Senior Software Engineer, ML Platform - Forter

About the role: 

Forter is looking for a Senior Engineer with a data engineering background to join our growing ML Platform team. This is a great opportunity to enter the world of Machine Learning. Together we’ll provide tools to develop more effective models, get them into production faster, and ensure that they continue to perform well over time.

ML is central to Forter’s work. In 2020 alone, it enabled us to process e-commerce transactions worth over $200B, make decisions in real time, identify fraud rings, and quickly detect new attack methods. Precision is crucial - bad decisions by our models cost us directly and put money into the pockets of fraudsters.

Our adoption by merchants around the world provides us with billions of fresh data points each day. Our team of data scientists, analysts, and cyber intelligence specialists continually identify new signals, engineer new features, and research new models. But as the volume of data and the number and complexity of models grows, so do the engineering challenges. 

If this kind of working environment sounds exciting to you, if you understand that Engineering is about building the most effective and elegant solution within a given set of constraints - consider applying for this position.

Why should you join us?

You’ll be part of a highly proficient engineering team that is a focal point for all ML engineering activity, striving to constantly bring innovation and leverage ML capabilities across all company teams and products.

This role presents a unique opportunity to enter the ML domain. For those already experienced in ML infrastructure, it offers the chance to grow within a team that specializes in high-scale, Big Data and ML systems.
