Jobbeschreibung

We're hiring a Performance Engineer for the unglamorous, essential work of making Leadership fast enough that nobody notices it at all. This is $73,000 - $114,000 for 4 years of GitLab CI, a temporary schedule, and a mid-level stake in where Netflix Studios heads next.

Key Responsibilities

• Wrangle GitHub Actions config across environments so Norfolk staging mirrors production
• Map data flow across Netflix Studios's Scrum services and spot the leaks
• Cut .NET Core cold-start times so Netflix Studios functions wake before VA users notice
• Partner with QA to define test coverage and catch regressions early
• Enhance test automation frameworks to increase release confidence
• Collaborate with product and design teams to ship features end to end
• Harden Netflix Studios's GitHub Actions auth so the VA audit comes back clean

What You'll Bring

• The judgment to say no to good ideas at the wrong time
• 4+ years that left you with strong instincts and few illustrations
• Real Cypress chops, plus the Leadership curiosity to keep growing
• Experience thriving in a scrappy-but-steady, deadline-driven setting like Netflix Studios
• Fluency in Emotional Intelligence earned the hard way, not just from a tutorial

Three things define Netflix Studios: a Norfolk address, a deeply-bought-in culture, and a near-religious devotion to Leadership. We believe the best technology decisions get made closest to the work, not three floors up.

This temporary role pays $73,000 - $114,000 and includes flexible scheduling plus a structured plan to grow your GitHub Actions expertise.

Reopened and refreshed, the search for a mid-level candidate runs hot today.

We're keeping this Performance Engineer search short, so put your hat in the ring this week.
