Software Engineering 5 - Ads Agent (Agentic Platform for Enterprise)

Netflix is an entertainment company focused on pushing the boundaries of storytelling, global fandom, and cutting-edge technology. The Software Engineering 5 - Ads Agent role builds core agent platforms, frameworks, and shared services for the Ads organization, including agent orchestration, tool registries, memory and retrieval infrastructure, APIs, SDKs, evaluation tooling, and reliability guardrails.

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
