Your Role at impact.com:

We're seeking a Senior Data Scientist to serve as an embedded Data Scientist within our Programmatic Experience Group. You'll own the design and deployment of machine learning models that optimize yield, pricing, and inventory allocation at scale — sitting at the intersection of data science, platform engineering, and marketplace economics.

This is a high-craft, high-ownership individual contributor role. You'll work end-to-end: architecting the data pipelines that feed your models, engineering the features that drive performance, and deploying real-time inference systems that make decisions at speed. Your work directly determines how effectively Impact's programmatic marketplace balances advertiser performance with publisher monetization — making this one of the highest-leverage technical roles in the business.

You'll collaborate closely with Product, Data Science, and Programmatic Delivery Engine Engineering, but you operate with significant autonomy. You're expected to bring both the modeling rigor of a data scientist and the production instincts of an ML engineer — and to be genuinely excited about both.

What You'll Do:

Yield Optimization & Pricing Models

• Design and deploy ML models that optimize auction pricing, bid shading, floor price setting, and yield across Impact's programmatic inventory.
• Build and iterate on real-time pricing algorithms that balance short-term revenue efficiency with long-term publisher and advertiser health.
• Develop and maintain feedback loops that allow pricing models to adapt to shifting market conditions, inventory mix, and demand patterns.
• Quantify the revenue impact of pricing model improvements; communicate tradeoffs between yield maximization, fill rate, and partner ROI to stakeholders.

Inventory Allocation & Supply Optimization

• Own ML-driven inventory allocation logic: routing, pacing, and matching supply to demand across partner segments, deal types, and campaign objectives.
• Build models that forecast inventory availability, demand curves, and clearing prices to support proactive allocation decisions.
• Identify and address inefficiencies in inventory utilization — including unsold inventory, suboptimal deal matching, and allocation imbalances across the publisher base.

Data Architecture & Feature Engineering

• Design and own the data infrastructure that feeds programmatic models: event pipelines, feature stores, training datasets, and real-time feature serving.
• Engineer high-signal features from auction logs, bid stream data, user signals, contextual attributes, and historical performance — at the scale of programmatic data volumes.
• Build robust data pipelines with production-grade standards: reliability, observability, versioning, and efficient reprocessing.

Real-Time Inference & Production ML

• Deploy models to production real-time inference environments; own latency, reliability, and throughput requirements for auction-time decision-making.
• Build monitoring systems that track model performance, data drift, and system health in production; define alerting thresholds and retraining triggers.
• Partner with MLOps and Platform Engineering to ensure scalable, low-latency serving infrastructure meets SLOs under high-volume auction traffic.
• Own the full model lifecycle: training, evaluation, deployment, A/B testing, and iteration.

Experimentation & Performance Measurement

• Design and execute rigorous A/B and holdout experiments to measure the causal impact of model changes on yield, fill rate, advertiser performance, and publisher revenue.
• Build evaluation frameworks that go beyond offline metrics — validating model behavior in live auction environments where feedback signals are delayed or noisy.
• Translate experimental results into clear business narratives; present findings and recommendations to Product and business stakeholders.

Self-Learning Systems & Feedback Loops

• Research and implement adaptive, self-learning components within the programmatic stack — including contextual bandits, reinforcement learning signals, and online learning approaches where appropriate.
• Design feedback mechanisms that close the loop between auction outcomes, model updates, and system behavior; reduce reliance on manual tuning and rule-based overrides.
• Stay current with advances in programmatic ML, auction theory, and online optimization; evaluate applicability to Impact's specific marketplace dynamics.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Serve as the primary ML technical partner for the Rubicon product and engineering teams; translate business requirements into modeling approaches and communicate technical tradeoffs clearly.
• Collaborate with Data Science peers on shared infrastructure, modeling standards, and cross-domain feature reuse.
• Document models, architectures, and experimental findings to a standard that enables review, replication, and knowledge transfer across teams.

