About the role

The E-commerce Global Supply Chain and Logistics team is dedicated to enhancing clients' shopping experience and reducing logistics operational cost in TikTok E-commerce. We are currently looking for talented software engineers that have a deep understanding of machine learning (ML), operations research (OR), data mining and statistical inference. This position can be fulfilled in our San Jose and Seattle offices.
Responsibilities: Build deep learning and statistical models to provide end-to-end estimated time of arrival (ETA) prediction for the e-commerce logistics. Through fine adjustment of ETA expression to the consumers, improve the click-to-order rate while balancing the negative review indicators.- Use data mining tools to build logistics network knowledge graphs, based on which to construct a situational awareness & early warning system for logistics fulfillment, enabling operations to discover and deal with logistics network anomalies, and to improve the logistics fulfillment quality together with logistics service providers.- Analyze and predict the spatio-temporal trajectory sequence of express packages through deep learning, statistical inference and other algorithmic methods. This trajectory prediction can help to build a better understanding of logistics network dynamics, improve ETA prediction accuracy and provide important sample features for other prediction tasks.- Build a service network design (SND) model for the location selection of transshipment centers and last mile stations based on an expected increase in logistics order volume.- Extract the direction of logistics operation optimization, cost reduction and service quality improvement by in-depth understanding of supply chain and logistics scenarios.- Develop innovative and state-of-the-art e-commerce logistics models and algorithms
Minimum Qualifications: Master's or PhD degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Operations Research or related fields.- Strong in data structures and algorithms, with excellent problem-solving ability and programming skills- Experience in applied machine learning, familiar with one or more algorithms such as Matrix Factorization, Factorization Machines, Word2vec, Logistic Regression, Gradient Boosting Trees, Deep Neural Networks etc.- Experience with at least one of the Big Data tools (For eg. Hive sql/Spark/Mapreduce; at least one of the Deep Learning tools(For eg. Tensorflow/Pytorch).PreferredQualifications- Work experience in e-commerce, supply chain, logistics, transportation or related fields is preferred.- Publications at KDD、NeurIPS、WWW、SIGIR、WSDM、CIKM、ICLR、ICML、IJCAI、AAAI and related conferences.- 3+ years of working experience in machine learning, operations research or big data analysis.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
