The role
Senior Data Scientist, ML— Fraud Detection & Effectiveness
We are seeking an experienced Senior Machine Learning Data Scientist to build fraud and abuse detection models and measure how effectively they work. This role combines hands-on modeling with deep experimentation, evaluation, and analytics to improve detection and quantify business impact.
You will work across the fraud lifecycle — from modeling and ground-truth definition to performance measurement, monitoring, and executive-ready insights!
What you will do
- Build and tune ML models for fraud and abuse detection using statistical and classical ML techniques.
- Develop robust evaluation frameworks, datasets, and metrics to measure model and mitigation effectiveness.
- Analyze false positives/negatives, model drift, and emerging fraud patterns to continuously improve detection.
- Define ground truth, labeling approaches, and fraud taxonomies that support reliable model development and evaluation.
