Team Overview

The Ads ML Platform team builds infrastructure that accelerates high-scale ML systems and tooling for Ads ML, while extending reusable capabilities to broader Reddit ML use cases where appropriate. Our systems help ML engineers move faster across the full development lifecycle: creating features, generating training data, running offline experiments, validating model quality, launching production models, and operating ML systems reliably.

We are looking for a Senior Staff Machine Learning Systems Engineer to lead the technical strategy for the end-to-end Ads ML engineer lifecycle. The initial focus will be on the feature development and training iteration loop: making it faster and easier for ML engineers to build features, generate reliable training data, run experiments, and move from idea to validated model improvement. Over time, this scope will expand into serving and online experimentation workflows, creating a more seamless path from offline iteration to production impact.

This is a senior technical leadership role for someone who can combine deep systems expertise, production ML experience, architectural judgment, and cross-team influence.

What You’ll Do

• Own the technical strategy for the end-to-end Ads ML engineer lifecycle, starting with feature development, training data, offline experimentation, and model iteration workflows.

• Align Ads ML platform priorities with Reddit’s broader ML Platform vision, translating Ads pain points into reusable platform capabilities where appropriate.

• Define architecture and technical standards for ML feature and training-data systems across batch/streaming computation, backfills, lineage, quality, observability, and online/offline consistency.
