Machine Learning Engineer II, Marketing Testing
Introduction to team

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.


About The Role

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.


In This Role, You Will

  • Support software engineering teams to maintain platform performance, troubleshoot issues, and enhance logging systems to ensure reliable operation for 300+ annual experiments
  • Optimize core testing code including stratified sampling, simulation and regression frameworks
  • Build scalable data pipelines for experiment execution and analysis
  • 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
  • Knowledge of A/B testing methodologies, stratified sampling, and experimental design principles

Machine Learning Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the machine learning jobs market in the UK is going through another big shift. Foundation models and generative AI are everywhere, companies are under pressure to show real ROI from AI, and cloud costs are being scrutinised like never before. Some organisations are slowing hiring or merging teams. Others are doubling down on machine learning, MLOps and AI platform engineering to stay competitive. The end result? Fewer fluffy “AI” roles, more focused machine learning roles with clear ownership and expectations. Whether you are a machine learning job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter trying to build ML teams, understanding the key machine learning hiring trends for 2026 will help you stay ahead.

Machine Learning Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK machine learning hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise shipped ML/LLM features, robust evaluation, observability, safety/governance, cost control and measurable business impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for ML engineers, applied scientists, LLM application engineers, ML platform/MLOps engineers and AI product managers. Who this is for: ML engineers, applied ML/LLM engineers, LLM/retrieval engineers, ML platform/MLOps/SRE, data scientists transitioning to production ML, AI product managers & tech‑lead candidates targeting roles in the UK.

Why Machine Learning Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Machine learning (ML) has moved from research labs into mainstream UK businesses. From healthcare diagnostics to fraud detection, autonomous vehicles to recommendation engines, ML underpins critical services and consumer experiences. But the skillset required of today’s machine learning professionals is no longer purely technical. Employers increasingly seek multidisciplinary expertise: not only coding, algorithms & statistics, but also knowledge of law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. This article explores why UK machine learning careers are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these fields intersect with ML roles, and what both job-seekers & employers need to understand to succeed in a rapidly changing landscape.
