About Pinterest:
Millions of people across the world come to Pinterest to find new ideas every day. It’s where they get inspiration, dream about new possibilities and plan for what matters most. Our mission is to help those people find their inspiration and create a life they love. In your role, you’ll be challenged to take on work that upholds this mission and pushes Pinterest forward. You’ll grow as a person and leader in your field, all the while helping Pinners make their lives better in the positive corner of the internet.
Creating a life you love also means finding a career that celebrates the unique perspectives and experiences that you bring. As you read through the expectations of the position, consider how your skills and experiences may complement the responsibilities of the role. We encourage you to think through your relevant and transferable skills from prior experiences.
Our new progressive work model is called PinFlex, a term that’s uniquely Pinterest to describe our flexible approach to living and working. Visit our PinFlex landing page to learn more.
We are looking for a Staff Machine Learning Engineer with tech lead experience to join our Search Traffic team. This high impact team is specifically focused on building SEO products and a logged out platform for Pinterest's Growth. One third of Pinterest MAUs visit via search traffic at least once in a given month. SEO also accounts for half of all new sign ups, making it the largest acquisition and visitation channel outside of direct visits. Our Acquisition org is one of Pinterest's biggest growth levers, and we need someone to come in and influence the company's user growth strategy.
Working closely with product managers, designers, and backend engineers, you will play an important role in enabling the newest technologies and experiences. We are now using GenAI to enhance the content we are able to surface in search engines, moving beyond clunky templates such as “37 best chicken recipe ideas for you” towards something that is more compelling to a user. You’ll have the opportunity to operate autonomously and find creative solutions to thought-provoking problems. Even better, because we covet the kind of courageous thinking that’s required in order for big bets and smart risks to pay off, you’ll be invited to create and drive new initiatives, seeing them from inception through to technical design, implementation, and release.

Pinterest is a social media platform that allows users to discover and save ideas for various interests, hobbies, and projects. It has since become a popular visual search engine and bookmarking tool. Users can create boards, which are like virtual pinboards, to organize and save their ideas and inspirations. They can also browse other users' boards and pins to find new ideas, and follow other users with similar interests.
