At Netflix, our mission is to entertain the world. Together, we are writing the next episode - pushing the boundaries of storytelling, global fandom and making the unimaginable a reality. We are a dream team obsessed with the uncomfortable excitement of discovering what happens when you merge creativity, intuition and cutting-edge technology. Come be a part of what’s next.
The Team
Netflix's ability to invest in the content that entertains hundreds of millions of members - billions of dollars each year across film, series, games, and live experiences - depends on getting subscription pricing right and having a clear view of where the business is headed.
The Subscription Revenue DSE team brings measurement and modeling to both challenges. We are a small, focused group of data practitioners who work across pricing research and business forecasting. This role will focus on the forecasting work, where we partner with Finance & Strategy, Content, and Revenue Analytics teams to build the models that project Netflix's subscriber growth, engagement, and revenue across global markets over multi-year horizons. Our forecasts serve as a foundation for long-range planning across the company.
The Role
You will work closely with senior researchers and the team's existing data science foundation to improve the models that forecast Netflix's subscription trajectory and the expected impact of pricing decisions.
The core challenge: subscription markets are noisy, global, and deeply interconnected. Understanding how the business will develop - and how pricing actions will shift that trajectory - across geographies, plan tiers, and time horizons requires strong models and honest judgment about what the data can and can't tell you.
What You Will Do
- Build and productionize forecasting models that capture the overall trajectory of Netflix's subscription business alongside the expected impact of pricing actions on member base, ARPU, and revenue across global markets
- Build on the team's existing scenario modeling and simulation tools to quantify how pricing actions and broader market dynamics are expected to affect subscription metrics - giving decision-makers a way to stress-test assumptions before a pricing move happens
- Contribute to and advance the team's forecasting pipeline - model development, backtesting, deployment, and monitoring - and lift the accuracy and reliability of existing forecasts
- Partner with Finance & Strategy and Product leadership to translate forecast outputs - including their uncertainty - into concrete business recommendations
About You
- Solid grasp of subscription business dynamics - how acquisition, ARPU, and churn interact, and how pricing decisions move these metrics
- Strong expertise across forecasting methods - such as time series, and regression-based approaches - and the trade-offs between accuracy, interpretability, and stability
- Comfortable building production forecasting systems: backtesting, monitoring, catching drift, and retraining when the data changes
- You incorporate macro and external signals (economic conditions, FX dynamics, competitive moves) into your models alongside internal data
- Proficient in Python and SQL, with hands-on experience with ML and statistical libraries (e.g., statsmodels, PyTorch)
- Advanced degree (MS or PhD) in statistics, economics, computer science, or a related quantitative field, or equivalent applied experience
