engineering aims to manage risk in our engineering ecosystem through strategic security initiatives in high-risk or high-leverage areas. We conduct risk discovery, security strategy development and execution, identification and execution of high impact security initiatives across Netflix applications and infrastructure.

We are looking for a Security Engineer to join the team to work closely with our infrastructure, platform, and network engineering teams to help evolve our security strategy in these areas to meet dynamic business demands. You will partner closely with engineering teams and other security functions to improve security at Netflix.

Desired BackgroundWe are looking for a thoughtful and unusually responsible security professional — someone who’s self-motivated, self-aware and self-disciplined — to help advance the aforementioned mission. We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet every single one of the listed criteria. We value the unique perspectives, skills, and experiences each candidate brings with them.
