VP of Engineering Netflix Indianapolis, IN

We need a VP of Engineering who can take a vague technology request and return a ruthlessly-focused system that does exactly, and only, what was asked. The VP of Engineering role rewards range — Java, Next.js, 12 years — with $182,000 - $273,000 and a seat that grows beyond it.

Key Responsibilities

• Tune database queries and schemas for high-throughput Netflix worklo
• Refine and maintain microservices that support Netflix customers in Indianapolis, IN
• Keep Netflix's Agile CI under ten minutes so Indianapolis, IN engineers stay in flow
• Trace a candor-rich technology bug across three Agile services to the one bad line
• Mentor the vp cohort through their first real Next.js on-call at Netflix
• Harden Netflix's Next.js auth so the IN audit comes back clean

What You'll Bring

• Real proficiency with Django, plus willingness to learn GitLab CI fast
• An appetite for ownership that scales with the stakes
• Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
• Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities
• Ability to thrive both independently and as part of a tight-knit team
• Comfort steering technology conversations toward a decision

Founded in Indianapolis, IN during a downturn, Netflix grew generously-mentoring and lean while flashier technology rivals burned out. Decisions at Netflix come with a name attached, because ownership without accountability is just noise.

The package speaks for itself: $182,000 - $273,000, coaching, coverage, and the flexible internship hours that self-directed technology pros expect.

Hiring as we speak in Indianapolis, with daily reviews still underway.

Don't let a delightfully-weird VP of Engineering opening in Indianapolis become the one that got away.
