About Data Engineering:

Data Engineering at Netflix is a role that requires building systems to process data efficiently and modelling the data to power analytics. These solutions can range from batch data pipelines that bring business metrics to life to real-time processing services that integrate with our core product features. In addition, we require our Data Engineers to have a rich understanding of large distributed systems on which our data solutions rely. Candidates should have knowledge across several of these skill sets and usually need to be deep in at least one. As a Data Engineer, you also need to have strong communication skills since you will need to collaborate with business, engineering, and data science teams to enable a culture of learning.
