Members can play, pause and resume watching as much as they want, anytime, anywhere, and can change their plans at any time.

If you are a metadata and classification expert who is passionate about games, join our Product Metadata and Ratings team to help us build the future of game discovery on Netflix. This role will join a team of classification experts: people who can identify, collect, and transform the artistic qualities of games into the data that powers content organization and personalization for millions of people around the world.

This role will require an understanding of game development and design, user acquisition, consumer insights, and the skill to create great games or engaging digital products. Your work in this role will contribute to innovation in our rapidly evolving Games product and directly impact how our members decide what to play.

You innately understand the facets, tropes, and themes that allow players worldwide to connect, compete, strategize, relax, immerse themselves, and tell their friends, “You have to play this.” You will collaborate with taxonomists, designers, and product leaders to optimize game discovery in a rapidly evolving, deadline- and data-driven environment.
