Twitter is what’s happening and what people are talking about right now. For us, life's not about a job, it's about purpose. We believe real change starts with a conversation. Here, your voice matters. Come as you are and together we'll do what's right (not what's easy) to serve the public conversation.

Who We Are: The Relevance Platform team is part of one of the largest consumer organizations at Twitter. Our mission is to accelerate the development of Twitter recommendation products by providing a shared platform with simple integrations which aids the experimentation and cross-surface productionisation of new candidate sources. 

This team leads the charge of Personalization as an Initiative across the entirety of the Twitter consumer product. As such, the team carries a very high level of visibility with leadership and is directly responsible for facilitating core engagement, retention, and growth strategies at Twitter.
