Job Description

Creative Production and Promotion sits at the intersection of the consumer experience and the Netflix Studio. We are constantly working to connect our members with shows and movies they love by innovating on artwork, trailers, subtitles, dubbing, metadata and more. The team plays an integral role in improving the personalization and creative excellence of the Netflix service. Because our products touch both members and content creators, we seek someone who can fluidly move among both worlds, applying strong product principles and strategic frameworks to a creative space. An ideal candidate is someone who is forward-thinking and future-oriented, and practically-minded.

We create content in 35+ languages and deliver it to 35+ languages via timed text and audio experiences. As the Product Manager leading our localization suite, you will be in charge of improving our ability to bring our product and technology to the world. You will lead a cross-functional team of designers, engineers, analysts, and other specialists to push the boundaries for our localization capabilities. A successful candidate will have the creativity to look at problems in new ways and the boldness to try new things, a hypothesis-driven mentality, a balance of creativity and analytic skills, and exceptional organizational influence.

About This Role

This position operates at a senior level, owning critical decisions and progress in this domain. Some of the questions this leader will work through:
- How do we make the Netflix experience culturally relevant in every country?
- How do we empower teams across Netflix to self-service their localization needs?
- How do we localize our titles and promotional content?

At Netflix, our product team is small, so you will have the opportunity to make a big impact, and our unique culture drives our approach to innovation.

Responsibilities
• Collaborate on the vision and strategy for Globalization at Netflix.
• Lead the formation of an experimentation strategy alongside Data Science and Algorithm teams.
• Work with teams around the globe to roll out products to our talent, the studio, and partners.
• Lead cross-functional teams including design, engineering, and data science to discover and execute opportunities.
• Communicate your vision and strategy broadly throughout the organization.

What We're Looking For
• Experience with machine learning, algorithms, and experimentation.
• Exceptional analytical and data science skills
• Experience with localization and translation is a plus
• Proven record of successfully launching products or platforms.
• Ability to mobilize the entire organization towards a common goal.
• A rigorous approach to developing strategy and execution.
• Demonstrated understanding of good UX.
• Ability to prioritize well and articulate your plan across business functions and geographies.
• Ability to inspire, motivate, and lead designers and engineers.
