The Traveler Business Team builds and drives growth for our global consumer businesses—Expedia, Hotels.com, and Vrbo. This division creates compelling and differentiated traveler value for each brand by setting the strategic vision, operating strategy, and plan. Responsibilities include investment allocation and prioritization, P&L accountability, and leading cross‑functional teams across Expedia Group, who are all held accountable to a single scorecard.

Within this division, our Marketing Measurement Analytics team is dedicated to driving data‑informed marketing decisions across Expedia Group's portfolio of brands. We build sophisticated measurement capabilities and experimentation platforms that enable marketers to optimize their strategies and demonstrate clear business impact.

We are seeking a Machine Learning Engineer to work on two key areas within our marketing analytics team. First, you'll enhance our production experimentation platform that runs large‑scale tests, helping marketers design, launch, and evaluate experiments efficiently and reliably.

Second, you'll help build new flexible measurement tools by creating open‑source style add‑ons and turning research prototypes into production‑ready solutions. This includes developing reusable code libraries for quick analysis and designing tools that work alongside our existing platform.

If you're passionate about building scalable ML systems that drive business impact and enjoy turning innovative prototypes into robust production tools, this could be the perfect role for you!

You'll play a key role in maintaining our current experimentation platform while helping to build the next generation of marketing measurement tools.

• Build flexible measurement tools, create reusable code libraries, and transform research prototypes into production‑ready solutions

• Collaborate with data scientists and software engineers to translate requirements and coordinate deployment of tools into production

Required:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or related technical field; or equivalent professional experience

• Proficient in Python, SQL, and PySpark for large‑scale data processing

• Experience building scalable systems, preferably with ML/AI components in production environments

• Experience with automated testing and deployment practices, including version control, unit testing, and deployment pipelines (e.g. GitHub Actions)

• Understanding of system internals, including memory management, caching, and distributed computing

• Experience turning prototypes into production code and building flexible, reusable code frameworks

• Foundational knowledge in machine learning principles and statistical methods

Desirable:

• Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP)

• Familiarity with open‑source development practices and creating modular, adaptable tools
