Our purpose is simple: to simplify and improve people's lives and build an awesome organisation that inspires. Since 2012, Careem has enabled earnings for over 2.5 million Captains, simplified the lives of more than 70 million customers, and built a platform where the region's best talent and entrepreneurs thrive. We operate in 70+ cities across 10 countries, from Morocco to Pakistan.
Responsibilities
- ● Own hyper-personalization use cases across Food, Quik, and Shops, designing systems that learn a user's intent and preferences in real time and transfer that signal across verticals so a user's behavior on one product makes every other product smarter.
- ● Be a technical lead on Careem's exploration of graph based retrieval methods for recommendations, including evaluating and building knowledge graph pipelines that power candidate generation and ranking at scale.
- ● Design and evaluate transformer based architectures (XFY) for sequential and contextual recommendation, moving Careem's ranking and retrieval stack beyond classical ML toward deep, attention based models.
- ● Push toward online/streaming learning systems that adapt to user behavior within a session, not just from batch trained models refreshed on a daily cadence.
- ● Identify where personalization signals, models, or infrastructure can be shared across Food, Quik, and Shops rather than rebuilt per vertical, reducing duplicate work and compounding the value of every experiment.
- ● Build a long term vision for how Careem rethinks customer acquisition and engagement strategies, grounded in data driven decision making.
