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.
Delivering a substantial share of peak-time Internet traffic requires a close partnership with Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to maintain efficient and cost-effective content distribution. This partnership is facilitated through Open Connect, our purpose-built content delivery network.
The Open Connect Partnerships and Planning team collaborates closely with our global network of ISP and infrastructure partners to design and build efficient, effective, scalable, and resilient interconnection and network deployment strategies that enable the delivery of a high-quality Netflix streaming experience. This new role on the Open Connect Partner Enablement team will work cross-functionally to enable high-quality and consistent messaging and themes across all of our internal, public, and partner-facing collateral.
