What's the working level grade for engineers?
There isn't a set grade level for engineers, but most of our staff starts at a GS 14 or 15.
What about for entry-level candidates?

That one is a special case and pretty selective (it is a tiny group within CloudFlare working on next gen products; it is generally people who have been with the company for a while, but we would do direct hire for exceptional candidates. For that one, mail me directly.)

Do you need to hire somebody for this? It frankly doesn't seem like a hideously difficult problem and probably doesn't require a backend of any sort, except maybe to store logs for developing better recognition.
I'm not sure if you're trolling me, but looking through your other comments seems like you are a serious commenter :), so I'll treat your query as bona fide. The main problems are: * transmission of data in a reliable fashion (both from the phone and the module which plugs into your car) to the decision system * making decisions quickly and accurately based on incomplete data (due to dead zones, time shifts, etc) * d…

#740Applied Scientist | Bing Relevance (Microsoft) | Bellevue WA | Full-time & Interns
(Re-posting since the original post had the wrong email and I can't seem to edit it.)
We are the Bing Core Relevance team responsible for retrieving and ranking organic results for given search queries from hundreds of billions of indexed web documents. On top of that, we are also aggressively evolving Bing search engine from key word search centric system to a set of more general intelligence (AGI) capabilities that can help solve broader intent fulfillment, knowledge retrieval and task completion problems. Apart from the 10 blue links, we also power the instant answer for queries like "why is the sky blue" on bing.com.
Our core drivers are large scale machine learning, including DNN based technologies, along with analyzing, inferring and experimenting with truly big data. As part of the team, you would be driving relevance projects through their entire life-cycle from idea creation through implementation, experimentation and finally to shipping. We also closely collaborate with Microsoft Research on joint projects.
Preferred qualification: MS/PhD in computer science or related field. Background in machine learning, deep learning, NLP, distributed systems, or statistics. Programming experience in C++/C#/Java.
Openings are at all levels. You can reach us at bingpydata@microsoft.com
