2. • Just not efficient
• Limitations to our processing capabilities
• The talent ecosystem is changing fast - becoming hard to keep
up and understand context
Why transform? Some of the challenges
“it all starts and stops with people”
We decided to build a recommendation engine were the job
descriptions becomes the search query.

3. • Profiles and job descriptions - augmentation
• Interaction between “profiles and jobs”
• Our solution: build network effect and create transparency -
recommendations as a service (or - a quick win in the “sexy category)
Our “super matchmaker” needs data, data and more data

10. accessible, easy and fast
should not interfere with delivery
modular pipelines
model repository
execute (& train?) models live
measure KPIs live
A/B testing live
pending all of the above
• Gather data
• Bulk read, long-running, resource intensive
• Apply modeling
• To a lesser extend, develop models and/or algorithms
• Execute experiments
• Often on a fixed dataset
• Measuring for model selection, not KPIs directly
• Follow state-of-the-art (or invent it)

Data scientist, ML engineer, DS/ML/AI researcher, etc.

Or: How you learn to stop
worrying and love the data
Part I
λ (lambda) architecture
• Immutable event store
• Functions over all data at once
Batch layer:
Periodically updates functions over all data
Speed layer:
Real time updates functions over latest data
Serving layer:
batch + speed
