Planning and production of the titles

Netflix is revolutionizing the way a modern studio operates. Our mission in Studio Engineering is to build a unified digital studio that powers our global production of amazing content. We combine our entertainment knowledge and our technical expertise to provide innovative technical solutions from the initial pitch of an idea to the moment our members hit play for a given title. We are building software and systems to solve a wide gamut of problems, ranging from designing the optimal content catalog, to operations management for productions, to generating accurate financial forecasts. These enterprise tools are used by our business partners in Netflix Studios and by thousands of people across hundreds of productions. Essentially we help our studio manage its global content budget in an optimal way.

Our tools and products use state-of-the-art cloud technologies and software techniques. Our engineering team is composed of people from various backgrounds. We leverage the best practices for building high-scale systems that we have refined for our streaming product. We are also pioneering new techniques in data and entity management, since our studio workflows require up-to-date information on vendors, talent, users, budgets, productions, contracts, media assets, etc. Workflows are built on top of these entities and are utilized across different business units and departments such as financial planning and accounting, legal, marketing, content strategy, production planning, and post-production.

The output of all of the above is digital content that gives voice to storytellers from all over the world, and that gives joy to viewers from all over the world.
