Senior Staff ML Engineer, Search & Recommendation
The Search Recommendations & Relevance team at Reddit is building the next generation of search - one that goes beyond “10 blue links” to deliver real answers, perspectives and conversation from the world's largest corpus of human conversation. We power both Reddit Search and our AI-native Search experience, redefining how users discover and interact with information.
Redditors produce the most amazing content about every niche topic in the world – this underleveraged data coupled with modern advances in AI systems is presenting a unique opportunity to quickly build a new kind of search engine. As a Senior Staff, you will design and build a large-scale system that powers end-to-end search relevance at scale. You’ll work across multiple areas of the stack, including query understanding, retrieval, ranking, features, measurement, LLM-based answers, RAG etc, partnering deeply with product, org leads, and other XFN to deliver reliable, high quality systems that can help Reddit Search scale to billions of users.
