Machine Learning Generative AI Advertising systems Ranking Recommendation

Summary

What you’ll impact

Our company is seeking Machine Learning Engineers focused on Ads to build and scale AI-powered advertising systems. The role involves developing models, infrastructure, and feedback loops that improve ad creative quality, relevance, and performance, while collaborating across product, research, engineering, and go-to-market teams.

Responsibilities

What you'll do

  • Build and improve ML systems powering advertising products, including ranking, recommendation, targeting, prediction, and optimization.
  • Develop models that improve ad creative quality, relevance, personalization, and performance at scale.
  • Build systems that connect generative models with real-world advertising performance signals, creating feedback loops that continuously improve model outputs.
  • Apply prompt engineering and post-training techniques to improve generative models for advertising and creative use cases.
  • Work on fine-tuning, preference optimization, evaluation, and other techniques for adapting foundation models to specific creative and advertising objectives.
  • Design and run experiments across creative generation, ranking, targeting, and delivery to understand what drives advertiser performance.
  • Build production ML systems that operate reliably at significant scale, from experimentation through inference and serving.
  • Work closely with Product, Research, Engineering, and GTM teams to turn advances in generative AI into products advertisers can use.

Requirements

What you’ll bring

  • Deep experience building machine learning systems for advertising.
  • Strong understanding of ads systems, including areas such as ranking, recommendation, targeting, bidding, conversion prediction, creative optimization, or measurement.
  • Hands-on experience with LLMs, multimodal models, or generative AI systems.
  • Strong experience with prompt engineering and model evaluation.
  • Experience with post-training, including techniques such as supervised fine-tuning, preference optimization, reinforcement learning, or related approaches.
  • Strong software engineering fundamentals and experience shipping production ML systems.
  • Ability to operate across research and engineering: you can experiment quickly, identify what works, and turn it into a scalable production system.
  • High agency.
  • Working English.
