The Team
We want to invent entertainment experiences the world can’t live without, connecting people with stories they’ll love. The Member Experiences Product Management team is accountable for making the core Netflix experience better every day for over 270M members. Our work spans all platforms (TV/living room, mobile, tablet, and web), and includes experiences and ranking/recommendations strategy across discovery/browse (shows, movies, live programming, and games), player, identity/profiles, and new surfaces.
The Role
We are looking for an experienced Product Manager to join the team. You will lead work focused on experiences that help members discover what to watch or play next, and features that help members get more out of their Netflix subscription.
In partnership with the cross-functional team, you will set the vision and conceive of ideas that delight members, convert those ideas into well-scoped projects, prioritize smartly among competing efforts, and lead the team to execute at a high level.
This role is based in our Los Gatos (preferred) or Los Angeles office in a hybrid model.
As a Product Manager at Netflix, you will:
- Make a meaningful contribution. Our key product managers -- including this position -- work with multiple teams but do not have direct reports. We’re looking for experienced product managers who are strategic and also like rolling up their sleeves.
- Take on big responsibility. Netflix offers PMs autonomy and substantial scope.
- Be expected to learn every day and enjoy being curious. You will be creating experiences that may not exist yet. You will work with stunning colleagues who value collaboration and from whom you can learn.
- Contribute to and benefit from an environment where you can grow your career. Many of our top execs started out as individual contributors.
Who will be successful in this role?
- To be successful in this position, you will partner with world-class teams across design, engineering, research, and data science, flexing both your analytical acumen and ability to use your intuition to empathize with customer problems.
- You will frequently use experimentation as a way to validate your hypotheses.
The following attributes are highly valued on the PM team:
- An ability to synthesize the complex into the simple and persuasive, and tell compelling stories with data.
- Excellent data-informed judgment.
- Good balance between being collaborative and open to alternative views versus being decisive and clearly communicating the vision for the team.
- Comfort advocating for a path forward among ambiguous options.
- An eagerness to seek feedback and improve.
- Familiarity with and enthusiasm for entertainment products.
Skills
- Experience building consumer products (4-6 years minimum) with a proven record of prioritizing and launching experiences valued by consumers.
- Proven ability to map algorithmic solutions to product problems.
- Demonstrated leadership working effectively with designers, data scientists, engineers, researchers, and colleagues across content, communications, and marketing.
- Experience with A/B testing.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills and an ability to present technical content to non-technical audiences.
- Very high attention to detail, with an ability to connect the smallest experience elements to the big picture goals at the company and team level.
