Job summary

Netflix seeks a senior engineer to join the Ads Platform Foundations team, designing and building core platform primitives and APIs that power enterprise GenAI use cases across the Ads organization.

You will partner with domain teams, own the tool/calling framework, memory, and retrieval subsystems, and drive platform reliability with strong backend engineering and scalable SDKs. Expect rapid iteration and production-grade delivery.

Qualifications

• GenAI experience in enterprise contexts.
• Experience building platforms/frameworks/SDKs.
• Track record of shipping new systems quickly.
• Strong API/SDK design and backend engineering.
• Experience with agent-system building blocks: tool calling, orchestration, RAG.

Responsibilities

• Design and build core platform primitives - agent framework, tool/skill registry, orchestration runtime, memory and retrieval infrastructure, evaluation harness - that other domain teams use to build their own agents and skills.
• Define APIs/SDKs and integration patterns so domain teams can plug in their own enterprise (non-coding) use cases without rebuilding core agent infrastructure.
• Build and iterate on the platform's tool/function-calling framework, planning/orchestration layer, memory, and retrieval subsystems.
• Explore entity/knowledge graphs as a shared grounding/context layer that multiple agents on the platform can draw on.
• Partner with domain teams to understand their use cases and shape the platform's building blocks and roadmap accordingly.
• Own platform reliability, evaluation/observability tooling, and guardrails that other teams' agents inherit for free.
• Ship fast - take things from prototype to a platform primitive other teams can adopt, with tight iteration cycles.
