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

How Many Machine Learning Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Machine Learning Job?

Machine learning is one of the most exciting and rapidly growing areas of tech. But for job seekers it can also feel like a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms. One job advert wants TensorFlow and Keras. Another mentions PyTorch, scikit-learn and Spark. A third lists Mlflow, Docker, Kubernetes and more. With so many names out there, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking you must learn everything just to be competitive. Here’s the honest truth most machine learning hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool. They hire you because you can solve real problems with the tools you know. Tools are important — no doubt — but context, judgement and outcomes matter far more. So how many machine learning tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the real number is far smaller than you think — and more logically grouped. This guide breaks down exactly what employers expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to structure your learning for real career results.
