About the role

  • Architect and build scalable ML systems for fraud detection, anomaly detection, and behavioral analysis
  • Develop and maintain end-to-end ML pipelines: data ingestion, feature engineering, model training, deployment, and continuous monitoring
  • Design and implement low-latency, real-time decision systems partnering with fraud risk data scientists, integrating with transaction or behavioral data streams
  • Own ML infrastructure, including model versioning, automated retraining, and safe deployment strategies (e.g., shadow, rollback).
  • Build robust monitoring and alerting for model performance, latency, data quality, and drift
  • Lead experimentation on model explainability, drift detection, and adversarial robustness for fraud prevention use cases
  • Develop tooling and processes to improve the effectiveness and speed of the ML development lifecycle
  • Partner with platform teams to meet strict SLAs for availability, latency, and accuracy
  • Collaborate closely with talented engineer, data scientist and compliance teams across Rain
  • Work in a fast-paced environment on a rapidly growing product suite.
  • Solve complex problems at the intersection of ML systems, data, and reliability

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience building ML systems in production; at least 2+ in fraud, risk, or anomaly detection domains
  • A degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Statistics, Applied Math or a related technical field
  • Proven track record designing and maintaining ML models at scale
  • Advanced proficiency in Python and ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn)
  • Strong understanding of supervised / unsupervised learning, anomaly detection, and statistical modeling
  • Ability to work autonomously, manage ambiguity, and collaborate closely with data scientists to translate analytical models into robust fraud prevention systems
  • Experience developing, validating, and productionalizing predictive real-time and offline fraud detection models using supervised and unsupervised ML techniques.
  • Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams to prioritize, scope, and deploy MLI solutions at scale
Benefits
  • Unlimited time off
  • Flexible working
  • Easy to access benefits
  • Retirement goals
  • Equity plan
  • Rain Cards
