About Pinterest:

Millions of people across the world come to Pinterest to find new ideas every day. It’s where they get inspiration, dream about new possibilities and plan for what matters most. Our mission is to help those people find their inspiration and create a life they love. In your role, you’ll be challenged to take on work that upholds this mission and pushes Pinterest forward. You’ll grow as a person and leader in your field, all the while helping Pinners make their lives better in the positive corner of the internet.

Creating a life you love also means finding a career that celebrates the unique perspectives and experiences that you bring. As you read through the expectations of the position, consider how your skills and experiences may complement the responsibilities of the role. We encourage you to think through your relevant and transferable skills from prior experiences.

Our new progressive work model is called PinFlex, a term that’s uniquely Pinterest to describe our flexible approach to living and working. Visit our PinFlex landing page to learn more.

We are seeking a Staff Data Scientist for Pinterest’s Infrastructure Data Science and Engineering (IDSE) team. In order to deliver our product experiences to Pinners around the world, Pinterest invests heavily in our infrastructure systems (i.e. storing Pins, training ranking models, serving ad impressions, etc.) - and as a result, it’s a topline company priority for us to manage our infrastructure spend and usage efficiently. The IDSE team provides actionable insights on Pinterest’s infrastructure data - which enables us to reduce our costs, become more efficient, lower our carbon footprint, and grow sustainably as a company.
