Join Amazon's Risk Management team, delivering real-time evaluation of bad-actor risk across buyers, sellers, and vendors. You will build scalable systems and ML-powered models that process hundreds of millions of transactions, with an emphasis on reliability, observability, and fast experimentation. The role involves collaborating with ML scientists to develop and deploy risk models and support self-service capabilities for multiple risk-use cases globally. This position offers ownership and impact at Amazon scale in a security-focused, data-driven environment.
The Unified Risk Evaluation System team owns the charter of evaluating bad actor risk of all kinds (Buyer, Seller, Vendor) across entities such as Orders, Purchases, Signins and any event that will be useful to evaluate risky behavior. We process every single order and purchase in real time, totaling to more than 50 Billion evaluations in a year saving Billions of dollars that would otherwise be lost to bad actors. We build self-service capabilities to experiment new machine learning models and make it easy to onboard and manage 100s of risk use cases all over the world. We are the gate keepers of customer trust by preventing bad actors from doing damage to good customers or scamming Amazon. The problems we solve will challenge the best in terms of scale, ingenuity of bad actors and the cost of making risk decisions through bold goals we take such as automate 100% of risk decisions or reduce fraud and Abuse by 50% year over year.
Come join the best in class team of engineers, who are owners, and inventors. We are at the intersection of Machine Learning and Security, while delivering customer impact at amazon scale. Interact with ML scientists on a daily basis, and build the platform to beat to keep the bad guys out.
