I would like a copy of this slide: And say "Influence every playback": With focus of power of our filters. Our team has the power to turn off certain streams, certain videos, for certain devices - which helps mitigate any client errors and prevents bad Netflix experience

We could potentially add a slide about the insights our team generates and the value it provides for so many client teams and metadata teams.
What will you do?● Develop enhancements to the playback
experience● Enable better scaling of server logic &
state● Automatically detect what’s not working
and why

I am also happy with the fact that we have the ability to impact and enable so many teams within netflix (again thinking from what i would like to hear in a job position).
Suudhan Rangarajan
I am very happy with our team's ability to push features to production and impact customers so quickly. This used to be a frustration in a lot of previous teams - and it gives immense satisfaction. We could potentially pitch the "Velocity" aspect here

these seem like the externally visible technology stacks. Should we highlight the numerous Netflix wide technologies we use and interface with?
Philip Fisher-Ogden
What were you thinking for those - like including NetflixOSS (logo) or specific OSS projects?
Suudhan Rangarajan
yeah, like mantis, atlas, spinnaker, hystrix, evcache etc - it felt like we are underselling the stack here - we do so much integration and exposure to such a wide variety of tools enhances one's view of how things are done in a great company (a valuable opportunity if you join our team types)
