Netflix is one of the world's leading entertainment services, with over 300 million paid memberships in over 190 countries enjoying TV series, films and games across a wide variety of genres and languages. Members can play, pause and resume watching as much as they want, anytime, anywhere, and can change their plans at any time.

The Team
The Policy Strategy Partners (PSP) team sits within Netflix’s Global Affairs team, as a global, central function of deep policy specialists, who provide substantive advice and strategic guidance on our policy priorities and markets. We work closely with our regional policy leads and cross-functional partners in legal, content, comms, finance, and product to drive alignment, shape global strategies, and ensure those strategies are locally resonant, accounting for cultural, legal, and regulatory nuances.

The Opportunity
We are looking for a Manager, Artificial Intelligence Policy to join the Content and Studio Public Policy team within PSP.

The Content and Studio Public Policy Team drives policy strategies to support the growth, flexibility, and sustainability of our content business. Anchored in the goal of supporting production and innovation to deliver compelling, locally relevant storytelling, we advocate for production incentives, infrastructure, and skills development, and flexible regulatory frameworks that enable member-driven content strategies, defend artistic freedom, protect our ability to embrace tools such as GenAI, promote contractual flexibility, and champion strong content protection tools.
