  • Experience: Minimum 1 year of hands-on experience in Data Science or Advanced Analytics.
  • Technical Core: Proficiency in Python (Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-learn) and SQL.
  • Statistical Rigor: Solid foundation in statistical modeling, feature selection, and performance evaluation (Precision/Recall, AUC, KS).
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with graph theory or link analysis for detecting network-based fraud.
  • Familiarity with unsupervised learning techniques or anomaly detection.
  • Previous experience working in a high-growth SaaS or Fintech environment.
  • Domain Knowledge: Familiarity with Fraud Detection, Credit Risk, or Trust & Safety, including knowledge of payment rails (FedNow, ACH, Wire) and typologies (Synthetic ID, ATO, Kiting).

Benefits
  • Salary ranges between USD 120,000 and 170,000.
