About the role
- About The Opportunity This is a hands-on technical leadership role, not a management role.
- You will be accountable for how those pieces fit together, not only for any single model.
- We expect you to challenge technical decisions across teams when the engineering case is clear, and to bring evidence when you do.
Responsibilities
- Partner with Product, Search Engineering, Ads, and Data Platform to shape roadmaps, surface risk early, and make sure the data and infrastructure exist before the model needs them.
- Translate technical trade-offs into business terms for product and executive stakeholders, and document the rationale clearly enough that decisions outlive the people who made them.
Requirements
- Lead the evolution of our optimization objective from short-term conversion toward long-term diner value, including the offline evaluation and online experimentation work required to trust the result before it ships.
- Experience with Large Language Models and transformer-based architectures, including fine-tuning, embedding generation, and deploying them in latency-sensitive applications.
- Experience with language understanding over imperfect grammar (real-world search queries, menu and catalog text) is a strong plus
- Experience with cloud ML infrastructure (AWS/SageMaker or equivalent), model deployment, and production monitoring and observability
