Industrial recommendation ranking models typically scale along two modeling axes: feature interaction over heterogeneous user, item, context, and cross features, and sequence modeling over long, informative, and multi-type user behavior histories. We find that scaling either capability in isolation is insufficient, as each exhibits a limited scaling ceiling and a suboptimal scaling-law slope. We conjecture that achieving a more favorable scaling-law slope requires jointly scaling both axes. To support this, we present HELIX, a purified and unified architecture for large-scale recommendation. HELIX interleaves sequence retrieval and feature interaction while enforcing one-way information flow from reusable sequence states to candidate-conditioned mix-tokens. This design preserves cross-depth communication between the two modeling axes while keeping user-side sequence computation amortizable, enabling flexible and asymmetric scaling of sequence modeling and feature interaction. Deployed in TikTok's e-commerce recommendation system, HELIX consistently improves offline CTR AUC, CVR AUC, and other ranking metrics. In online A/B tests, it achieves an approximately 6% increase in e-commerce video GMV per user.
