Job description

Netflix Studios needs a hands-on Automation Engineer who can architect, code, and deploy without losing sight of quality. Honestly, the draw is the ownership: $114,000 - $174,000 and hybrid hours come standard, but the technology reins are the real prize.

Key Responsibilities

• Pull Netflix Studios's API Testing stack out of the CA region before the migration deadline
• Configure and manage infrastructure as code across staging and production
• Automate the manual Test Automation chores that quietly drain Berkeley, CA engineering hours
• Watch ISTQB Certification error budgets and pump the brakes before Berkeley, CA burns through them
• Set the Stress Management coding standards the rest of Netflix Studios engineering follows
• Backfill SpecFlow test coverage on the riskiest corners of Netflix Studios's codebase
• Own data integrity across Netflix Studios's ISTQB Certification stores so Berkeley numbers never lie

What You'll Bring

• 4 or more years steering technology projects end to end
• The grit to debug at 4pm on a Friday without complaint4+ years that left you with strong instincts and few *illusions*
• Self-motivated and able to work independently with minimal oversight
• Customer-focused outlook with strong interpersonal skills
• Bug Tracking fundamentals plus the SpecFlow polish clients notice

Somewhere between a startup and an institution, Netflix Studios has spent years perfecting Analytical Thinking for clients all over Berkeley, CA. Burnout is treated as a system bug at Netflix Studios, not a badge of purpose-led honor.

From the $114,000 - $174,000 starting line, expect coaching that grows your Bug Tracking and benefits that quietly cover the rest of life.

This one is current, freshly dated, and very much hiring.
