About the opportunity

We are looking for aData Scientist to join a team of applied research.

The AI department currently consists of 50 people who are a mix of data scientists, machine learning and backend engineers.
The department provides technologies that power outcomes of campaigns with a total yearly turn over of $1.7B.
Runs large scale prediction and control systems for ad delivery, dealing with millions of live ads, doing more than a billion predictions per second based on large on-line trained models being updated every 5 minutes.

What will you do?

As aData Scientist, your mission will be to:

Innovate at Scale: Stay at the forefront of AdTech research, focusing on CTR prediction, online learning regimes, and high-dimensional embeddings.

Bridge Research & Engineering: Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify research gaps and translate them into production-ready features.

Own the Lifecycle: Lead the end-to-end process—from reading the latest ArXiv papers to A/B testing and monitoring model performance in a live environment.

Experiment Freely: Dedicate time to "deep-work" sessions, testing unconventional hypotheses and new algorithmic approaches.

What will you bring to the team?

The Foundation: An advanced degree (MSc/PhD) in a quantitative field or equivalent "in-the-trenches" industry experience.

The Toolkit: 4–5 years of experience in applied research, specifically deploying ML algorithms into high-throughput online environments.

The Hybrid Edge: Strong software engineering fundamentals; you don’t just design models, you understand how they fit into the code stack.

Critical Thinking: The ability to dismantle a scientific paper, critique its methodology, and implement its core findings effectively.

Communication: A knack for making the complex simple. You can explain a transformer-based ranking system to a peer or a product manager with equal clarity.

We care about you

Career Development: Continuous investment in our employees’ skills: in-house and external training, internal mobility …
