About the job

Ads Metrics is the Data Science team for Search ads. We support the SAGE (Search Ads and Google Experience) organization in developing the most important ad products at Google - from classic text ads, to rich shopping ads, to exciting new products like Demand Gen Campaigns, Local Ads, Travel Ads, etc. These products - the heart of Google’s business driving $200B+ in annual revenue - are complex, advanced, and are rapidly growing and evolving.

We guide product development and executive decisions with data. Particularly, we measure the long term impact of all the changes we make on users, advertisers, and Google systems with innovative experiment designs; identify new growth opportunities with deep data analysis; and understand the tradeoffs between user, advertiser and Google value with principled frameworks.

We work closely with our Eng/PM collaborators to improve our products, and with SAGE executives to understand the growth levers and their impact on business. Our role is to drive long term value for Google’s business with rigorous, insightful data science!
