Algolia was built to help users deliver an intuitive search-as-you-type experience on their websites and mobile apps. We provide a search API used by thousands of customers in more than 100 countries. Billions of search queries are answered every month thanks to the code we push into production every day.

Join the AI Search Group: Enhancing Core Search Capabilities

The AI Search Group is dedicated to advancing the core search experience by improving both pre-query relevance (Understanding) and post-query relevance (Re-Ranking). We're responsible for key customer-facing features like Query Suggestions, Dynamic Synonym Suggestions, AI Re-Ranking, and Query Categorization. We’re looking for problem solvers with an entrepreneurial mindset—people who focus on outcomes and use data to drive decisions. If you're passionate about optimizing search relevance and applying AI thoughtfully to achieve measurable results for customers, we'd love to hear from you!
