Senior

Backend engineer for the web apps that run Netflix's partner device lifecycle

Netflix's Client and Partner Technologies org needs a senior backend engineer for its Enablement Apps team, which builds the B2B web applications that let Smart TV and streaming-device partners integrate, launch, operate, update, and retire Netflix experiences — plus tools powering Partner Payment workflows and UI surfaces like the Discovery Row. This Warsaw-based role is primarily JVM backend work (Java/Scala/Kotlin preferred) with real legacy-system and microservices tradeoffs, and React/GraphQL as a bonus.
