Machine Learning Engineer – Feed Recommendation
【The Role】
We are looking for a Machine Learning Engineer with strong experience in large-scale recommendation systems to help build the next-generation social media platform.
You will own critical components of our recommendation stack — including recall, ranking, CTR modeling, and multi-objective optimization — with the goal of driving retention, engagement, and long-term ecosystem growth.
【A Day in the Life】
Design and deploy scalable recommendation pipelines
Develop and optimize CTR/CVR prediction models
Improve multi-objective ranking strategies (retention, monetization, diversity, long-term value)
Tackle cold-start challenges for new users and new content
Run offline experiments and online A/B testing to drive measurable gains
Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and monetization teams
Continuously iterate on model performance, latency, and system reliability
【The Impact You’ll Make】
Improve user retention through intelligent content recommendation
Drive measurable lift in engagement and monetization metrics
Build core ranking mechanics beyond incremental model tuning
Shape the foundation of a scalable, long-term content ecosystem
【Who You Are】
3–5 years of experience building production-grade ML systems
Strong hands-on experience in recommendation systems
Experience in one or more:
Recall systems / candidate generation
Ranking models
CTR prediction
Multi-task or multi-objective optimization
Proficient in Python and ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, etc.)
Strong software engineering fundamentals
Experience with large-scale data systems and distributed training is a plus
Experience improving retention or long-term user value is highly valued
【Why Join This Venture】
Build 0-to-1 systems inside a proven AI powerhouse
High ownership and direct business impact
Startup speed with AppLovin-level scale and resources
Opportunity to shape a new growth engine for the company
