Principal Machine Learning Engineer, Search

The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity.

Company Description

Opportunity is not evenly distributed. Shopify puts independence within reach for anyone with a dream to start a business. We propel entrepreneurs and enterprises to scale the heights of their potential. Since 2006, we’ve grown to 10,000 employees and generated over $496 billion in sales for millions of merchants in 175 countries.

This is life-defining work that directly impacts people’s lives as much as it transforms your own. This is putting the power of the few in the hands of the many, is a future with more voices rather than fewer, and is creating more choices instead of an elite option.

  • Analyze user behavior and search patterns to refine search algorithms and enhance search performance.
  • Optimize the search system to efficiently handle and process large-scale data sets for fast and accurate search results.
  • Monitor search performance metrics and user feedback to continuously improve search functionality and user experience.
Qualifications
