Members can play, pause, and resume watching as much as they want, anytime, anywhere, and can change their plans at any time. We are constantly innovating to grow our member base and revenue. Algorithms and machine learning power critical systems that enable this growth: from the messages we send to the back-end of our payments infrastructure. 

We are looking for a product manager to innovate on the next generation of commerce algorithms for Netflix.
