Spotlight on Content Engineering Teams:

Promotional Media Engineering 

The Promotional Media Management (PMM) team builds the systems that allow users to publish, collaborate, store, share, and discover promotional assets (artwork and video that are used to promote our titles, both on- and off-service). We ingest asset media files along with their metadata, usage rights and restrictions, and all of the other information necessary to drive good business decisions about our assets. Our flagship product, the Promotional Asset Library (PAL), serves both internal users and vendors outside of Netflix, and serves as a central hub for the discovery and distribution of promotional assets. We also develop horizontal platform services for asset management that power other applications across Promotional Media Engineering.

Creator Tooling

We own the applications that designers and strategists use to watch content and handpick the images, clips, and copy that show up on the Netflix site and across marketing channels like social. These tools shape how millions of people experience a title, all across the globe. The work is deeply creative, and now we're layering in GenAI to power features like smart image suggestions and dynamic asset generation. We're building with purpose and with plenty of room to explore.

Content Security Engineering

Studio Foundations Engineering (SFE), part of CIS plays a pivotal role in Netflix's content and games creation and delivery journey. The seamless magic of your favorite show starting with a click is the result of thousands of intricate processes and workflows behind the scenes that are enabled by our tools. We empower Netflix studios to bring creative excellence to life, build tools to bring operational excellence, and accomplish economies of scale. Our solutions aim to elevate the ROI of the $15 billion dollars spent on content creation through cost/time efficiency, and data-driven decision-making. We also provide technology to manage end-user access and build tools that help with resourcing workflows resulting in the production and delivery of the highest-quality content. Netflix leverages a large internal and external workforce to produce and deliver content to members. Globally, many thousands of people get access to sensitive data and applications to do this work. As part of the Content Security team, you will focus on building scalable solutions that help to identify areas of security risk across our business product ecosystem and prevent unintended exposure of Netflix pre-release assets and data.
