Yelp connects people with great local businesses, but who connects search queries to 180M+ reviews on millions of businesses in under 400 milliseconds? Who selects the perfect ad from millions of options in the blink of an eye? And after that user has found the perfect restaurant and is happily munching on their quinoa salad, who makes sure our logs are transported, transformed, and indexed so we can do even better next time?
We’re looking for experienced engineers to join our team and build elegant, scalable platforms that bring the potential of data streams to Yelp’s features teams.

At the end of the day, we’re all about helping our users, growing as engineers, and having fun in a collaborative environment.
