LiveRamp is the data collaboration platform of choice for the world’s most innovative companies. A groundbreaking leader in consumer privacy, data ethics, and foundational identity, LiveRamp is setting the new standard for building a connected customer view with unmatched clarity and context while protecting precious brand and consumer trust. LiveRamp offers complete flexibility to collaborate wherever data lives to support the widest range of data collaboration use cases—within organizations, between brands, and across its premier global network of top-quality partners.
Hundreds of global innovators, from iconic consumer brands and tech giants to banks, retailers, and healthcare leaders turn to LiveRamp to build enduring brand and business value by deepening customer engagement and loyalty, activating new partnerships, and maximizing the value of their first-party data while staying on the forefront of rapidly evolving compliance and privacy requirements.
You will:
Use statistical and ML based techniques to reduce selection bias, build representative samples, and analyze randomized studies in the ad-tech space.
Work hand-in-hand with our engineering team to design and implement data models that measure ad performance across large, disparate datasets.
Perform R&D work by prototyping new statistical and data modeling frameworks, translating prototypes into SQL and PySpark-based workflows, and then drive those prototypes into production.
Contribute to an advanced data platform with a mature code base that leverages abstraction via Python.
Work in multiple cloud environments such as AWS and GCP, and help build, monitor, and troubleshoot automated modeling jobs using technologies such as Apache AirFlow, AWS Lambda, and AWS EMR.
Troubleshoot internal and external models by understanding the key ingredients and underlying assumptions of the models.
Your team will:
Develop reach, frequency, lift, and attribution models for in-depth ad campaign measurement. Use PySpark and SQL to translate statistical models into configuration-driven workflows that operations teams can run.
Help design new product offerings in the Measurement space.
Collaborate with software and data engineers that support the data and cloud infrastructure that runs the models.
Support operations, solutions, and services teams on internally built models and workflows by writing documentation and running training sessions.
Dive deep with internal and external clients to understand their measurement needs and translate needs into product improvements.
