Netflix is looking for a Director of Generative AI for its gaming division, offering a significant salary as the industry faces widespread layoffs.

Less than a year after laying off employees at Oxenfree studio Night School, Netflix is offering a significant salary for a new role focused on generative AI in gaming. The company is on the lookout for a visionary individual to lead its generative AI strategy aimed at enhancing gaming experiences.

Job Listing Overview

Netflix’s job listing states:

“We’re seeking a visionary and pragmatic Head of Gen AI to lead the strategy and application of Gen AI across our games organization.”

Despite these advancements, Netflix’s gaming endeavors have faced challenges, such as previously launched in-house studios that struggled to deliver projects. This new role signals Netflix’s intent to push forward in the gaming domain using AI technology.
