CRITEO is looking for a Staff Machine Learning Engineer to join our R&D team in Toronto. Our mission is to power real-time product ranking systems that deliver the most relevant products to users on retailers’ websites as part of our Retail Media solutions (c.f. Retail Media).

To achieve this, we design and operate large-scale machine learning systems built on tabular data to predict user behaviors such as clicks and purchases.

You’ll join a team of Machine Learning Engineers working closely with cross-functional partners across R&D, Product Management, Product Analytics, and Commercial teams to deliver impactful, scalable solutions.

Our core technology stack includes Python, Spark, SQL, and C#.

Your main missions :

• Design, develop, and deploy machine learning models into production

• Analyze data and build scalable, reliable data pipelines

• Define the team’s roadmap and technical strategy

• Own end-to-end initiatives by defining goals, milestones, and technical deliverables in collaboration with Product Managers

• Participate in architecture discussions and help drive technical decisions, actively contributing to the business performance

• You have 10 years of experience building and deploying machine learning systems at scale in production environments

• You are experienced in ranking models for information retrieval or recommender systems

• You enjoy diving deep into data and have a strong analytical mindset

• You are curious, collaborative, and eager to both learn from others and share your expertise with your team

• You value cross-functional collaboration and enjoy partnering with R&D teams, Product Managers, and Product Analysts to build efficient, user-centric products

We acknowledge that many candidates may not meet every single role requirement listed above. If your experience looks a little different from our requirements but you believe that you can still bring value to the role, we’d love to see your application!​
