Security Software Engineer 5

Netflix is one of the world's 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.

Every time you watch a show or play a game on Netflix, the Platform Security team is quietly working to keep your data and the company’s systems secure.

Netflix’s streaming service, our games, and our studio are backed up by an outstanding engineering organization and a unique security culture. By developing secure-by-default infrastructure and guiding engineers toward the most effective security practices, we favor rapid innovation over strict controls.

The Platform Security Team builds and runs foundational security services, such as cryptography, Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), and workload identity. You can help us build on our existing services and support new features for Netflix.

Your day-to-day work will focus on designing, building, and supporting features in our workload identity service to manage the identities of applications, hardware, and other entities. You’ll also contribute to our other services, including those that provide cryptography and PKI certificates company-wide. Once you’re familiar with the team’s work, you’ll join our on-call rotation to support these services.

Platform Security is an established, cohesive team where you’ll have the support to do your best work. We strive for a positive, supportive work environment that values collaboration over individual achievement. The Netflix culture determines who we hire, how we work together, and how we make decisions. It will inspire you to bring your best every day and to find new ways to make us all better.

• 5+ years of experience in Software Engineering with some years of exposure to security work
