They help ensure that advertising complies with local regulations, content-rights agreements, and Netflix standards while protecting the member and advertiser experience. Ads Policy Infrastructure is a new team building the shared platform for defining, managing, evaluating, and explaining those policies across the ads lifecycle. Policy is both a safety and monetization capability: precise and consistent decisions protect members and advertisers while allowing eligible demand to reach the right inventory. Our work spans two equally important surfaces: the central policy service and service that evaluates policy at scale, and the authoring experience that enables policy experts to express complex intent safely and clearly. We partner closely with Ads Policy, Product, Design, Creative, Targeting, and engineering teams across campaign planning, ad serving, live events, creative review, and reporting. The Role This is a full-stack growth role on a new team building a new product and platform. You may bring deep expertise from either backend or frontend engineering; we do not expect equal depth across both on day one. We are looking for someone eager to expand across the stack and increasingly own complete product slices-from policy modeling and distributed evaluation to the interface where experts create and understand rules. As an experienced engineer, you will help set technical direction, turn ambiguous business and policy needs into durable systems, and raise the engineering bar through sound judgment, clear communication, and end-to-end ownership. What You'll Do * Shape the architecture and evolution of a shared policy model, management service, APIs, and evaluation platform. * Build intuitive authoring workflows that make complex policy rules understandable and safe to create, review, and change. * Design versioned contracts and integration patterns that allow systems across the ads lifecycle to consume policy decisions consistently. * Develop explainability and observability capabilities, including reason codes, decision traces, and operational metrics. * Lead incremental migrations from localized policy logic to shared platform capabilities while protecting correctness and availability. * Partner with Policy, Product, Design, Operations, and engineering teams to clarify requirements, resolve trade-offs, and deliver end-to-end outcomes. * Mentor teammates and contribute to architecture, engineering practices, and the long-term direction of the team. ## Related Videos - [Developing the Backend with Stefan Lingler, CTO at Shpock](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100360-developing-the-backend-with-stefan-lingler-cto-at-shpock) - [Watch Tests Go Brrrr! : Getting Started with Cypress in ReactJS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/282-watch-tests-go-brrrr-getting-started-with-cypress-in-reactjs) - [Putting the Graph In GraphQL With The Neo4j GraphQL Library](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/257-putting-the-graph-in-graphql-with-the-neo4j-graphql-library) - [DevOps at Netflix](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/270-devops-at-netflix) - [Meet Your New BFF: Backend to Frontend without the Duct Tape](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/682-meet-your-new-bff-backend-to-frontend-without-the-duct-tape) - [GraphQL + Apollo + Next.js: A Lovely Trio](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/311-graphql-apollo-next-js-a-lovely-trio) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [How Much FAANG Companies Actually Pay Software Engineers in 2025](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/230-how-much-faang-companies-actually-pay-software-engineers-in-2025) - [React Developer Salary [2023]](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/198-react-developer-salary-2023) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Dev Digest 119 - ❤️ === ❤️](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/454-dev-digest-119) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline)
