Interface Developer at Search

Search is the leading search engine in Russia and a leader in the online advertising market, one of Yandex's most important businesses. Using neurotechnology, our users quickly find answers to any question asked via text, voice, or image.

Search is always at the cutting edge of progress. We actively experiment with modern technologies, use the latest development stack, and increase our own efficiency with the help of AI.

We love to share experiences and regularly organize internal meetups (not only about frontend, but also about analytics, SRE, and other areas), and afterwards we gather at our team's own bar.
