Team Introduction:
The Global E-commerce Recommendation Live Algorithm team is responsible for the core recommendation stack for live commerce, covering the full pipeline from recall and pre-ranking to ranking and mixed ranking.
The team operates in a highly dynamic environment where live room status changes in real time, conversion signals are sparse, and user intent must be understood across content, commerce, and transaction scenarios.
By combining generative recommendation, large recommendation models, multimodal representation learning, and cross-domain value modeling, the team works on some of the most important algorithmic problems in live commerce.
Our goal is to improve user experience, optimize ecosystem efficiency, and drive sustainable business growth for TikTok Shop across global markets.
We are looking for talented individuals to join us for an internship.
Our internship program offers students hands-on experience, industry exposure, and opportunities to apply their knowledge to real-world challenges while building a strong foundation for personal and professional growth.
Interns will gain practical experience, explore potential career paths, and participate in social events, learning programs, and development workshops alongside industry professionals.
Candidates may apply to a maximum of two positions across Our Company and its affiliates globally.
Applications will be considered in the order they are submitted.
Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, so we encourage you to apply early.
Please clearly state your availability in your resume, including your start and end dates.
Responsibilities:
- Build and optimize recommendation models across recall, pre-ranking, ranking, and mixed ranking to improve GMV, conversion, watch time, and long-term user value.
- Develop cross-domain and multimodal modeling solutions that connect videos, live streams, products, and user behavior to better power live commerce recommendations.
- Advance next-generation recommendation technologies, including generative recommendation, large recommendation models, reinforcement learning, and long-term value optimization.
- Partner with cross-functional teams to launch scalable solutions, run experiments, and turn research into measurable business impact.
