Build the UI and tooling layer that accelerates model development across Netflix's AI Platform

Netflix's Model Development and Management team builds the interface layer of the AI Platform — the tooling that lets ML researchers, engineers, and data scientists move faster through model creation, evaluation, experimentation, and deployment. This is a platform/developer-tools engineering role, not a modeling role: you're building SDKs and internal tooling for other builders, working alongside applied scientists across many Netflix teams.

What this interview tests

  • Platform/developer-tooling design (SDKs, internal frameworks) for a technical user base
  • ML lifecycle end-to-end: data/features → training → experiment tracking → deployment
  • Distributed systems and large-scale ML services design
  • Cross-functional collaboration with applied researchers and data scientists
  • User-empathy-driven requirements gathering from an internal ML community

Common question themes

Design an internal tool/SDK for ML experiment tracking or model deployment

How would you gather and prioritize requirements from ML researchers vs data scientists

Describe a distributed system or ML service you built — what broke at scale and how you fixed it

Python plus Scala/Java/C++ coding round on data structures / system design

Experience (if any) with agentic systems, LLMs, or open-source ML infra contributions
