Data Science and Engineering

Data Science and Engineering at Netflix is aimed at improving various aspects of our business. Research applications span many areas including our personalization algorithms, content valuation, and streaming optimization. To maximize the impact of our research, we do not centralize research into a separate organization. Instead, we have many teams that pursue research in collaboration with business teams, engineering teams, and other researchers. This allows for close partnerships between researchers and the business or engineering teams in each area. In addition, research that applies to the same methodological area or business area is shared and highlighted in discussion and debate forums to strengthen the work and its impact.
