LinkedIn operates the world’s largest professional network with more than 645 million members in over 200 countries and territories. This team builds distributed systems that collect, manage and analyze this digital representation of the world's economy, while our AI experts, data scientists and researchers conduct applied research that fuel LinkedIn’s data-driven products and provide insights that shape our business decisions.

As a members-first organization, LinkedIn keeps the privacy and security of our members at the forefront in all of our work. We work to improve the relevance in our products, contribute to the open source community and are actively pursuing research in a number of areas: computational advertising, data and graph mining, machine learning and infrastructure, recommender systems, A/B testing, search and much more.
