At Netflix, our mission is to entertain the world. Together, we are writing the next episode - pushing the boundaries of storytelling, global fandom and making the unimaginable a reality. We are a dream team obsessed with the uncomfortable excitement of discovering what happens when you merge creativity, intuition and cutting-edge technology. Come be a part of what’s next.
The Opportunity
The industry is flooded with speculative GenAI roadmaps, but few are battle‑tested in production. This role turns internal and external GenAI experimentation into repeatable, production-ready guidance for the US & Canada (UCAN) slate as we deepen engagement with internal and external content production partners.
The Production Technology & Media Operations team (PT&O) aims to partner directly with filmmakers, showrunners, post and VFX executives, and vendors already using (or want to use) GenAI in UCAN productions. This hands-on technical expert will consult with productions on feasibility and value, similar to current Technology Managers in PT&O, separating signal from noise and mapping tools into real-world workflows. The goal is to identify where GenAI measurably improves quality, efficiency, or speed—and where it doesn’t—by grounding the tech in real creative and operational constraints.
The Manager, Generative Workflows bridges cutting-edge generative AI and on-the-ground production practice. You will:
- Partner with filmmakers, production partners/vendors, and creative teams to demonstrate GenAI’s potential in storytelling, anchored in Netflix’s GenAI strategy.
- Translate production needs into practical guidance and learnings for UCAN productions.
- Help PT&O and Product/Legal/Content Operations convert field insights into policies, playbooks, and scaled education.
Key Responsibilities
Discovery & scoping
- Identify schedule, complexity, and iteration challenges across the UCAN slate where GenAI could help (e.g., previs, look dev, matte painting, temp VO/SFX, editorial assists, pitch/boards, comps), and build AI vs. traditional assessments (quality, schedule, risk, approvals) to recommend the best path.
Prototyping & delivery
- Design rapid prototypes and case studies using tools like Runway, Veo 3, Luma, ElevenLabs, Stable Diffusion/Flux/ComfyUI, Unreal Engine, Nuke, Maya, Resolve, and Adobe; turn learnings into self-serve pathways; consult on AI-generated image/video/audio/3D assets; and define best practices for hybrid workflows.
Creative partnership & workflow optimization
- Work with directors, showrunners, designers, editors, VFX supervisors, and vendors to align AI use to the creative vision (or guide to traditional methods), translating creative direction into prompts, tuning strategies, and pipeline steps. Map minimum viable AI workflows into pre-, production-, and post- pipelines, including data and technical specs (formats, metadata, color management, interchange).
Education, vendors, and governance
- Create show-ready demos, playbooks, and before/after breakdowns; run targeted upskilling; build relationships with UCAN GenAI vendors and talent and help define evaluation frameworks; interpret and apply Netflix policies on copyright, IP, guild/union rules, and data security; and clearly communicate positions on model/data sources, licensing, and watermarking.
Feedback to Netflix product & innovation teams
- Aggregate field insights into recommendations for Production Solutions, Production, Product/Engineering, Legal/Policy, and Creative Innovation (e.g., quarterly readouts), and help prioritize internal tool investments vs. third-party partnerships based on real production impact.
Qualifications
Requirements
- 15+ years in film/series/VFX production with hands-on creative supervision or pipeline experience through major innovation cycles (nascent to scaled).
- Demonstrated, hands-on use of AI-based image/video tools in production or high-stakes prototyping.
- Proficiency with:
- VFX/Graphics/3D: Nuke, Maya, Unreal Engine; familiarity with color pipelines/OCIO.
- Generative AI: Midjourney, Runway, Veo 3, Stable Diffusion/Flux, ComfyUI (and prompt/tuning best practices).
- Editorial/Finishing: Adobe Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro.
- Strong grasp of end-to-end production and post (development and previs through VFX turnover, conform/online, delivery).
- Excellent communication and storytelling skills; able to translate complex technical concepts for creatives and executives.
- Portfolio showcasing GenAI-integrated workflows, breakdowns, and before/after results.
- An earnest and inclusive team player who will be a great steward of the Netflix culture.
Preferred
- Degree in design, film, computer graphics, HCI, or related field (or equivalent experience).
- Experience designing and managing AI-enabled pipelines on real productions.
- Knowledge of ACES/OCIO color pipelines.
- Familiarity with the GenAI talent and vendor ecosystem across UCAN.
- Demonstrated interest in creative ideation and visual storytelling; comfort facilitating collaborative workshops.
Pragmatics
- Los Angeles based role
- Some travel within UCAN for on-set tests, vendor visits, and production/post reviews. Hybrid collaboration with PT&O, Production, Post, VFX, Creative Innovation, Industry Relations & Partnerships, and Product/Engineering.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Workflow Automation Specialist
Frame your degree for specialty occupation
Your Australian bachelor's degree in IT, engineering, or information systems directly supports the specialty occupation requirement. If your degree is in a tangentially related field, prepare a credential evaluation that maps your coursework to automation systems design or business process management.
Target employers with DOL LCA filing history
Search DOL's Office of Foreign Labor Certification disclosure data to identify companies that have filed LCAs for workflow or automation roles. Employers with existing LCA experience move faster and rarely push back on the process when they already know what it involves.
Distinguish automation tools in your application materials
Employers evaluating E-3 candidates for this role want to see platform-specific experience. Explicitly name the tools you work with, such as Power Automate, Zapier, UiPath, or ServiceNow, so hiring managers can verify the specialty occupation connection between your degree and your job duties.
Request LCA filing before accepting a verbal offer
The LCA must be certified by the DOL before your visa application can proceed. Ask the employer to initiate the LCA as soon as you reach verbal agreement on terms. Waiting until a formal offer letter is signed can add two to three weeks to your start timeline.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for end-to-end support
Once your employer agrees to sponsor you, use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA submission, DS-160 preparation, and consulate documentation. This keeps the process off your employer's plate and reduces the risk of paperwork errors delaying your appointment.
Clarify remote work arrangements in your LCA early
If your role is hybrid or fully remote, the LCA must list the correct worksite location. Mismatches between the LCA worksite and your actual work location are a common compliance issue flagged during DOL audits, so confirm the address with your employer before the LCA is submitted.

Find Workflow Automation Specialist JobsWorkflow Automation Specialist E-3 Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I find Workflow Automation Specialist jobs with E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals searching for U.S. roles with E-3 sponsorship. You can filter by job title and sponsorship status to find employers actively hiring for workflow and automation roles. General job boards don't filter by visa type, so you end up cold-contacting companies who may not have sponsored before.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a Workflow Automation Specialist role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes, provided the role requires a bachelor's degree or higher in a directly related field such as computer science, information systems, or engineering. The key is that the job duties, not just the job title, must reflect a theoretical and practical application of that degree. Roles focused on configuring low-code tools without a degree requirement can be harder to support under the specialty occupation standard.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Workflow Automation Specialist roles?
The E-3 has no annual lottery, no cap, and can be applied for at any time of year, while the H-1B is capped at 85,000 annually and requires winning a randomised lottery. For Australians in automation roles, the E-3 is a direct path that doesn't require waiting for a lottery cycle or relying on an employer to register you in March. The E-3 also renews indefinitely in two-year increments.
Can I switch to a different automation-focused employer after getting my E-3?
Yes, but your E-3 status is tied to your sponsoring employer. If you change jobs, your new employer must file a new LCA and you'll need to either apply for a new E-3 visa at a consulate or, if you're already in the U.S., ensure the transition is handled carefully to maintain valid status. You don't need to leave the country to start the new employer's LCA process.
