We’re building a more open world. Join us.


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

Experience and qualifications:

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 Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Are you considering a career change into machine learning in your 30s, 40s or 50s? You’re not alone. In the UK, organisations across industries such as finance, healthcare, retail, government & technology are investing in machine learning to improve decisions, automate processes & unlock new insights. But with all the hype, it can be hard to tell which roles are real job opportunities and which are just buzzwords. This article gives you a practical, UK-focused reality check: which machine learning roles truly exist, what skills employers really hire for, how long retraining realistically takes, how to position your experience and whether age matters in your favour or not. Whether you come from analytics, engineering, operations, research, compliance or business strategy, there is a credible route into machine learning if you approach it strategically.

How to Write a Machine Learning Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Machine learning now sits at the heart of many UK organisations, powering everything from recommendation engines and fraud detection to forecasting, automation and decision support. As adoption grows, so does demand for skilled machine learning professionals. Yet many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Machine learning job adverts often generate high volumes of applications, but few applicants have the blend of modelling skill, engineering awareness and real-world experience the role actually requires. Meanwhile, strong machine learning engineers and scientists quietly avoid adverts that feel vague, inflated or confused. In most cases, the issue is not the talent market — it is the job advert itself. Machine learning professionals are analytical, technically rigorous and highly selective. A poorly written job ad signals unclear expectations and low ML maturity. A well-written one signals credibility, focus and a serious approach to applied machine learning. This guide explains how to write a machine learning job ad that attracts the right people, improves applicant quality and strengthens your employer brand.

Maths for Machine Learning Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

Machine learning job adverts in the UK love vague phrases like “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals”. That can make the whole field feel gatekept especially if you are a career changer or a student who has not touched maths since A level. Here is the practical truth. For most roles on MachineLearningJobs.co.uk such as Machine Learning Engineer, Applied Scientist, Data Scientist, NLP Engineer, Computer Vision Engineer or MLOps Engineer with modelling responsibilities the maths you actually use is concentrated in four areas: Linear algebra essentials (vectors, matrices, projections, PCA intuition) Probability & statistics (uncertainty, metrics, sampling, base rates) Calculus essentials (derivatives, chain rule, gradients, backprop intuition) Basic optimisation (loss functions, gradient descent, regularisation, tuning) If you can do those four things well you can build models, debug training, evaluate properly, explain trade-offs & sound credible in interviews. This guide gives you a clear scope plus a six-week learning plan, portfolio projects & resources so you can learn with momentum rather than drowning in theory.
