Google's leadership team hand-picks thorny business challenges, and members of BizOps work in small teams to find solutions. As part of this team you fully immerse yourself in data collection, draw insight from analysis, and then zoom out to develop compelling, synthesized recommendations. Taking strategy one step further, you also persuasively communicate your recommendations to senior-level executives, roll-up your sleeves to help drive implementation and check back-in to see the impact of your recommendations.
As a part of the GCS Data Science team, you will be working on challenging yet interesting problems for Google's Global Business Organization (GBO). Your goal is to build efficient and scalable ML models that help small and midsize businesses around the world grow their business, leveraging the power of Google solutions.
In this role, you will be passionate about solving problems with the latest research in applied deep learning, causal inference and measurement theory. We work with product teams to understand their objectives, business requirements and constraints, and key metrics. We propose, build, evaluate and debug machine learning models and algorithms; we integrate our pipelines, models and predictions into production serving systems.
