About the role

  • End-to-end ML ownership: Lead the full lifecycle of ML systems — feature engineering, model design, training, evaluation, deployment, monitoring, and iteration.
  • Collaborate with a strong team: Work alongside data engineers, platform engineers, and product teammates who ensure you have the infrastructure, data, and context to deliver.
  • Design & deploy production models: Build high-performance ML applications in risk, fraud, trust & safety, and compliance domains.
  • Keep models healthy in production: Proactively monitor, detect drift, and retrain to ensure long-term performance and reliability.
  • Experiment & learn: Drive online experiments, offline evaluation, and counterfactual analyses to prove impact.
  • Shape ML foundations: Contribute to the feature store, model management, training/serving pipelines, and best practices that scale ML across multiple use cases.

Requirements

  • 4+ years applied ML experience with proven impact in risk, fraud, trust & safety, compliance, fintech, or other high-stakes domains.
  • Track record of owning ML models end-to-end — from research and design to deployment, monitoring, and retraining in production.
  • Strong software engineering skills (Python, ML frameworks, deployment pipelines) and ability to write reliable, production-grade code.
  • Hands-on experience with ML infrastructure such as feature stores, model management, training/serving pipelines, and monitoring tools.
  • Comfortable as a senior IC: you can set technical direction, establish best practices, and mentor peers while collaborating effectively across teams.
  • Experience working cross-functionally with data engineers, platform engineers, and product stakeholders to bring ML systems to life.
  • Deep expertise in classification challenges such as imbalanced labels, sparse signals, cold start, and production version management.
