You’ll work with large datasets and apply supervised and unsupervised machine learning techniques to strengthen our fraud detection systems and automate decision‑making. This role requires a strong understanding of imbalanced classification problems, solid feature engineering skills, and the ability to adapt models to evolving user behavior and new fraud strategies. Experience in fintech, banking, insurance, or other industries with a strong focus on fraud prevention and automated controls is desirable. Responsibilities
- Data analysis and modeling: Explore large‑scale transactional and behavioral datasets to uncover patterns associated with fraud.
- Model development and validation: Build and validate classification models using ML techniques tailored to imbalanced problems (fraud vs. non‑fraud).
- Feature engineering: Create derived variables that enhance model performance and generalization while avoiding overfitting.
- Cross‑functional collaboration: Work with engineering, product, and operations teams to ensure seamless integration of models into decision flows.
- Monitoring and iteration: Track model performance in production and iterate based on behavioral changes, fraud tr... #J-18808-Ljbffr Postúlate en Kit Empleo: kitempleo.com.ar/empleo/qbzqs
