What you’ll do:

Set our vision, strategy, and roadmap for re-engaging and improving how hundreds of millions of Pinners get content recommendations each month by leveraging Pinterest’s existing recommendation systems as well as innovative new technologies
Support your team in understanding user pain points and define a prioritized roadmap to execute on your plans
Work cross-functionally with machine learning engineers, data science, legal, and operations to support relevance improvements for underserved users
Partner with the rest of our Pinner experience and relevance teams to extend our core value prop in engaging content loops for Pinners

Ability to articulate complex technical concepts to non-technical audiences in written and verbal communication
Inquisitiveness to learn new domains and systematically work through ambiguity and competing concerns with your team
Ability to manage and prioritize within a portfolio of projects that build on each other to create a coherent system
A strong growth mindset and ability to listen to and action upon feedback
Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field such as Computer Science, or equivalent experience

We let the type of work you do guide the collaboration style. That means we're not always working in an office, but we continue to gather for key moments of collaboration and connection.

This position is not eligible for relocation assistance.
