About the role

  • Own the intelligence behind our Ads agents.

  • Ingest and enrich unstructured Ads content and publish retrieval‑ready datasets using our managed search/vector services.
  • Design and evaluate retrieval workflows (RAG) with existing services for hybrid search and re‑ranking; set quality/latency targets and iterate via experiments.
  • Design agent reasoning and policies on ads, including tool definitions and human‑in‑the‑loop approvals.
  • Establish evaluation suites covering precision/recall, calibration, hallucination rate, latency, and cost.
  • Run A/B or uplift experiments to quantify impact and guide iteration.
  • Translate Ads problems into agent behaviors and own KPIs such as ROAS lift, pacing accuracy, RCA precision/recall, forecast MAPE, and time‑to‑insight.
