About the role
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. The Screenings team owns end-to-end execution of physical and virtual screenings, and this role acts as the technical and vendor-management expert ensuring every screening meets Netflix's quality bar across APAC. The Screening Specialist runs in-market screenings in India, manages vendor and cross-functional relationships with Publicity, Events, Post Production and Awards, and handles technical execution such as DCP/KDM ingest and onsite technical support.
What you will do
- Own end-to-end execution of physical and virtual screenings, including DCP/KDM ingest, subtitle and audio configuration, and onsite or remote technical support.
- Run the standard technical checklist: venue tech checks before screening day, content re-checks with PSCs before doors open, and standby coverage through the end of the screening, covering AV equipment, projector calibration, audio levels, framing, and safety hazards.
- Manage day-to-day vendor relationships across the team's 19-vendor active roster spanning DCP creation, QC, tech check/on-site execution, engineering/buildout, and virtual-screening platforms.
- Keep Glowbot (the team's project-tracking system) current and support ongoing efforts to automate manual admin work.
- Partner cross-functionally with Publicity, Events, Post Production, and Awards on timing, asset readiness, and market-specific requirements (e.g. classification, versioning).
- Build and manage vendor relationships across APAC, ensuring reliance on vendors; while helping diversify and strengthen the local vendor bench in each country.
- Serve as the primary screening project point of contact, navigating language, quality, delivery and stakeholder complexity independently.

What the employer is looking for
- Strong project and time management, including composure under reactive, short-notice timelines.
- Comfortable operating independently in-market; will often be the only Screenings presence in India day to day.
- Cross-functional collaboration skills: this role sits at the intersection of Publicity, Events, and Post Production and needs to build trust with all three.
- Stakeholder & Reputation Management: SME support for cross-functional enquiries; filmmaker/executive alignment on sensitive quality conversations.
- High attention to detail and an excellence bar suited to premiere-level, talent-facing events.
- Vendor Relationship Management: setting and enforcing service-level expectations with vendors and engineering contractors.

- Willing to travel.
Preferred qualifications

- On-Site Execution: technical producing, day-of-event communication management, on-site vendor accountability.
- Ability to read and enforce precise digital cinema equipment calibration standards.
- Business acumen and a "quality gatekeeper" mindset, treating technical execution as a strategic contribution to campaign and awards outcomes, not just delivery.
- Experience building or managing vendor relationships from scratch in a market, especially valuable given India's current vendor concentration risk.
- Familiarity with festival or awards-season logistics.
- Regional Operations: proven ability to manage multi-country logistics independently and adapt to local venue/market conditions.
