We're a small team of hackers who believe in the power of data. Our initial product is an API to battle credit card fraud, which causes $2.4B/year in damages, 70% of it driven by organized crime, and has literally killed companies before. We're building large-scale classification techniques paired with elegant visualization tools to help our customers take a stand.
The team is a mix of ex-Google and ex-Zillow veterans who previously worked on speech recognition, sentiment analysis, ad targeting, IP geolocation, payments, and more.
We'd really love people with expertise in or passion for machine learning, natural language processing, map reduce, data mining, or related areas. People at all degree levels (PhD, MS, BS) are welcome. For those who haven't done A.I. or machine learning coursework/research, note that it's really helpful to have a strong background in math, e.g., linear algebra, probability, and calculus.
If this sounds fun, shoot a resume over to jobs@siftscience.com! Thanks.
