Top 8 search topics to teach your team members

Imagine you are (like) me, a seasoned search relevance engineer who embarks on a new journey. You start a project to implement your company’s new killer search service. You go to the project’s kickoff and start talking about all the essential search relevance features the teams need to implement. And then, nothing. That intelligent backend engineer, nothing. That funny product owner, nothing. The analytics engineer, indeed, nothing.

Imagine you are an intelligent backend engineer and excited about a new project. You are going to build a new killer search service. This seasoned search relevance engineer starts blabbering about Elasticsearch, Solr, Vector Search, Hybrid Search, BM25, facets, and filters at the project kickoff. You have no clue what that person is telling you. You gaze at the person and hope to hear something familiar.

Sounds familiar? Then this talk is for you. Learn about working together on search relevance projects.
