Algolia was built to help users deliver an intuitive search-as-you-type experience on their websites and mobile apps. We provide a search API used by thousands of customers in more than 100 countries. Billions of search queries are answered every month thanks to the code we push into production every day.
Join the AI Search Group and help us enhance the core keyword search engine capabilities.
The AI Search Group is committed to enhancing the relevance of search results both before (Understanding) and after (Re-Ranking) a query is made.
We, (the team working on the Understanding & Re-Ranking scopes), are seeking individuals with a strong sense of curiosity and a problem-solving mindset—people who thrive on exploring new ideas and tackling challenges head-on. If you are passionate about uncovering insights and finding innovative solutions to enhance the value our customers receive from Algolia through the application of AI or other creative methods, and if you possess the grit to persevere through obstacles, we would love to hear from you!
Our team consists of engineers, most of whom work remotely, and we bring together a variety of skills and backgrounds. Your experience, knowledge, and unique perspective will contribute to this diversity and empower the team to create impactful products.
YOU WILL:
- Iterate on various projects improving the Understanding or Re-Ranking capabilities of the search engine
- Collaborate with a team that includes a variety of roles ranging from Site Reliability Engineer to Machine Learning specialists with a strong focus on Data Engineering
- Investigate & troubleshoot relevance issues whilst having opportunities to suggest & implement solutions
- Participate in the rituals of the team that is operating following Agile principles (Kanban + daily rituals + Retrospectives)

YOU MIGHT BE A FIT IF YOU HAVE:
- Experience in Python
- Experience in building, training & evaluating ML models
- Sensitivity to data driven decision making, and exploring datasets with SQL
- Knowledge of good engineering practices (testing, reviews, code design, …)
- Excellent spoken and written English skills
- A strong sense of ownership, and willingness to make our products better
NICE TO HAVE:
- Experience with Golang
- Experience in building and maintaining API services
- Experience with a cloud provider (GCP, AWS or Azure, …)
We’re looking for someone who can live our values:
- GRIT - Problem-solving and perseverance capability in an ever-changing and growing environment
- TRUST - Willingness to trust our co-workers and to take ownership
- CANDOR - Ability to receive and give constructive feedback.

REMOTE STRATEGY:
Algolia’s flexible workplace model is designed to empower all Algolians to fulfill our mission to power search and discovery with ease.

ABOUT US:
Algolia prides itself on being a pioneer and market leader offering an AI Search solution that empowers 17,000+ businesses to compose customer experiences at internet scale that predict what their users want with blazing fast search and web browse experience.

Algolia is part of a cadre of innovative new companies that are driving the next generation of software development, creating APIs that make developers’ lives easier; solutions that are better than building from scratch and better than having to tweak monolithic SaaS solutions.

Being well capitalized enables Algolia to continue to invest in its market leading platform, to better serve its thousands of customers–including Under Armor, Petsmart, Stripe, Gymshark, and Walgreens, to name just a few.
