[Hiring] Integration Engineer @Netflix

Role Description

We’re looking for an Integration Engineer who can own the Talent (HR) integrations ecosystem end-to-end. The person will own how Workday and our Talent platforms connect – architecture, reliability, observability, and vendor delivery. You’ll lead design and implementation, and decide how the whole system should work and keep raising the bar.

What You’ll Own

• Integration architecture & ecosystem
  • Own the end‑to‑end integration architecture between Workday and our Talent ecosystem (Comp, Recruiting, Enterprise etc.).
  • Define and enforce patterns and standards: when we use Workday-native tools vs. middleware, custom platforms, how we handle errors, how we design data contracts, how we secure and version interfaces.
  • Actively modernize the landscape: reduce fragile point-to-points, simplify flows, and remove legacy cruft.
• Design & implementation
  • Lead the design and implementation of integrations.
  • Own the full lifecycle: requirements → design → build → test → deploy → iterate.
  • Write and review transformation logic (XSLT, MVEL, etc.) and supporting code.
• Observability & reliability
  • Treat observability as part of the spec: metrics, logs, traces, and alerts are designed up front.
  • Define and monitor SLIs/SLOs for key integrations (latency, error rates, data freshness, etc.).
  • Lead incident response and postmortems for integration failures; drive structural fixes.
• Vendor and partner delivery
  • Be the technical lead with vendors: challenge designs, reject weak patterns, and insist on solutions that fit our architecture and standards.
  • Hold vendors accountable for quality, performance, and operability.
  • Work directly with HR, Finance, and other partners to translate business flows into integration designs.
• Documentation & knowledge sharing
  • Maintain clear, current documentation: data contracts, mappings, runbooks, and architecture overviews.
  • Raise the integration literacy of the team: coach engineers and partners on how our ecosystem works and how to use it well.

Qualifications

• You’re a systems owner with strong technical skills and opinionated about design and patterns.
• Deep, hands-on experience building and running Workday integrations in production, including:
  • Studio, EIB, Web Services; ideally also Extend and Prism.
• Strong experience with at least one middleware platform.
• Solid understanding of REST/SOAP APIs, XML, XSLT, JSON, and authentication (OAuth, SAML, etc.).
• Proficiency in at least one general-purpose language (Java, Python, or JavaScript) and comfort digging into code when needed.
• Proven track record of owning complex integrations or data flows end-to-end – you can point to systems that work because you designed and led them, not because you followed someone else’s spec.
• Strong grasp of HR/Talent business processes and HRIS data workflows (recruiting, offers, onboarding, comp, performance).
• You design for operability and scale: you’ve put real observability and resilience into production systems.

Requirements

• Generally, our compensation structure consists solely of an annual salary; we do not have bonuses.
• You choose each year how much of your compensation you want in salary versus stock options.
• The range for this role is $270,000.00 - $410,000.00. This compensation range will vary based on location.

Benefits

• Comprehensive Health Plans.
• Mental Health support.
• 401(k) Retirement Plan with employer match.
• Stock Option Program.
• Disability Programs.
• Health Savings and Flexible Spending Accounts.
• Family-forming benefits.
• Life and Serious Injury Benefits.
• Paid leave of absence programs.
• Full-time hourly employees accrue 35 days annually for paid time off to be used for vacation, holidays, and sick paid time off.
• Full-time salaried employees are immediately entitled to flexible time off.
