About the Role
The Rider Recommendations team is an Applied AI and Machine Learning team tasked with personalizing all realtime decisions happening inside the Rider Apps, including search, ride modes, content selection and ranking, message generation and others. This team is a major contributor to financial outcomes at Lyft and is evolving the Rider application to make more room for personalization and realtime decision making. The team operates as the orchestration layer behind everything that the rider sees, being the final decision maker on what to show. You will work closely with machine learning, AI engineers and data scientists to define the right objectives for the team’s models, interfacing with the rest of the company to understand the Rider App’s stakeholder teams needs and Lyft’s overall goals. You will identify the outcomes worth pursuing and translate them into a single objective to be used end to end by the applications, considering short term and long term tradeoffs, and objectives of partner teams.
Responsibilities
- Define, own and be responsible for the roadmap of applied ML and AI products in every screen of the Rider Application, through the Rider conversion funnel
- Define, track and periodically report on metrics and KPIs of the team, being directly responsible for financial outcomes that the team drives
- Define the objective function to be maximized / minimized throughout the rider app, taking into account short term, long term and stakeholder teams’ objectives (Loyalty, Partnership, Ads, Business, AV, Safety, Luxury etc)
- Work with data science to define, measure and predict long term value of Riders

- Present to non technical leadership on the progress of the team monthly, showcasing progress and highlighting roadblocks
Requirements
- Experience driving technically complex machine learning (ML) products end to end, from inception, to launch with significant user adoption, to sunset. Ideally the applications are consumer facing and involve UI interactions with users
- Experience in managing (from product perspective) a team of software engineers, tracking the progress towards a roadmap through appropriate tools (Jira, Linear, Spreadsheets, Clickup etc)
- Experience with user facing large scale experimentation (optimizely, statsig, eppo etc), knowing concepts such as power and statistical significance
- Experience in using AI agents to accelerate day to day execution including, amongst others, to: understand code, perform queries on company data, prepare dashboards for leadership
- Ability to review and provide critical product feedback to technical specifications written by engineers
- Ease in driving results and operating independently and with little supervision in flat structured organizations where approvals are not needed but results are closely monitored
Skills
- Knowledge of how machine learning and AI work, including of the most widely known machine learning and deep learning packages (xgboost, catboost, lightgbm, scikit learn, keras, pytorch etc), other than the autoresearch approach
- Familiarity with crafting and leading presentations to small groups at the CXO executive level and to big teams (100+ ppl) at an all hands like level in medium to large companies
