Watch Netflix movies & TV shows online or stream right to your smart TV, game console, PC, Mac, mobile, tablet and more.Applied Machine Learning Research at Netflix improves various aspects of our business, including personalization algorithms, search, systems optimization, content valuation, tooling for artists, and streaming video optimization. As such, our research spans many Machine Learning areas, including recommender systems, causal inference, reinforcement learning, computer vision, computer graphics, image and video processing, natural language processing, optimization, operations research and systems. Great applied research also requires great Machine Learning infrastructure, another large area of emphasis at Netflix.
In Fall 2024, Netflix will be hosting a cohort of of Machine Learning Research interns within a specific set of areas listed below.
We are looking for individuals with the following qualifications:
Must have:
- Currently enrolled PhD or MS student in the Machine Learning space, or PhD graduate seeking postdoctoral research.
- Experience with at least one of the following ML areas:
- Personalization & Recommender Systems: using transformers for recommenders, multi-modal recommenders, conversational recommenders
- Natural Language Processing (NLP): Large Language Models (LLMs), fine-tuning, in-context learning, text generation and embedding
- Computer Vision (CV): Image and video processing and generation
- Reinforcement Learning (RL): Preference-based learning, reinforcement learning from human feedback
- Multimodal Data: Handling and integrating text, image, video, and other data
- Model Optimization and Efficiency: Inference efficiency, model benchmarking, optimization techniques.
- Experience programming in at least one programming language (e.g. Python or C/C++).Experience developing ML models using common frameworks (e.g. PyTorch, TensorFlow, Keras) and training on GPUs
- Curious, self-motivated, and excited about solving open-ended challenges at Netflix.
- Great communication skills, both oral and written.
Nice to have:
- Publications in relevant topics in top conferences or journals.
- Comfortable with distributed computing environments such as Spark or Presto.
- Comfortable with software engineering best practices (e.g. version control, testing, code review, etc.)
For your application to be considered complete:
- You will be sent an Airtable form shortly after you submit your application on our careers site (1-5 business days); your application will not be considered complete until you fill out and submit this form.
- Include a Resume or CV with complete contact information (email, phone, mailing address) and a list of relevant coursework and publications (if applicable).
- In the Airtable form, you will be asked to select exactly one ML area for your potential internship. This will be used to map your application to particular teams & projects.
- You will be asked to include a short (max one page) statement describing your research experiences and interests, and (optionally) their relevance to Netflix Research. For inspiration, have a look at the Netflix research site.
At Netflix, we offer a personalized experience for interns, and our aim is to offer an experience that mimics what it is like to actually work here. We match qualified interns with projects and groups based on interests and skill sets, and fully embed interns within those groups for the summer. Netflix is a unique place to work and we live by our values, so it's worth learning more about our culture.
Internships are paid and are a typically a duration of 12 weeks, with a choice of a few fixed start dates in September or October to accommodate varying program calendars. Conditions permitting, the internship will be located in our Los Gatos, CA office, or in our Los Angeles, CA office, depending on the team.
