Data Scientist – Ad Intelligence

The Role

As a Data Scientist on our Ad Intelligence team, you’ll build the models and algorithms that estimate how advertisers spend money and reach audiences across the web.

This role demands a genuine understanding of the business logic behind our numbers, combined with the technical range to solve problems at any scale: sometimes the right answer is a carefully tuned heuristic shipped in a day, sometimes it’s a full ML pipeline that takes weeks to get right. Whichever approach is the right one, you will own the algorithm end-to-end.

What You’ll Do

• Build a deep understanding of the business logic behind our metrics, and encode it into model assumptions, features, and validation rules.
• Design, build, and sometimes productionize models that estimate ad intelligence metrics.
• Apply modern ML techniques where they earn their complexity; and use simpler heuristics where they don’t.
• Own tasks end-to-end: from exploration and proof of concept through a full research cycle including careful model selection and evaluation. In some cases you will also create the production implementation in collaboration with engineers.
• Closely collaborate with data analysts to uncover and solve data quality issues.
• D
