Day to Day

At Indeed, our mission is to help people get jobs. Every search and homepage visit runs a real-time auction that ranks sponsored and organic jobs for millions of jobseekers. A common ranking utility decides that order across Indeed and its partner surfaces.

As a Senior Machine Learning Engineer on the Utility team in Marketplace Efficiency, you will build the models and tools behind that utility. You will work on dynamic filters that adapt to each request and on models for Multi-Armed Bandit or Utility algorithms. You will build scalable, high-performance components that rank millions of jobs for millions of jobseekers in real time. You will also build and maintain request-level simulation tooling. This tooling lets scientists replay production traffic and test ranking, utility, and filter changes offline before a live experiment.

On a daily basis, you will explore data to define problem statements, build and tune models and algorithms, and write production code. You will scale model, algorithms and filter improvements to production, run A/B experiments to measure their impact, and monitor performance. You will do science research and run experiments that help optimize the outcomes for Employers, Job Seekers and Marketplace. You will collaborate with engineers, scientists, and product managers, and stay current with advances in the field.
