Who are we?

Netflix is one of the world's leading entertainment services, with 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.

At Netflix, we empower creators to shape the future of storytelling through cutting-edge technology. The Creative Innovation team identifies and incubates emerging technologies like generative AI, real-time tools, and transmedia to enhance creativity, streamline production timelines, and elevate member engagement. Through strategic business development, we enable global content teams to experiment and innovate at scale.

The Creative Innovation Intern will play a crucial role in supporting our innovation initiatives, with a specific focus on a project involving the discovery of unique and exciting use cases for Generative AI tools. This position is ideal for someone with a strong technical curiosity and a passion for exploring emerging technology applications. As an intern, you’ll be involved in program and project management, data wrangling, and categorization tasks, while also gaining hands-on experience with the filmmaking tools our productions use.

You do not need prior experience in these technologies to apply - simply an entrepreneurial spirit; once you submit your application, you’ll receive an email inviting you to complete your application by filling out an Airtable form. You’ll also be asked to submit a two-paragraph 300-word-maximum statement of intent (preferably in PDF format) within the form using the following prompt:

First paragraph: Prompt Question

⭐ What production technology that has helped shape the way films and TV shows are made excites you the most? Why do you think it’s important today, and how do you see it continuing to influence the future of filmmaking?

Second Paragraph: Prompt Question/Statement

⭐ Imagine you are pitching your own technology startup to Netflix to solve a specific filmmaking challenge - whether in pre-production, production, or post production. What would your innovative solution be, and why do you think it would make a difference?

This posting will be open for a very limited time and will be closed for new applications by February 7 so if you’re interested, please submit your application as soon as possible.
