We're responsible for guiding products throughout the execution cycle, focusing specifically on analyzing, positioning, packaging, promoting, and tailoring our solutions to our users.

In this role, you will help build the future of YouTube recommendations. You will improve recommendations for viewers across YouTube shorts, YouTube home feed, and watch next by making these systems more aware of viewers’ shopping interests and their intent to purchase. You will work across all YouTube recommendations teams and be at the forefront of applying Large Language Models (LLMs) to improve recommendations systems.

At YouTube, we believe that everyone deserves to have a voice, and that the world is a better place when we listen, share, and build community through our stories. We work together to give everyone the power to share their story, explore what they love, and connect with one another in the process.

We explore new ideas, solve real problems, and have fun — and we do it all together.
