Senior HRBP, Data & Insights

At Netflix, our mission is to entertain the world. Together, we are writing the next episode - pushing the boundaries of storytelling, global fandom and making the unimaginable a reality. We are a dream team obsessed with the uncomfortable excitement of discovering what happens when you merge creativity, intuition and cutting-edge technology. Come be a part of what’s next.

Join our team as a Senior HRBP for Data & Insights. Our HRBPs are the frontline consultants to people managers and individual contributors, providing guidance, insights, coaching, and advice to support talent management practices within the team (onboarding, performance management, development, team health, culture).  A key area of focus for the HRBP is to increase manager capability, enabling them to be more self-sufficient, driving manager education on important people programs, tools, and processes. HRBPs collaborate with their peers to ensure a collective Talent strategy that encompasses the major areas in which the org can grow and scale, while strongly reflecting the Netflix culture and optimizing organizational health.

Data and Insights is the organization responsible for turning data into strategic understanding across the business - stakeholders sit across the entire company. It is a group of 600+ researchers, data engineers, machine learning scientists, data science professionals and amazing storytellers. Its work generally spans across content & audience analytics, product & personalization, business & financial insights, data infrastructure & tooling, and AI innovation.

• Partner closely with Inclusion and other Talent experts to integrate inclusive practices into everyday management and talent decisions

Execution Excellence & One Talent Team
