Original posting

Medallia - Palo Alto, CA - http://engineering.medallia.com For those interested in Big Data and/or Machine Learning ... If you only want to experiment with the latest ML models and spend months tuning features and hyperparameters until model A outperforms model B, then applied research may be a better fit. However, if you want the full responsibility of building out a product which uses machine learning to provide key customer insights to over 250 multi-billion dollar corporations across the world, then consider joining Medallia's text analytics team. What we're actually working on: - debugging performance bottlenecks in distributed data set clustering algorithms - building clean data model abstractions to support an interactive topic modeling application - gauging per-client user-impact when changing various pieces of our text processing stack - breaking a monolithic architecture into microservices to handle new exciting use cases! - porting word2vec to java If this sounds like fun, then please send an email to wko@medallia.com
