The Data Science team builds production ML models and risk management tools that are the core of Signifyd's product.
We help businesses of all sizes minimize their fraud exposure and grow their sales. We improve the e-commerce shopping experience for everyone by reducing the number of false positive declines of good buyers and by making fraud less profitable for criminals.
The team has end-to-end ownership of our decisioning engine, from research and development to online performance and risk management.
We value collaboration and team ownership -- no one should feel they're solving a hard problem alone.
Together we help each other develop our skillsets through peer review of experiments and code, group paper study to deepen our ML and stats understanding, and frequent knowledge-sharing through live demos, write-ups, and special cross-team projects.
