Netflix is one of the worlds leading entertainment services, with 283 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.

The Model Observability & Lifecycle Management team’s centralized MLOps platform multiplies the productivity of both the Machine Learning Platform (MLP) organization and all ML practitioners across Netflix. We maintain the reliability of ML applications by building systems to catch and diagnose issues as soon as possible, sometimes before they even happen!

We’re building a comprehensive and centralized system for managing ML models, featuring capabilities like visualization, observability, and performance benchmarking. Our paved path for MLOps will reduce redundancy, minimize operational overhead, and offer standardized workflows and UIs to researchers and infrastructure engineers throughout the company.

We seek strong engineers to develop and expand our model observability and visualization workflows to support bandits, multi-task learning models, Large Language Models (LLMs), and other foundation models. Our tools and systems support and enable 100s of ML practitioners to develop some of Netflix’s most business-critical models across personalization, growth and commerce, ads, and studio algorithms. You will play a highly cross-functional role, partnering with other engineers, product managers, machine learning engineers, and data/research scientists to elevate our ML/AI initiatives and drive impactful innovation.

Snapshot of projects you may work on:

Observability dashboard and corresponding backend system to integrate with various MLP products to enable ML practitioners to explore and discover ML entities (models, features, embeddings, pipelines, etc.) and monitor and operate them effectively
Model registry to catalog ML models and their versions to enable discoverability, including core model store functionality with an API backend and an SDK integration layer
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to implement anomaly and drift detection on models, features, embeddings, etc., automatically detecting and alerting on staleness and quality issues and suggesting or implementing fixes
Cost monitoring and chargeback dashboards to provide visibility into resource utilization and identify opportunities for efficiency improvements
Enhance our user interfaces to provide intuitive and seamless experiences for ML practitioners, incorporating feedback and best practices to improve usability and adoption.

We would love to work with you if:

You have experience building backend distributed systems and full-stack systems using object-oriented programming (preferably Java), web API frameworks (preferably Spring Boot), and UI frameworks like React.
You are experienced working with the public cloud like AWS, Azure, or GCP.
You have knowledge of ML model lifecycle management and MLOps best practices to support end-to-end development, deployment, and monitoring of ML models.
You proactively communicate with cross-functional teams to drive projects and promote best practices in observability and logging.
You have a BS/MS in Computer Science, Applied Math, Engineering, or a related field.

Our compensation structure consists solely of an annual salary; we do not have bonuses. You choose each year how much of your compensation you want in salary versus stock options. To determine your personal top-of-market compensation, we rely on market indicators and consider your specific job family, background, skills, and experience to determine your compensation in the market range. The range for this role is $100,000 - $619,000K
