Job Description

Reddit is a community of communities. It’s built on shared interests, passion, and trust, and is home to the most open and authentic conversations on the internet. Every day, Reddit users submit, vote

Key Highlights

  • Design the Future of Ads Identity: Develop/employ probabilistic models for identity resolution. Design the methodology that links on-platform and off-platform actions to maximize addressability while honoring privacy.