What You Bring:

Required

• Experience: 5+ years in data science, ML engineering, or quantitative research, with at least 2+ years building and deploying ML models in programmatic advertising, ad tech, marketplace optimization, or a closely related domain (e.g., real-time bidding, dynamic pricing, auction systems).
• Programmatic & marketplace depth: Demonstrated understanding of programmatic auction mechanics (RTB, header bidding, floor pricing, deal types, bid shading) and how ML can be applied to optimize outcomes across the supply-demand stack.
• Production ML engineering: Proven ability to take models from prototype to production independently — including real-time inference, monitoring, retraining pipelines, and SLO ownership.
• Data architecture: Experience designing and building data pipelines, feature stores, and training infrastructure for high-volume, low-latency ML systems.
• Technical skills:
• Strong Python and SQL; proficiency with ML libraries (scikit-learn, XGBoost, LightGBM, PyTorch/TensorFlow) and large-scale data tools (Spark, Kafka, or equivalent streaming/batch frameworks).
• Experience with real-time feature serving and low-latency model deployment (REST APIs, gRPC, or streaming inference).
• Familiarity with production ML workflows: model versioning, drift monitoring, A/B testing, evaluation, and retraining.
• Experience processing and modeling at programmatic data scale: high-cardinality auction logs, bid stream data, impression and click events.
• Experimentation rigor: Strong grasp of causal inference and experiment design in online, delayed-feedback environments (auction holdouts, switchback tests, variance reduction techniques).
• Communication: Ability to explain complex modeling decisions and tradeoffs to Product and business stakeholders; comfortable presenting in cross-functional forums.
• Education: Bachelor's in a quantitative field (CS, Statistics, Math, Engineering, Economics, or similar); Master's/PhD preferred.

Preferred / Nice to Have

• Direct experience with SSP, DSP, or exchange-side yield optimization — particularly floor price optimization, bid landscape modeling, or deal matching algorithms.
• Familiarity with auction theory (first-price vs. second-price dynamics, optimal reserve pricing, revenue equivalence) and its practical implications for programmatic ML.
• Experience with contextual bandits, multi-armed bandits, or reinforcement learning applied to real-time decisioning problems.
• Knowledge of online learning and adaptive algorithms in production environments with non-stationary data distributions.
• Familiarity with privacy-preserving ML techniques relevant to programmatic (differential privacy, federated learning, cookieless attribution modeling).
• Experience with GCP tools (BigQuery, Vertex AI, Dataflow, Pub/Sub) and/or Databricks/Spark for large-scale event processing and model training.
• Exposure to supply forecasting, inventory management, or capacity planning in programmatic or marketplace contexts.
• Familiarity with Impact's affiliate and partnership ecosystem, or prior experience at the intersection of performance marketing and programmatic delivery.

What Sets You Apart

• Marketplace intuition. You understand programmatic auctions not just as an engineer but as an economist — you think about incentive structures, equilibrium dynamics, and how model decisions ripple through the supply-demand stack.
• Full-stack ML ownership. You're as comfortable designing a feature store schema as you are tuning a gradient boosting model or debugging a latency spike in production. You own the whole chain.
• Feedback loop thinking. You don't just deploy models — you design the systems that make them smarter over time. You think about how today's decisions become tomorrow's training signal.
• Rigor under real-world constraints. You know how to run clean experiments in environments where feedback is delayed, data is noisy, and business pressures create tradeoffs. You don't let imperfect conditions become an excuse for imprecise thinking.
• Pragmatic delivery. You ship. You balance the perfect with the production-ready, iterate fast, and know when an MVP outperforms a six-month research project.
• Collaborative depth. You build genuine technical trust with engineering and product partners — not just by having good ideas, but by following through, communicating clearly, and making the integration easy.

Salary Range: $165,000 - $185,000 per year, plus an additional 5% variable annual bonus contingent on Company performance and eligible to receive a Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) grant.

Qui sommes-nous:

About The Team 

Cerebras builds wafer-scale AI processors—single chips delivering tens of PB/s of memory bandwidth and a dataflow architecture that accelerates at a granularity no multi-device system can match. The Advanced Technology Group (ATG) is Cerebras’ pathfinding organization. We work ahead of product to explore new architectures, demonstrate breakthrough performance on scientific and AI workloads, and shape the technical roadmap for future Cerebras hardware and software. Our work regularly appears at top-tier venues (Supercomputing, SIAM, IEEE, and NeurIPS) and directly influences the design of next-generation wafer-scale systems. 

About The Role 

Most AI research today is shaped by the constraints of existing hardware. This role starts from the other direction: what would you build if the architecture let you rethink the fundamentals? You will design and develop AI models and training methodologies on wafer-scale hardware, working at the level of optimization theory, model architecture, and statistical foundations rather than assembling existing components. 

The ATG sits at the intersection of AI, computational science, and computer architecture, and your work will draw on all three. You will collaborate closely with Cerebras’ ASIC, compiler, kernel, and AI teams as well as external partners at universities and national laboratories. 

