Sr DEV Lead, Bing Search Relevance
Location: China, Beijing/Suzhou

Want to work on a fast-cycle, high visibility, hardcore search team with ambitious goals? Internet search is one of the highest impact and most technically challenging projects in the computer industry. Our mission is to delight customers by delivering the most relevant results in a way that helps them find what they are looking for, fast. We work on technology and products that are critical to our company’s success and at the heart of the customer experience of the internet. STCA core relevance team is looking for experienced and productive Senior SDE Leads. The goal of the relevance team is to provide users with the most relevant information and applications to allow them to perform their task in the minimum amount of time. Relevance team is an exciting area that poses many research and engineering challenges. The team is responsible for developing feature extraction, sorting and ranking algorithms that find and return the best available results for queries performed on Bing. Understanding the user intent from a few possibly ambiguous words is extremely hard and we are developing various techniques to be able to capture the user intent accurately. Our team is responsible for developing ideas for understanding and extracting relevant information on web documents. We are heavily metrics driven for assessing user satisfaction as well as various aspects of results relevance such as query intent understanding, diversity, freshness, authority, and relevance to user location and user experience. We perform a range of experiments, from formally designed tests using public or private data sets to examination of individual cases and example searches. We are an extremely agile team and we move very fast from ideas to experimentation, development and deployment through continuous releases throughout the year. We work in close collaboration with Microsoft Research and academia. If you did dream for applying results of latest research to commercial search engine then this position is for you.


Roles and Responsibilities:

As a Senior SDE Lead of the relevance team, you will lead a team of talented and highly motivated engineers and applied researchers, to focus on solving some of the tough problems in entity management, core ranking, contextual relevance, social, or whole page relevance, to make big impact and contributions to the whole ranking stack. In collaboration with our colleagues in STC, US, and researchers at MSR, we explore and invent cutting edge methods in statistics, information retrieval, data mining, machine learning and distributed systems to solve hard problems. You will have enormous resources at your disposal; high-performance distributed systems with vast amounts (peta-bytes) of raw and processed data from our query logs/index and the tools to work with this data. At the same time you will be working with low-level systems code to maximize our relevance while keeping user latencies at a minimum. What makes this position unique is required combination of hard core development skills and understanding of data analysis techniques like machine learning, informational retrieval, speech/statistical natural language processing, or data mining. Strong practical and theoretical knowledge of machine learning techniques, information retrieval or data mining is a big plus.
Required skills/qualifications:

5+ years of software product experience including multiple years in data mining/analysis, machine learning, information retrieval, or computational linguistics.
Proven track record of leading people and projects.
Exceptional problem solving and analytical skills, and a history of coming up with novel and elegant ideas and executing on them.
Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
Master’s degree in Computer Science or related fields required; PhD is a strong plus
