Job Description
• Own and manage the backlog for ML-driven biometric and document verification capabilities.
• Translate fraud, identity, and customer requirements into clear and actionable ML work items.
• Partner closely with ML engineers and data scientists to refine problem statements into feasible deliverables.
• Define acceptance criteria that reflect real world performance, not just offline model metrics.
• Participate actively in model design discussions, prioritization, and tradeoff analysis.
• Support model lifecycle activities including training, evaluation, deployment, and retraining.
• Ensure monitoring, drift detection, and feedback loops are incorporated into delivery plans.
• Partner with agent operations and data teams on labeling strategy and data quality.
• Incorporate fraud patterns and adversarial thinking into backlog prioritization.
• Work closely with engineering, fraud, compliance, legal, and customer teams.

- Demonstrated experience supporting ML based products in production.
- Direct experience working with data science and ML engineering teams.
- Strong working knowledge of computer vision and ML fundamentals.
- Experience with biometric technologies such as face matching, liveness detection, and spoof prevention.
- Experience with document verification, document classification, or document fraud detection.
- Hands-on experience building ML based products in the biometric and document identity space is highly valuable.
- Ability to evaluate tradeoffs between different modeling and data approaches without being a data scientist.
- Comfortable pushing back on ML teams when solutions are over engineered, misaligned, or not production ready.
- Able to propose alternate approaches grounded in data availability, fraud realities, and delivery constraints.
- Strong attention to detail and a bias toward shipping reliable and measurable capabilities.
- Able to clearly articulate ML concepts, risks, and tradeoffs to non technical stakeholders.
- Comfortable supporting customer facing or internal discussions around model behavior and limitations.
- Able to document requirements and acceptance criteria with precision.
