Who We Are
Yieldmo is an advertising platform that helps brands invent creative experiences through tech and AI, using custom ad formats, proprietary attention signals, predictive format selection, and privacy-safe premium inventory curation. We believe all ads should be human-centered, tailored, and provoke emotion and action. Yieldmo helps brands deliver the best ad for every impression opportunity, merging creative and media for proven results.
The Role
We're hiring a Software Engineer / Senior Software Engineer (5–10 years of experience) to help build Yieldmo's AI-powered search engine, which will change how users discover and engage with content across major publishers. This is a full-stack role with a strong ML component. You'll build backend services and ML-powered features, and ship the user-facing interfaces that bring them to life. We care most about builders: engineers who write production code, iterate quickly, make pragmatic tradeoffs, and own their work end to end.
What You'll Do
- Design, build, and operate backend services and APIs that power AI-driven search, including retrieval, ranking, and indexing components.
- Build and deploy ML features into production: embeddings, vector search, RAG pipelines, LLM integrations, and model evaluation.
- Develop responsive, performant front-end experiences that surface search results and AI features to users and internal teams.
- Build and maintain data and content ingestion pipelines that feed the search system.
- Own features end to end, from prototype through production, monitoring, and iteration.
- Partner with Product, ML, and Engineering teams to turn requirements into shipped features.
- Drive quality, performance, and reliability for the services you own, including testing, code reviews, and observability.
- Share knowledge and support teammates; senior engineers will mentor others and contribute to technical design decisions.
Requirements
- Must be based in India.
- 5–10 years of professional software engineering experience, building and operating production systems.
- Strong backend skills in Python, with solid SQL and experience designing APIs and microservices.
- Hands-on front-end experience with a modern framework (React preferred) plus JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML, and CSS.
- Practical ML experience in production: working with embeddings, vector databases, LLMs, RAG, or ranking/recommendation models.
- Experience with Docker, cloud platforms (AWS or GCP), and CI/CD.
