Yelp's Search & Data Mining,
Ads, and Spam Prevention teams run services that respond to hundreds of
requests every second. Each and every query must be lightning fast,
24/7/365. This means our infrastructure needs to be both speedy and reliable.
It also needs to make efficient use of resources and be easy to use for

Your core responsibility will be helping to define and build that
long-term vision of a fast, reliable, efficient, and ductile search infrastructure.
So get your infra mojo on and join us!
