The position is for a “Engineering Leader-Gaming Platforms”, who will be responsible for “prototyping, testing and building the Netflix experience for gaming consoles” and “bringing the latest generation of movie discovery and delivery technology to the gaming console platforms our growing subscribers use every day”.

If the use of gaming consoles isn’t enough for you, consider that the successful candidate will “help build a small technology team to rapidly prototype and iterate on a variety of platforms”. A variety of platforms?
