Technical Training Program Manager Intern, Developer Education (Summer 2024)

Netflix is the world's leading streaming entertainment service with 240+ million paid memberships in over 190 countries enjoying TV series, documentaries and feature films across a wide variety of genres and languages. Netflix is reinventing entertainment from end to end. We are revolutionizing how shows and movies are produced, pushing technological boundaries to efficiently deliver streaming video at massive scale over the internet, and continuously improving and personalizing how content is presented around the globe. 

Throughout our business, Netflix employs a simple but powerful approach to product innovation and decision-making: we ask our members, through experiments (online or quasi), which of several possible experiences resonate with them. To support experimentation at scale, we continuously invest in our democratized experimentation platform that supports contributions of metrics and inference methods from users of all backgrounds, and permits experimenters to use these building blocks to develop flexible and powerful workflows. Through our search for new talent, such as yourself these goals align with the skillsets we source. We are always looking to improve our decision-making capabilities by exploring, developing, and implementing new approaches to the design and analysis of randomized experiments, and by leveraging approaches from observational causal inference.
