Zineb Ait Bahajji, one of the well liked Webmaster Trends Analysts at Google, informed us on Twitter that she has left that team back in March. I guess that is why Google is hiring there.
Zineb said she left that team back in March to join the conversational search team which focuses on Google Now on Tap and the Google assistant technology. It is a really cool space to be and involves a lot of AI and search. She just doesn't have to deal with Penguin questions anymore. :)
Also, yesterday, Zineb Ait Bahajji won a SEMY in Paris at SMX France. Here is a photo of it from Twitter:
Congrats Zineb on the award, thanks for all your help in our community and best of luck on the conversational search area - it is an exciting place to be.