What You Will Do 

• Design AI models and training methods from first principles, leveraging architectural properties of wafer-scale hardware that are unavailable on conventional platforms. 
• Investigate how techniques from computational science—numerical methods, PDE solvers, simulation—can inform and advance AI model design, and explore hybrid workflows that couple simulation and learning. 
• Develop a deep understanding of the hardware substrate and use it to guide algorithmic choices: model structure, optimization strategy, memory access patterns, numerical precision. 
• Publish findings and present at top-tier venues (NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, etc.); represent Cerebras in the broader AI/ML research community. 
• Inform the design of future Cerebras hardware and software by identifying the computational patterns that matter most for next-generation AI workloads. 

What We Are Looking For 

• PhD in Machine Learning, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, or a related quantitative field preferred; exceptional candidates without a graduate degree who demonstrate equivalent depth through published research, significant open-source contributions, or a strong industry track record are encouraged to apply. 
• Mathematical maturity: comfort with the theory behind gradient methods, loss landscapes, generalization, and the relationship between model structure and data statistics. 
• Track record of published research at top-tier AI or computational science venues. 
• Proficiency in Python and PyTorch; comfort with C or other low-level languages is a strong signal. 
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills: able to present complex technical material to both ML and systems audiences, and to collaborate effectively in a fast-paced, small-team environment. 

Why This Opportunity Is Exciting And Unique 

• You will have direct access to hardware that changes what’s algorithmically possible. Tens of PB/s of memory bandwidth and fine-grained dataflow execution open design spaces that don’t exist on GPU clusters. 
• You will work alongside researchers in computational science, computer architecture, and performance engineering. The synthesis across these fields is central to ATG’s approach. 
• Your research will influence silicon - ATG’s findings directly shape the design of future Cerebras chips and systems. 

We are hiring for multiple positions across experience levels. If this work resonates, we encourage you to apply. 

This role sits at the intersection of AI engineering and application development. You’ll build customer-facing features from scratch, while also helping us integrate and scale the AI infrastructure that power them. You're deeply fluent in TypeScript and React, strong enough on the backend to own a feature end-to-end, and have meaningful experience building AI applications. You craft fast, polished, reliable software and you're drawn to problems that are genuinely unsolved.

We're looking for full stack engineers and those who lean more towards frontend.

Full stack. You understand applied AI well past the API layer: building systems that stay reliable when the model is unpredictable, writing evals that surface real signal, designing agentic workflows that hold up under production conditions. You've shipped RAG, tool calling, memory, or multi-agent patterns to real users and you know where each one breaks down.

Frontend. You notice things other engineers don't. The easing curve that's slightly off. The transition that happens too fast to register. The empty state that was clearly an afterthought. In a product where AI does most of the heavy lifting, the interface is where trust is built or broken — and you hold that line. You've built design systems from the ground up and have a point of view on motion, interaction, and what makes an AI-generated surface feel considered rather than random.

What we look for

• Production-grade React, NextJS, and TypeScript
• Strong backend experience: async systems, API design, schema decisions, scaling under real load
• For full stack: applied AI in production like RAG, tool calling, memory, multi-agent patterns, and the ability to write evals and reason about whether a system is actually improving
• For frontend: design systems, animation and motion, data-fetching patterns (TanStack Query, tRPC), and deep care for browser fundamentals and performance
• Familiarity with our infrastructure and AI tooling (Cloudflare Workers/Durable Objects, Postgres + PGVector, LangSmith, Inngest) is a plus

What success looks like

Features that are fast, reliable, and polished. Architectural and interaction decisions that make the next thing faster to build. You raise the bar for the people working alongside you.

Application process

Your works speaks louder than your resume. We want to see how you think, what you've made, and how you work with AI. Our application asks for three things:

1. A Loom video (2-3 minutes)

Tell us who you are, what you're working on or have recently built, and how AI is a core part of how you work. Don't script it. We want to see how you think out loud.

2. Something you've built or designed 

A link, a side project, a campaign. Anything that shows what you're capable of making. One strong example beats ten weak ones.

3. A few short questions

1. Why Durable 
2. Where are you located
3. What are your salary expectations

Fine print

We are a Vancouver-based company and candidates need to be based in Canada. Remote is fine - you can expect travel to Vancouver once per quarter (minimum) to work in-office with the team. 

Compensation is $180,000–$225,000 CAD base plus equity, for Vancouver-based candidates. Actual salary takes experience, location, and other factors into account.
