ABOUT XD

Netflix Experience Design (XD) is a multidisciplinary team of designers, content strategists, motion and audio designers, design engineers, and program managers-unified around a single mission: Entertaining The World. We partner closely with Product, Engineering, Consumer Insights, Data Science, and User Research to create experiences that make members happy and measurably move the business forward. We're a lean, matrixed organization that pushes the Netflix experience beyond expectation. We operate on a foundation of farming for dissent, content not control, and informed captains-prioritizing collaboration and principled decision-making over hierarchy.

ABOUT MEMBER XD

This leader will be responsible for leading the core member experience worldwide and creating personalized entertainment experiences that help members discover and connect with the content they love. We do this by defining the app architecture and foundational user experience strategic frameworks, ensuring excellence and platform innovation across TV, Mobile, and Web experiences, prioritizing personalized content discovery, leveraging human-centered AI, and ensuring each member's experience on Netflix reflects what they truly value.

ABOUT YOU

You'll lead a lean remote design organization of seasoned designers, while partnering closely with cross-functional leaders across the business. We are looking for a senior executive who prides themselves on being able to strategically execute, is not motivated by title but inspired by impact, and is skilled at inspiring senior, high-caliber talent to do their best work.

You'll drive creative strategies that challenge the status quo and push user experience forward through emerging technologies-often in spaces where design hasn't yet established a foothold or set the rules. Comfort with ambiguity and uncharted territory is essential. We're looking for someone who can operate effectively in a highly matrixed organization, build and strengthen horizontal cross-functional partnerships, and influence the creative thinking that keeps Netflix at the forefront of global entertainment.
