About the job

Google's advertising measurement team focuses on combining data at scale with formal science to make this possible. Our science helps make advertising useful and delightful to our users, and valuable and results-driven for our advertisers and publishers.

As a part of this team, data scientists bring scientific statistical methods to bear on the challenges of advertising product creation, development and improvement with a deep, data-driven appreciation for the behaviors of the end user and the ecosystem. As a Data Scientist working on Ads Insights and Measurement, you will develop, evaluate and improve the entire range of Googles advertising products including Search, Display, Apps, TV and Video (YouTube). You will collaborate closely with a multi-disciplinary team of engineers, analysts and product managers to develop new science and to translate it into deployed products at scale. You will also play a key role in developing new ideas and methods that drive ad measurement and monetization, including paradigm-shifting ad-measurement science and products for the privacy-preserving future of digital advertising. You will be a key part of building and driving impact on large-scale ad-systems both at Google and in the ad-tech and mar-tech industry as a whole, globally.

In this role, individuals with an interest in understanding consumer behavior, advertising and privacy, a passion for business problems, and an interest in combining data and strategy will grow in the environment. You will be able to leverage their training and skills to leverage data and technology to make business decisions.
