Revenue & Growth Tooling Platform

1 post · Mar 2021

What this trail covers

Netflix is evolving its Revenue & Growth Tools (RGT) team's capabilities by developing a comprehensive platform for building full-stack tools that support financial operations. This includes creating configuration management systems like Haze, which uses GraphQL and JSON to orchestrate backend API calls for managing configuration data, and self-service workflow tools like RunScript, which allows engineers to create secure UIs for operational users to execute common workflows using Kotlin or Java. The vision is to provide building blocks for automation, federate domain APIs via GraphQL, and act as a 'Local Central Team' to bridge platform and product teams.
