Description
About your team
We’re a Data team, bringing together specialists passionate about turning data into reliable, actionable decisions . We build the foundations—data pipelines, datasets, and platform capabilities—that make analytics and machine learning scalable and trustworthy for the whole organization.
In this role, you’ll join our Risk-focused efforts and help evolve our fraud detection capabilities. The team is moving from a legacy, manual approach toward an end-to-end ML lifecycle with robust training, deployment, monitoring, and evaluation. You’ll work on real-time decisioning use cases, partner closely with Risk and engineering stakeholders, and tackle the practical challenges of fraud modeling—imbalanced data, delayed/partial labels, and building strong feedback loops to continuously improve model performance.
-
Build and iterate on real-time fraud/risk models (e.g., gradient boosting and anomaly detection approaches) to score transactions during checkout and support Risk decisioning.
-
Own the full ML lifecycle for fraud detection models: data exploration, feature engineering, training, evaluation, deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement.
-
Design robust evaluation strategies for rare-event, highly imbalanced data, including handling delayed/partial ground truth and defining metrics aligned with business constraints.
-
Partner closely with Risk, backend, and Data/Platform teams to productionize models behind an API, integrate with the risk engine, and improve model-driven decision flows (pre-/post-authorization).
-
Drive experimentation and feedback-loop initiatives to improve labels and model quality over time, while maintaining strong reliability, observability, and documentation.
,
-
3+ years of experience as a Machine Learning Engineer (or in a similar applied ML role), ideally working with risk/fraud, anomaly detection, credit/default modeling, or other rare-event classification problems.
-
Strong Python skills and hands-on experience building and iterating on supervised ML models (e.g., Gradient Boosting/LightGBM or similar), including feature engineering and model evaluation.
-
Proven ability to design and run robust experimentation and evaluation under real-world constraints (imbalanced data, delayed/late-arriving labels, noisy or partial ground truth).
-
Experience taking models to production and supporting the full model lifecycle (training, deployment, monitoring, and iteration) in collaboration with engineering teams.
-
Solid knowledge of ML metrics and decisioning (precision/recall, thresholding, calibration, offline vs. online performance) and how they translate into business outcomes.
-
Familiarity with modern MLOps tooling and practices (e.g., MLflow) and working with feature stores (Databricks Feature Store or alternatives).
-
Nice to have: experience with real-time / streaming feature pipelines or infrastructure (e.g., Kafka, Flink, Feast) and building low-latency model services/APIs for real-time scoring.
