At Netflix, our mission is to entertain the world. We have well over 200 million members in 190 countries, and we continue to grow around the world. The EMEA region forms a large and crucial part of our current member base and a source of future membership growth. We strive to deeply understand the entertainment needs and behaviors of users in this diverse set of markets ranging from Western and Eastern Europe to the Middle East and Africa. 
The Data Science and Engineering (DSE) organization at Netflix aims to use data, analytics, and sciences to better understand and improve our business, and arm decision makers with the right information at the right times. We are looking for a seasoned data scientist to join our Regional Product & Partnerships team covering EMEA. With Regional Product, we aim to deliver locally customized and relevant experiences to both non-members and members. Our Partnerships (Business Development and Partner Engagement) teams work with a range of partner companies spanning cable, telecom, CE manufacturers, TV makers, streaming devices, and app platforms. Our partners not just allow consumers to enjoy Netflix on a wide variety of devices, but also lend us their brand names and marketing budgets.
In this role, you will partner closely with our stakeholders from product management, partner engagement, business development, strategy, consumer insights, marketing, and many other teams to drive data-informed decisions. You will lead the analytics and experimentation & causal inference work in your areas focused on EMEA but also collaborate with scientists and analysts in other regions to form globally relevant and scalable perspectives and solutions. While technical depth is an important requirement, your success in this role will be equally dependent on your ability to communicate and collaborate with a diverse group of stakeholders and teams. 

What will you do

  • Be a strategic partner and work with business stakeholders to define high impact analytical problems and find innovative ways to solve these problems with data
  • Partner closely with leadership on our Regional Product and Partnerships teams in EMEA to deliver insights and decision recommendations through experimentation and analysis

  • Actively collaborate with your peers in other regions including those in California to spot pan-regional patterns, deliver global learnings to your region, help prioritize global roadmaps with regional inputs, etc.
  • Travel to the US will be required roughly 3-4 times a year. Additional travel within the EMEA region will also be required as needed to attend specific meetings/events

Who you are

  • You have strong statistical skills utilized in A/B testing, analyzing observational data, and modeling
  • You have an advanced degree in Statistics, Econometrics, Mathematics, Physics, or a related quantitative field
  • You are comfortable working with large data sets and analyzing complex data with SQL and other tools such as Python or R
  • You have a strong bias to action, delivering results quickly with iteration instead of waiting for perfection
