Requirements

  • 5-10 years of industry experience in applied machine learning, with a track record of building and productionizing models at scale.
  • 1-2+ years of hands-on experience with LLMs and GenAI technologies, including agentic frameworks, orchestration, and evaluation.
  • Strong programming skills in Python; familiarity with Scala, Java, or equivalent.
  • Knowledge of machine learning practices including training/serving skew minimization, A/B testing, feature engineering, and model selection.
  • Experience with algorithms such as gradient boosted trees, neural networks, transformers, and deep learning.
  • Experience with TensorFlow, PyTorch, or equivalent machine learning frameworks and tooling.
  • Experience building end-to-end data engineering and machine learning pipelines, including batch and real-time systems.
  • Experience designing evaluation methodologies for ML or LLM systems, including benchmarks, ground truth, offline/online metrics, and calibration.
  • Exposure to architectural patterns for large-scale software applications, such as well-designed APIs, high-volume data pipelines, and efficient algorithms.
  • Experience with test-driven development, incremental delivery, and deployment practices.
  • Bachelor's, master's, or PhD in CS/ML or a related field.
  • Experience with multimodal models or exposure to Trust and Risk topics such as fraud detection, anomaly detection, identity, or account integrity is a plus.

Responsibilities

  • Frame and prototype ML and agentic solutions for ambiguous problems with product managers, data scientists, and front line defense teams.
  • Design, build, and productionize end-to-end machine learning pipelines for batch and real-time use cases.
  • Build and improve abuse behavior detection that generalizes across defenses.
  • Design, launch, and iterate on AI agents that automate trust decisions, including orchestration, tool interfaces, and guardrails.
  • Build benchmarks, evaluation harnesses, and instrumentation to measure and improve model and agent decision quality.
  • Develop specialized models for trust and safety use cases and use LLMs and AI agents to accelerate model development.
  • Write, review, and ship clean, testable code for models and scalable, reliable pipelines.
  • Work with large-scale structured and unstructured data to improve machine learning models.
  • Partner with front line defense teams to validate solutions through experiments and holdouts and quantify business and operational impact.
