Full Time Job
The Interactive Design team is hiring a senior-level product designer to help us create elegant interactive content creation tools for our external and internal production teams. In the role of Product Designer, Interactive Tools you will apply your passion for application design, creative workflows, and storytelling to help content creators reimagine the future of entertainment experiences on Netflix. You will work closely with a talented team of designers, product managers, engineers, title operations, and external content producers to design and create the tools being used to produce new story experiences for millions of Netflix viewers around the world.
We make decisions based on data, observing and reacting to how systems are impacted by our choices. The organization is flat, process is minimal, individual responsibility is big, and there is an emphasis on keeping non-productive influences out of the everyday decision process. As a result, the ideal candidate will be able to create order out of ambiguity, drive challenging design initiatives, as well as do detailed hands-on design work-from wireframes and specs all the way to asset creation and implementation. Above all, you have deep expertise and passion for designing tools and applications intended to reduce user friction and maximize creative output.
On the heels of Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, now is an especially exciting time to join our design team as we evolve the future of entertainment yet again. If you're ready to add your vision-to imagine an alternate future-this is a rare opportunity. The things you discover and create will have widespread impact within Netflix and around the world for our 140M members.
