About the job
At Netflix, our mission is to entertain the world. Together, we are writing the next episode - pushing the boundaries of storytelling, global fandom and making the unimaginable a reality. We are a dream team obsessed with the uncomfortable excitement of discovering what happens when you merge creativity, intuition and cutting-edge technology. Come be a part of what’s next.
The Notifications Personalization team owns the algorithmic targeting, ranking, and pacing of notifications to Netflix members. We build the ML systems that decide which messages to send, to whom, when, how often, and via which channel. The team partners closely with the broader ML organization (ML Platform, Recommendations, Foundation Models) and the broader messaging ecosystem (Messaging Engineering, Product, CRM, Live, Games).
The team is organized into three areas
- Candidate Generation: Scaling the message catalog via creator tooling integrations and GenAI message creation
- Send Decision Optimization: Improving targeting decisions across the notification system
- Emerging Applications: Expanding message personalization into new business areas and member states including Podcasts, FTAB, and Commerce applications.
