About the team:

The Analyst Platform Team bridges the gap between our machine learning at scale and our customers' needs. By combining a strong sense of what is right for the customer with knowledge of big data and distributed systems, we provide a seamless way for our customers to make decisions, gain valuable insights and navigate the ever-changing world of fraud fighting without needing to understand the complex technology underneath. We build vertical solutions that synthesize complex ML signals into novel visualizations, control automation tools running on a highly-available multi-service architecture, and provide customer-facing analytics to make our domain data understandable and actionable.

What you’ll do:

• Grow a team of talented, broadly-capable engineers to own our direct customer experience as well as the systems that deliver unique, strategic insights in a challenging domain.
• Help identify key strategic areas for investment in both product and technical backlogs
• Lead your team as they plan and deliver features and platform improvements
• Collaborate with product managers and other engineering teams to ensure we are working effectively and focusing on the right priorities
