Are you intrigued by data? Yelp has hundreds of millions of pieces of user-contributed content, millions of users and business listings, and hundreds of thousands of advertising customers – and all of these numbers are constantly growing. Making sense of this data, deducing relationships between variables, and figuring out different interactions is hard work, but these insights are hugely impactful to Yelp’s business.
The Trust & Safety team at Yelp focuses on surfacing high-quality content that reflects authentic experiences generated by real Yelpers who are engaged with the community. We invest heavily in ML models and infrastructure to detect and understand content spam on our platform.
As an engineer on our team, you’d be helping our users, every day, to make trustworthy connections with great local businesses, by deciding where to eat, which mover to call, or best places to visit in a new city. Yelp’s mission of connecting people with great local businesses requires the use of cutting-edge Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to scale across a vast and diverse base of users and businesses spanning various geographical locations. As an ML engineer, you will have the opportunity to foster these connections across millions of users and business listings using cutting-edge industry tools such as neural networks (NNs), large language models (LLMs), and traditional ML methods like XGBoost or linear models.
