Hybrid work at Stripe

## Description

The Radar ML team builds the fraud detection models that protect Stripe's $1.9 trillion payment network from fraud. The team owns 10+ real-time deep learning models that must constantly evolve to stay ahead of fraudsters. Each ML improvement translates directly into dollar impact for Stripe and its users.

The team's models also power the Radar product suite that tens of thousands of businesses use to screen payments and manage fraud. Radar is growing fast, and the team is actively building new products like defenses against AI token theft, free trial abuse, and programmatic attacks.

What you'll do

In this role, you will own ML work across the full lifecycle: researching new fraud patterns, building and deploying models, and sharing results directly with top Stripe customers. You will have opportunities to optimize Stripe's most intensive ML models, and opportunities to ship 0-to-1 products from scratch., * Build, train, evaluate, and deploy ML models that detect fraud across Stripe's global payments network

 * Research emerging fraud patterns like token theft and develop ML solutions to address them
 * Apply advances in deep learning to improve model quality and detection rates at scale
 * Co-build new fraud and abuse products directly with top users, Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams.
