Notifications builds the ML systems that decide which messages to send, to whom, when, how often, and via which channel, while asset personalization leads multimodal generation, recommendation, and tagging to help members make informed viewing decisions.

The teams partner closely with the broader ML organization (ML Platform, Recommendations, Foundation Models) and a diverse cross-functional organization (Engineering, Product, Data Science, CRM, Live, Games). Messaging is the most mature and complex of the teams. It is further divided into three areas: Candidate Generation: Scaling the message catalog via creator tooling integrations and GenAI message creation Send Decision Optimization: Improving targeting decisions across the notification system Emerging Applications: Expanding message personalization into new business areas and member states including Podcasts, FTAB, and Commerce applications.
