TL;DR · Staff Machine Learning Engineer, Radar

The Staff Machine Learning Engineer, Radar joins the Radar ML team to lead the machine learning strategy for abuse prevention across the full customer lifecycle. You will design a persistent consumer risk profile and lead the development of models targeting vectors like multi-accounting, account takeover, bots, and refund abuse. This role involves building a unified abuse prevention layer by processing signals from signups, logins, payments, and product usage. You will utilize graph, sequence, and LLM-based approaches to solve problems involving sparse, delayed, and noisy labels. Key responsibilities include writing production code, defining evaluation frameworks, and building AI-native tooling. You will use machine learning, statistics, and deep learning to protect businesses from sophisticated adversaries who adapt to defenses in real-time.

What you'll do

  • Set the technical strategy and multi-quarter roadmap for lifecycle abuse machine learning.
  • Design a persistent consumer risk profile combining signals from signups, logins, payments, and product usage.
  • Lead the development of models for multi-accounting, account takeover, bots, and refund abuse using graph and LLM-based approaches.
  • Design methods to learn from sparse, delayed, and merchant-specific labels using LLM-assisted labeling and network signals.
  • Define success metrics, evaluation frameworks, and ROI estimates to help businesses balance abuse losses against growth.
  • Write production code and personally build the most technically difficult components of the abuse prevention layer.
  • Build AI-native tooling and agents to help the team investigate attacks and operate models faster.

What we're looking for

  • 8+ years of experience developing, evaluating, and deploying machine learning models in a production environment.
  • Proven track record of technically leading large, ambiguous ML initiatives from problem definition to production with measurable business impact.
  • Deep expertise in machine learning, statistics, model evaluation, and experiment design, specifically with noisy, delayed, or scarce labels.
  • Strong software engineering skills with the ability to write tested, maintainable production code.
  • Experience designing and operating production ML systems at scale, including data pipelines, real-time inference, deployment, and monitoring.
  • Experience setting technical direction across multiple engineers or teams and mentoring engineers to grow their scope.
  • Ability to explain complex tradeoffs clearly to engineers, product leaders, and customers to build cross-functional alignment.
  • Experience applying ML to fraud, abuse, integrity, trust and safety, identity, or security (preferred).
