At Yelp, we’re on a mission to drive the local economy by connecting users to great businesses. The Ad Market Performance team provides data, analytics, and metrics that enable us to better understand the performance of our advertising products and the quality of the connections we’re creating. We track interactions with the product and aggregate & transform large streams of data as those connections take place. We serve data that supports and informs key product decisions, including understanding the revenue impact of projects, training critical machine learning models, and defining sources of truth for our financial data pipelines.

As an Engineering Manager, you’ll lead the team responsible for the design and implementation of our ad infrastructure, ensuring that millions of complex interactions are efficiently processed every day, and helping us meet high expectations for our system availability and performance. You will empower engineers and decision-makers throughout the organization by identifying and prioritizing investment in our data products.
