At Quantcast, we're redefining what's possible in digital advertising. As a global Demand Side Platform (DSP) powered by AI, we help marketers connect with the right audiences and deliver measurable results across the Open Web. Our foundation is built on cutting-edge measurement and consumer analytics, giving our clients the tools they need to drive success in an ever-evolving digital landscape. Since our start in 2006, we've pioneered industry firsts—from launching the original measurement platform for digital publishers to introducing the first AI-driven DSP. If you're ready to be part of a dynamic, forward-thinking team that thrives on creating transformative solutions, Quantcast is the perfect place to grow your career. The Modeling team is responsible for Machine Learning (ML) Systems at Quantcast and is located in London and San Francisco. We build and maintain multiple ML products. We price millions of bid requests per second in a real-time auction environment to maximize advertiser outcomes. For each bid our models predict age, gender, viewability, fraud, advertiser relevance and many more characteristics. Using NLP, clustering and LLMs we build topics in multiple languages to help our advertisers target customers interested in relevant content.
