Summary
As part of the Platform Engineering team, you will help build DataVisor’s next-generation machine learning platform, combining our proprietary unsupervised machine learning technology with supervised machine learning algorithms to power real-time fraud detection at scale.
As fraud attacks become increasingly sophisticated, real-time detection is more critical than ever. Our platform team is responsible for designing and developing the architecture that makes scalable, real-time detection possible, including streaming systems, storage layers, and training pipelines that support our core detection capabilities.
We are looking for a creative, hands-on engineering leader to help expand our streaming and database systems, improve our core detection algorithms, and automate the end-to-end training process. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex distributed systems problems, mentoring engineers, and driving technical execution in a high-impact environment.
Join us as we continue to push the boundaries of fraud detection, machine learning infrastructure, and large-scale data processing.
What You’ll Do
- Own the technical direction of the real-time detection platform, including streaming, storage, and the training pipelines that support it.
- Translate product and engineering roadmaps into clear technical plans, milestones, and execution priorities.
- Proactively identify technical risks, dependencies, and trade-offs before they impact delivery.
- Lead design and architecture reviews, make technical trade-off decisions, and document the reasoning behind key decisions.
- Stay hands-on by coding, reviewing code, debugging issues, and supporting the team during production incidents.
