Our Tech Stack: * Languages: Python, Go, C++ * ML Frameworks: TensorFlow, PyTorch, JAX * Infrastructure: Google Cloud Platform, AWS, Kubernetes, Spark, BigQuery, BigTable How You Work: * Your ethos is ownership * You thrive in ambiguity and enjoy partnering with others to shape vague requirements into clear roadmaps with pragmatic tradeoffs. * You take shared accountability for the end-to-end journey; communicating progress, surfacing risks early, and following through to ensure your work creates measurable value. You demonstrate strong judgment under uncertainty. * You prioritize based on long-term impact, over short-term noise, making deliberate decisions when information is incomplete. * You explicitly weigh tradeoffs like speed vs. quality and remain agile enough to adjust your approach thoughtfully as new information/data emerges. You lead through clarity and active listening. * You reduce ambiguity for the team by asking the right questions upfront, tailor your communication to your audience, document your decisions, and bring helpful structure to complex discussions. * You provide thoughtful, evidence-based feedback when needed and align behind decisions once they are made. You collaborate early, instead of solving in isolation. * You build trust across the organization by listening first and navigate conflicting needs with empathy, creating buy-in around priorities and scope. * You navigate technical tensions productively, disagreeing thoughtfully while maintaining momentum and strengthening professional relationships. You fall in love with the problem, not the solution * You build for the long run, looking beyond immediate tasks to understand root causes, second-order effects, and the long-term health of our ML ecosystem. * When something breaks, you don't just patch it; you seek structural improvements that prevent recurrence and elevate the technical bar for the entire organization. You prioritize customer impact and take action to make it real. * You prioritize effective solutions that drive business impact over technical elegance, spotting opportunities that others might overlook. * You have the initiative to turn ideas into outcomes and the agency to identify and fix gaps, even when they aren't yet on the formal roadmap. ## Description As a Machine Learning Engineer at Moloco, you will design, train, and deploy the large-scale models that power our programmatic advertising and commerce media products. You will work at the heart of our real-time bidding and pricing systems, helping shape an end-to-end ML ecosystem that processes billions of daily events. Your work will directly improve marketplace performance for global advertisers and publishers by optimizing for relevance, ROI, and user experience at a scale few companies can match. The Opportunity * Architect and iterate on high-performance models that improve ad relevance, click-through rates, and conversion performance. * Productionize and maintain scalable ML pipelines - from data ingestion to online inference - on top of planet-scale infrastructure. * Extract insights from massive datasets of user behavior and auction signals to define new features and refine modeling strategies. * Translate business goals (revenue, ROI, engagement) into concrete modeling challenges and success metrics in collaboration with Product and Data Science. * Validate innovation through rigorous experimentation, including A/B tests, offline evaluations, and counterfactual analyses. * Balance marketplace health by implementing models that harmonize advertiser value with a high-quality user experience. * Enhance system reliability by refining feature stores, monitoring data quality, and establishing robust debugging practices. * Drive platform evolution, contributing to ML tools and guidelines that increase experimentation velocity and deployment speed. * Optimize for performance, partnering with Infra teams to reduce latency and improve throughput for low-cost, high-scale decisioning. * Elevate technical excellence by sharing best practices in modeling and production ML with the broader engineering team. Expertise We Value: MLEs at Moloco are hands-on builders of some of the world's highest-scale ML workloads. They bridge technical innovation with global revenue outcomes, owning the critical systems that define our next generation of machine learning and optimization platforms., * Production ML at Scale: 5-12+ years of experience delivering ML solutions in high-stakes production environments (e.g., Ads, Recommenders, Search, or Marketplaces), with a track record of scaling models for massive throughput and low-latency requirements., * Lead with Humility: Everyone's voice is respected, valued, and heard. With humility, we become more open and accessible to each other. We win, lose, and learn together. Accountability and feedback are essential to our success. * Uncapped Growth Mindset: We see all situations as opportunities to learn, grow, and improve as individuals and as an organization. We seek diverse perspectives, encourage curiosity, and promote experimentation to push the boundaries of what's possible. * Create Real Value: We pursue the most impactful opportunities with rigor and integrity. We take intelligent risks and make disciplined trade-offs to maintain deep focus. We help our customers win by delivering durable value. * Go Further Together: We're one team working towards one mission and vision. We collaborate proactively and inclusively, involving the right people at the right time and in the right way. We strive to create a more equitable workplace. We won't let each other fail.
