Product Design Manager - job at Netflix

Netflix is the leading provider of streaming video, reaching over 200 million subscribers in more than 190 countries and territories around the world. We entertain the world at a massive scale. For example, our subscribers spend five billion hours a quarter watching our shows and account for a third of the downstream Internet traffic. All this global entertainment is powered by a $15+ billion content budget that encompasses an extraordinarily diverse set of shows.

At the heart of the scaled work is the Studio XD team. We’re building a suite of products that help scale the Studio’s operations. From choosing the best stories to produce, taking a title live, to building the world’s deepest catalog of information about films, series, games, and more. As part of the Studio XD design team, you will be designing products that power the future of the studio from pitch to play.

About Netflix

Although Netflix is an established company, in many ways we still act like a startup. The organization is flat, process is minimal, individual responsibility is big, and there is an emphasis on keeping non-productive influences out of the everyday decision process. We endeavor to stay nimble and make decisions quickly.

About the role

As a Product Design Manager for Promo Media, you will lead a team of stunning designers dedicated to innovation in the content promotion space. We showcase our titles to the world with promotional video and artwork that strike a chord with people. Your team will help answer questions like: Can we predict what artwork or video will resonate best with audiences of a film or series? Can we use AI to drive innovative and effective creative direction for content promotion? Can machine learning automate the repetitive parts of artwork and clip creation so creatives can focus on creating change in the content promotion space? You will partner with other design, product, engineering, and key studio business leaders to develop strategies across the product areas owned by the designers on your team.

About the team

We work in one of the most complex areas of the business. We own end to end workflows that power connections and collaborations between industry experts inside and outside the business. Each of us has a broad set of UX skills ranging from product thinking to interaction design, user research to visual communication. We work in close collaboration with Product, Engineering, and Consumer Insights partners to build groundbreaking innovations for the people inside and outside of our Studio that help Netflix choose, produce, and deliver captivating stories for our members around the world.

You are an excellent advocate, evangelist, and listener. You are comfortable directly engaging stakeholders, customers, and users alike.

With every new release, your team leads the charge towards more effective, more impactful services.
