Explore over 170M documents from a global community. Share information, and find inspiration on Scribd.About the team The Applied Research - Personalization team’s goal is to comprehensively understand our users, create representations of their behavior and complex interactions with our content, and deliver user models that drive ML product features. This is accomplished as a team of aligned, talented and collaborative data scientists.
About you You are excited by the opportunities and challenges of working on Scribd’s unique and massive dataset consisting of interactions of hundreds of millions of pieces of content with hundreds of millions of users. You enjoy representing our users in models and measure your contribution in terms of user impact.
You will - Deeply understand our data and define how user interactions create signals for ML models.- Take full advantage of our scale of data. For example, use Transformers and other state-of-the-art deep learning architectures to extract rich user embeddings.- Optimize personalization for new users by integrating other sources of data and innovating on models. For example, use Bayesian methods to smoothly combine priors about user segments with data-rich modeling approaches.- Increase the effectiveness of the team on a technical and problem-solving level through thoughtful collaboration with other Data Scientists, Machine Learning Engineers, and System Engineers.
You Have - 2+ years of experience in data science or related field.- Bachelor's degree in a quantitative discipline. Master’s or Doctorate degree preferred.- Interested or experience with personalization features, user modeling- Intermediate level or greater experience with Python. - Experience with SQL and Spark is a plus.- Exposure to TensorFlow and embedding-based deep learning architectures is a plus.Benefits, Perks, and Wellbeing at Scribd
