Design and evolve real-time bid optimization systems that translate advertiser goals into optimal auction bids.
Build intelligent budget pacing algorithms that distribute spend across time and auction opportunities.
Develop analytical frameworks connecting bidding, pacing, and budgeting into a coherent optimization objective.
Shape auction mechanics including reserve pricing, multi-slot allocation, and bid-to-price mapping.
Own the full research-to-production loop: diagnose system behavior, formulate hypotheses, design experiments, ship code, and measure impact.

Requirements

MS or PhD in operations research, applied mathematics, control systems, computational economics, or a related quantitative field.
8+ years of experience building and deploying optimization or control systems in production environments.
Strong foundation in feedback control theory, convex and stochastic optimization, auction theory and mechanism design, dynamic programming.
Proficiency in Go, Java, C++, and Python for production systems.
