We are the computational advertising team in the AI & Research organization at Microsoft. We are looking for candidates with research and applied experience in machine learning related areas. Search advertising is a $100 billion market worldwide. Microsoft's Bing search engine supports over 30% of desktop search in the US, with similarly significant presence in many other countries.

We are a team of applied scientists working on machine learning components in the whole sponsored search stack. Our team works on problems related to machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, image understanding, optimization, information retrieval, among others. Our work entails building large-scale machine learning systems for user response modelling, ranking, and a number of other ML-driven business problems. The Principal Applied Scientist will design, implement, analyze, tune complex algorithms and ML systems and the supporting infrastructure for operating on large datasets. They will collaborate with top machine learning scientists and engineers in delivering direct business impact. We're looking for sound understanding and insight into productionizing machine learning models in large-scale systems, an ability to pick up new technical areas, as well as a commitment to developing, delivering, and supporting algorithms in production
