Staff Data Scientist, Search Community

About the job

The Community Data Science team is an integral part of the Search Community organization - our mission is to bring fresh, authentic, and relatable content to the Google Search Page by harnessing User Generated Content (UGC) created on third-party social media platforms and Google properties, as well as authoritative publishers content from traditional media. We leverage Google's AI foundation to select, organize, summarize, and ultimately make UGC content more easily consumable on SRP. We bring this content to Search results directly via Community-owned features and indirectly by serving curated UGC content with other teams and SRP features.

Our work encompasses three main areas: product partnership, strategic analysis, and metrics. We work with our Product and Engineering leads to launch innovative features on the Google Search Page that bring authentic and relatable human perspectives to Search results. We seek to understand how our users consume UGC on our surfaces and third-party platforms and how Google can be more useful to our users in a world where so much content is created on social platforms, yet finding what is truly helpful is challenging. We design new metrics critical to guiding our decisions and measuring progress toward our goals.

In Google Search, we're reimagining what it means to search for information – any way and anywhere. To do that, we need to solve complex engineering challenges and expand our infrastructure, while maintaining a universally accessible and useful experience that people around the world rely on. In joining the Search team, you'll have an opportunity to make an impact on billions of people globally.
