About the team:

The Analyst Platform 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, learn insights and navigate the ever-changing world of fraud fighting without needing to understand the complex technology underneath. That means creating a web application that distills complex ML signals, automation tools running on a highly-available multi-service architecture, and providing customer-facing analytics tooling to make endless streams of data understandable, actionable and usable.

We’re looking for an experienced engineer to help drive our product forward, helping to shape our architecture, and sharpen our toolset as we scale up for our enterprise customers.

Great candidates will be passionate about providing great end-to-end customer experience and building the components powering our service. You’ll bring experience in taking your ideas from concept to customer, at scale, with high quality, and on time. You thrive on high-growth, high-impact opportunities at a growing startup. You have a clear sense of how you can leverage your strengths and past experience while learning new things. You excel at creating order from ambiguity, and distilling simplicity from complexity.

• Drive for clarity through complexity, partnering with Engineering Leadership and Product Management to determine the right balance of scope and schedule
• Collaborate with other members of our Analyst Platform team as we continue building industry-leading products to promote digital trust and safety
• Help guide the overall architecture of the analyst platform components
