## About the Role

* 5+ years of experience developing, evaluating, and deploying machine learning models in a production environment.
 * A track record of leading ML projects from problem definition to production, with measurable impact.
 * Deep foundations in machine learning, statistics, model evaluation, and experiment design.
 * Strong programming and software-engineering skills, with experience writing tested, maintainable code for production ML applications.
 * Experience designing and operating production ML systems, including several of: large-scale data and feature pipelines, distributed model training, low-latency inference, model deployment, or production monitoring.
 * Experience mentoring engineers or technically leading projects with multiple contributors.
 * Ability to investigate ambiguous problems, reason from data, and choose pragmatic technical approaches.
 * Ability to communicate technical ideas and results clearly and collaborate effectively across disciplines., * Experience applying ML to fraud detection, integrity, trust and safety, identity, cybersecurity, or another adversarial domain.
 * Experience developing or productionizing modern deep learning, graph-learning, or LLM-based approaches.
 * Experience building and optimizing real-time, low-latency ML systems at scale.
 * Experience owning the operational health of critical ML systems, including on-call, incident response, and migrations.
 * Experience rapidly building 0*1 products or working directly with customers.
 * Experience building AI-assisted tooling or agents that measurably increased a team's velocity., In-office expectations

## Description

* Lead the design and delivery of ML projects end to end, from framing the problem and sizing the opportunity through deployment, monitoring, and iteration.
 * Build, train, evaluate, and deploy models that detect fraud and abuse across Stripe's global network, and own the production systems they run on.
 * Investigate emerging fraud and abuse patterns, decide where ML can have the most impact, and quickly turn those insights into shipped protections.
 * Design features, datasets, and evaluation strategies for noisy, delayed, and adversarial environments, and set the bar for experimental rigor.
 * Make sound architecture and modeling tradeoffs between model quality, legitimate-user impact, latency, reliability, and operational cost.
 * Be the go-to expert for the systems you own: lead incident response for model regressions, reduce operational toil, and make your systems easy for others to build on.
 * Partner with engineering, product, data science, risk experts, and leading Stripe users to turn modeling improvements into differentiated Radar products.
 * Turn recurring problems into reusable components, tools, and AI-assisted workflows that speed up the whole team.
 * Mentor engineers, give thoughtful design and code reviews, and help new teammates ramp up quickly.

Who you are
You are an experienced ML engineer who combines deep modeling expertise with strong engineering judgment. You've owned ML systems in production, shipped multiple meaningful improvements, and made the people around you more effective. You move fast without breaking things, you're comfortable leading through ambiguity, and you're excited to work at the frontier of payments and AI, turning advances in machine learning into production systems that address new forms of fraud and abuse.
We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement., Office-assigned Stripes in most of our locations are currently expected to spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This expectation may vary depending on role, team and location. For example, Stripes in Stripe Delivery Center roles in Mexico City, Mexico, Bengaluru, India, and Dublin, Ireland work 100% from the office. Also, some teams have greater in-office attendance requirements, to appropriately support our users and workflows, which the hiring manager will discuss. This approach helps strike a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility when possible.
