Editorial analysts will be required to “watch, research, rate, tag, annotate and write analysis” on deadline for the streaming service, and must be able to “distill the essence of a movie/show and share findings in a concise manner.”

“We are seeking an entertainment-savvy analyst to help categorize television series, specials, and movies for our 100+ million users,” Netflix stated.

“The ideal candidate has a deep knowledge, 5+ years experience, and education in the film and/or television industry, can write efficiently with attention to detail, is comfortable using a variety of publishing tools, and is thoughtful in the delivery of information while working on a diverse team,” Netflix’s notice stated.

Netflix added that proficiency in a second language beyond English is mandatory.

Netflix is planning to release 700 original shows over the course of 2018.
