UI Engineer 5

The Netflix messaging Engineering team creates and delivers multi-channel messaging experiences across the customer lifecycle. The team owns the infrastructure, tools, channel integrations, and notification canvases that enable Netflix to communicate with its members and partners.

The Messaging Tools team is responsible for enabling the self-service use of Netflix’s messaging platform, which ultimately results in billions of messages monthly reaching consumers across our various channels. We own and build tooling and services for engineering and non-engineering stakeholders across consumer, games, enterprise, and studio. We empower our stakeholders to use configurable building blocks supporting message creation (template construction, UI modules, message personalization, targeting) and message operation (alerts, performance, optimization). We equally work closely with our partner teams to ensure the effective creation of those building blocks and reliable integration into services.

The Role

As a UI Engineer L4 on the Messaging Tools team, you are passionate about solving challenging problems with direct business impact across a wide variety of UI systems. You will be expected to work cross-functionally, with close collaboration between your stakeholders, product managers, designers, backend engineering partners, and other UI engineers to execute projects through to completion.

This role will give you the opportunity to:

• Expand and enhance our messaging enablement tools and services (UIs, developer CLIs, libraries) that meet our stakeholders (developers and non-developers) where they are.

• Provide and integrate the libraries, frameworks, and workflows that enable our stakeholders to create and operate their messages.

• Bring to life beautiful, high-quality, intuitive designs to delight our users.

• Build strong relationships with our stakeholders, empathizing with and knowing them so we can create the best solutions.

You will be a great fit if:

• 4+ years of professional experience designing, building, and shipping software using JavaScript or TypeScript and using unit tests and other automation to validate its quality. 

• Bonus if familiar with React or Node.

• Bonus if familiar with developing enterprise-level tools and services with an eye on delightful experiences, reliability, and testing.

• You are curious and enjoy working on ambiguous problems where the solutions are not (yet) well-defined.

• You strive to improve yourself and strive to help others grow. Your co-workers think of you as someone who is kind and does excellent work.

• You communicate effectively in both written and verbal form. You are a great listener and give all voices an opportunity to express themselves.

• You are self-driven and impact-oriented.  You are proactive and can move fast or pivot to meet the changing needs of the product.
