Netflix is one of the world's leading entertainment services, with over 300 million paid memberships in over 190 countries enjoying TV series, films and games across a wide variety of genres and languages. Members can play, pause and resume watching as much as they want, anytime, anywhere, and can change their plans at any time.

About the role

As a Compute Cloud Platform SRE, you will ensure the reliability, scalability, and operational excellence of Netflix’s compute platforms, including EC2, Titus (our Kubernetes based container platform), managed batch, and function abstractions by building automation and tooling, driving observability and monitoring, and partnering closely with engineering teams across runtime, abstractions, and capacity to reduce toil and complexity for customers. You’ll play a key role in modernizing our stack toward industry-standard technologies, improving launch latency and efficiency, participating in on-call rotations and incident response, and collaborating cross-functionally to deliver integrated and consistent cloud compute experiences at scale.

Responsibilities 

• Design, implement, and enhance monitoring, alerting, and observability for compute services and abstractions.

• Partner with Engineering team to modernize and migrate to industry-standard container, orchestration, and capacity technologies.

• Collaborate on the design and rollout of new managed abstractions (e.g., intent-based APIs, managed scaling, centralized capacity).

• Lead and participate in post-incident reviews, driving actionable improvements to system reliability.

• Develop tools and dashboards to provide visibility into utilization, efficiency, and cost for compute resources.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience operating and scaling large-scale, high-performance cloud infrastructure or distributed systems.

• Deep knowledge in Kubernetes, container runtimes (containerd, Docker), and related cloud native ecosystem tools.

• Deep expertise in Linux/Unix systems, networking fundamentals, and cloud platforms (AWS strongly preferred).

• Proficient in at least one programming language (Go, Python, Rust, Java etc).

• Familiarity with auto scaling, fleet management, and capacity planning at scale.

• Familiarity with open source observability and telemetry tooling for logs, metrics, and traces, including Prometheus and OpenTelemetry.

• [Preferred] Experience with cost optimization, utilization analytics, and/or cloud efficiency initiatives.
