Description :
We are looking for an experienced Machine Learning Scientist III to join the Advertising Optimization & Automation Science team.
In this role, you will be responsible for the development of budget, tROAS and SKU recommendations and other machine learning capabilities supporting our ads business.
You will work closely with other scientists, as well as members of our internal Product and Engineering teams, to apply your engineering and machine learning skills to solve some of our most impactful and intellectually challenging problems to directly impact Wayfairs revenue.
What Youll Do :
- Provide technical leadership in the development of an automated and intelligent advertising system by advancing the state-of-the-art in machine learning techniques to support recommendations for Ads campaigns and other optimizations.
- Design, build, deploy and refine extensible, reusable, large-scale, and real-world platforms that optimize our ads experience.
- Work cross-functionally with commercial stakeholders to understand business problems or opportunities and develop appropriately scoped machine learning solutions.
- Collaborate closely with various engineering, infrastructure, and machine learning platform teams to ensure adoption of best-practices in how we build and deploy scalable machine learning services.
- Identify new opportunities and insights from the data (where can the models be improved? What is the projected ROI of a proposed modification?).
- Research new developments in advertising, sort and recommendations research and open-source packages, and incorporate them into our internal packages and systems.
