Netflix | Los Gatos, CA | Full-Time | On-Site Our team sits in the middle of the action at Netflix. Imagine what would happen if we performed a region evacuation and a bunch of services weren’t scaled properly - we’d have a big outage on our hands very quickly. Changing the steering for 130+ million customers within 7 minutes and without missing a beat is no easy task, but it is just one aspect of what we think about. Steering and scaling are powerful tools to influence the availability and latency of Netflix during normal operations as well. Additionally, our team is responsible for capacity and reservation management for Netflix's AWS footprint, and we are starting to engage in fleet-wide efficiency efforts.
