In this role, you will dive into different functions and teams to answer questions like ''How have we improved productivity for Netflix employees?'', ''What was the impact of that engineering effort or product launch?'' and ''How do our reliability improvements directly reduce support volume?''. The questions you answer will help shape how senior leadership thinks about opportunities and challenges and enable us to evaluate and determine how our technology, services, and support impact Netflix employees.
