About the job

Youtube Data Science influences and informs YouTube’s product and engineering leadership teams. We have a long history of working on projects that are at the heart of the business and have a seat at the table when it comes to the decisions that drive YouTube's continued success. Our mission statement is improving decisions at YouTube with science.

Shopping is a high-visibility product and a fast-growing area for YouTube, achieving 5x growth in Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) last year. It is also a complex three-sided marketplace that operates by simultaneously serving viewers (shoppers), creators, and merchants (brands).
As a Data Scientist on this team, you will be responsible for building a link between the YouTube Creators who make content and the Brands selling their products. You will build intelligent recommendation and ranking systems that connect creators with the most relevant merchant offers, and vice versa. This is a great opportunity for those who are excited by early stage growth products and building solutions from the ground up.

Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process.
